Figure out a shuttle for a Branford hotel block

I’ve been yelled at for parking a cop car in areas marked no parking and I’ve also been yelled at for “taking up” marked spots in a cruiser.

Considering that parking is at a premium, especially downtown, I personally feel it’s better that city cars don’t take actual spots as long as they aren’t blocking traffic, crosswalks, etc.

What are the chances that new haven lost this vehicle?

Thanks everyone! 🙌🏽

Wait...did this get reported on February 10, then acknowledged on October 19 and only investigated six days after that? If someone reports an illegally parked car and you go looking for it eight months later the chances are decent you're not going to find it.

I stopped using See Click Fix a long time ago because I found the interface too clumsy and frustrating. But I don't remember it being this futile.

You’ll be fine you have the venue. Work with a hotel for block of rooms in advance . If doing a restaurant time, pick one and make early plans. One bonus is I think there are extra “seats” compared to pre Covid, more hotel rooms; Hotel Marcel and Cambria Hotel are new, and seems to be more restaurants…

Nightshade!

Bittersweet nightshade. Toxic but not deadly

That looks like nightshade to me. Very poisonous.

It’s not illegal if the are exempt.

If this were some emergency vehicle, I'd be fine with it. It isn't. It's some lazy ass middle manager at the city who is too lazy to find a real fucking parking spot. So fuck that shit dude.

This vehicle is there every. Single day. All damn day. Illegally parked and partially blocking Orange St. The city has no problem illegally ticketing residents, but sees no issue with their own vehicles parked all day, every day illegally.

For fuck’s sake, of course official vehicles are exempt. If they weren’t then a. There would be fewer parking spots available for everyone else and b. We’d have to hire more people to make up for the time they waste parking when their jobs take them to multiple high-traffic locations every day.

It’s the same if you work on an ambulance and you need to pee. You pull over in front of a fire hydrant and go to Starbucks, you don’t park a block away.

Secure hotel room blocks asap! And maybe a rehearsal dinner venue. But otherwise if your venue has parking, I think you’ll be fine 😊

the parking is the big thing here, i'm pretty sure, so that's a big relief. it might get a little inconvenient here & there but if you've already got your vendors & venue booked & that venue has a place for people to park their cars, you've circumvented the worst challenges this might present. no massive disaster.

just don't count on finding many hotel rooms available in the area & stress to any guests that might need them that they absolutely should book theirs, like, NOW.

Where is the venue? Can you add more details?

there’s no option to reschedule, all my other vendors are booked and since covid wedding related things have been booking up at least a year in advance

thankfully, the venue has parking included

I hate to laugh, but it’s a freakin NIGHTMARE!!! How can they not tell you about this? This is worse than Yale and Q graduation day!

I worked in the NH hotel industry for 5-6 years. You have to start calling hotels immediately in NH and see if you can get room blocks and if that doesn’t work you might have to look in West Haven, Milford, Orange, east haven, Branford. I wish you all the best hopefully my suggestions help

no dice yet :(

i am so sorry to report this, but as a longtime new haven resident i gotta tell you, it... it might be kind of bad. does the venue have its own parking facility? is there no way you can reschedule this far out?

sorry edited for clarity, it would be next years family weekend
