As a Motor Coach operator I came to Washington DC all the time and I have a hard time trying to find a parking even though we must pay a fee to come into the city.
They supplied us with ten parking spots in the back of the park , about 7 on Independence, and few other spots.
There are about over 500 coaches a day, when the season is high, trying to find parking, where they can cut their engines off and not pollute DC. But
DC has now taken the few parking spaces away from the motor coaches like in the Hans park where are the Coaches going to park now? Let the drives come on one accord and stand together to petition the Government for parking in Washington D.C. and stop this senseless ticketing of the motor coach operators because they can not find parking.
The reach of this petition has hit a point where the city officials can no longer ignore the administrative impact of our request. I am currently drafting a formal letter to the District Department of Transportation to demand a meeting regarding the removal of coach parking zones. Expect further updates once I receive confirmation of a sit-down appointment.
