RE: Request for Traffic Control Device – Handicapped Accessible Parking Space Sign
Dear Ms. Brown:
At its January 12, 2021 meeting, the Board of Public Works denied your request for the
installation of a handicapped accessible parking space sign at 1918 S. Jackson St., as it does not
meet the requirements.
The Ordinance for handicapped parking space sign is written for 1) a handicapped vehicle
associated with a driver who has medical proof of handicap recognized by the Bureau of Motor
Vehicles and who resides at a residence where the space is being reserved and 2) that does not
have a driveway that offers ease of handicapped access. After review of your application and
the area in front of your home, it was determined that there is a garage off the alley with a
walkway directly to the rear of the house that will provide better access. Also, parking is allowed
on both sides of Jackson St. and access to the front door involves steps.
If you have any further questions regarding this matter, please call this office at (574) 235-9251.
Sincerely,
/s/ Anne Fuchs
