Dear OTA Parents and Guardians:
Parking Enforcement has warned us that they will ticket cars waiting in line to pickup children if your car is blocking:

• Driveways;
• Red Zones; or the
• Handicap Zone in front of the school

****

We are working with the city to see what we can do to remove some of these new restrictions, but in the meantime please beware.

We have also had some complaints from the police and the neighborhood association and we’d like to pass on a few SAFETY and TICKET-AVOIDANCE reminders:

• Please Drop-off or Pickup your children by Car except in emergencies or when you have an appointment (the more foot traffic and parking/pulling out of cars we have the greater the congestion and greater the chance of accidents).
• Use the People Gates–not the driveways– when you do have to enter or exit the playground area during drop-off.
• Please please Please do not block the driveways either in front of OTA or in front of the San Diego Avenue condos while waiting to turn into the playground. We have had complaints from residents about not being able to enter or exit their garages.

San Diego Avenue condominiums: please do not block these driveways. Thank you!
