As the weather is warmer and the days are longer, our friends and neighbors are spending more time outside. Drivers - you can help keep everyone safe by
- Driving the speed limit
- Putting away the distractions. This includes cell phones (even when on hands-free), eating, and looking for things.   
   Even other people in the vehicle can distract the driver.
- Being on the lookout at intersections, driveways and when backing
- Treating people on bikes as a motor vehicle as they have a legal right to be on the road

Please be reminded that homeowners are not allowed to use the curb/on street parking as a permanent place to park their vehicles. On street parking is a covenant violation, as well as a traffic hazard, and also makes the neighborhood look cluttered and un-kept. The Community Guidelines state the following: “All vehicles shall be parked only in garages, driveways; and in exceptional cases one vehicle may be parked on the city street preferably in front of the resident home. Residents must maximize use of Garages and Driveways before using on-street parking.
