Now into the second week that the Shorewood High School Parking Lot has been closed -------- there is an inordinate amount of vehicles and traffic using it.
Yesterday evening, October 2, 2007 while I was at the Fitness Center between about 6:00 and 7:30 pm, I was amazed at how much use the “Closed” parking lot was getting.
Ever since its closure, there have been about 4 or 5 vehicles going in and out of the lot, and being parked overnight. I don’t know if they belong to the contractor, the school system or the village.
Last evening however, in addition to those vehicles, I saw about 3 or 4 cars, a high end SUV, and a motorcycle using the lot.
They simply go up the service drive south of the Admin building, and turn into the lot at the sidewalk.
I also noted that virtually all the available parking along the south side of the Administration building was full. Could all those vehicles parking in the “Closed” lot belong to school board members or staff ?
The real shame here is not that some innovative folks have found a way to get into the lot --- the real shame is that our elected officials and administration have not kept the lot open --- which as I posted previously, would have been very easy to do.
