Problem is, residents cannot park to go to the pool. Solution: Restrict weekday at SOMS parking when school is out to after 9 a.m.?   campbell29 Citizen Username: Campbell29 Post Number: 29 Registered: 4-2002 Posted on Wednesday, July 16, 2003 - 11:21 am:        I think there is also quite a few cars parked there for the staff of the camp being run out of SOMS. This morning when I parked to drop off my child, someone had actually "reserved" a spot by putting two folding chairs in one.   mrosner Citizen Username: Mrosner Post Number: 505 Registered: 4-2002 Posted on Wednesday, July 16, 2003 - 11:57 am:        The problem was rasied last night at the parking authority meeting. The BOE controls the lot and the village has no jurisdiction there. We are looking at short-term and long-term solutions and I will pass our suggestions on to the BOE and see if we can fix this problem. The problems is complicated by the fact that the Adult school runs many classes at the middle school.   dgm Citizen Username: Dgm Post Number: 127 Registered: 5-2001 Posted on Wednesday, July 16, 2003 - 12:10 pm:        does the adult school offer classes during the day?   mrosner Citizen Username: Mrosner Post Number: 506 Registered: 4-2002 Posted on Wednesday, July 16, 2003 - 2:36 pm:        There are classes for children during the day.   sac Citizen Username: Sac Post Number: 22 Registered: 5-2001 Posted on Thursday, July 17, 2003 - 11:57 am:        The Adult School Summer program usually is held at CHS, but was moved to SOMS this year. I suspect that this resulted in the parking situation taking some people by surprise this summer.   Sarah Hayden Citizen Username: Sarah_hayden Post Number: 7 Registered: 2-2003 Posted on Wednesday, July 23, 2003 - 10:42 am:        It would really help alot if there were parking space lines painted on that parking lot! As it is, cars are parked so far away from each other - if there were lines, the cars would park closer allowing for more parking spaces.
