Division Street and the shared fence line with Mr. Rios' westerly next -door neighbor at 622 East
Division Street is approximately 60 feet, allowing parking for up to three standard -sized vehicles,
but safety concerns arise when vehicles are parked at this location due to insufficient visibility
from a steep vertical crest curve when looking west.

front of the busy residential area on East Division Street to red curb "No Parking" to enhance
safety, and as a preventive measure for downstream residents from egressing their property.
