Here we have another employee of FOX 5 abusing his "EXPIRED" press placard. He is around the corner from FOX and not at the location of a news assignment he is actively covering.

FOX 5 is a horrible neighbor and abuses the residents of the community on a daily basis,

Representatives from FOX 5 told the transportation committee of community board 8 a week ago that they would get this under control and agred such parking was not permitted based on the rules stated on the press placards.

The fact is that the only way to deal with this is to pull the rug out from under them and return the street and any abused restricted parking street to the community as normal street parking.

The signage in manhattan is meaningless. If the sign indicates NO PARKING EXPEPT TRUCKS LOADING AND UNLOADING the NYPD parks there as they do at parking meters without dropping as much as a dime. If the signs indicate NO PARKING, The NYP, MD's, DDs and other placard holders park there.

So exactly what is restricted parking other than free reserved street parking for the politically connected and morally corrupt, and all at resident inconvenience and expense.

Mayor Bloomberg when do you do the right thing for the residents of the community? Perhaps you and the police commissioner need some private councilling on the concept of right and wrong and a little tutoring on ethics!

Community board 8 please act on the recent resident request to return this street to normal street parking and do the same in all abused restricted parking areas.

Commuters are supposed to be encouraged to use mass transit, Why would they do so if the city is providing them with free reserved street parking right where they work?
