Ms.Defoe-Surprenant,
I called you earlier this afternoon wanting to confirm the receipt of
the below email and if received whether you had a chance to discuss the
matter with your manager. Had left VM in this regard.
Chris Robinson in the Code Enforcement states that parking in private
property is no longer in his realm as it is with the local PD now. He
asked me to get in touch with the local police this afternoon when our
back door was yet again blocked . Local police say they cannot do
anything as it is a private property. Left VM to Chris Robinson on what
the local PD stated and didn't hear back from him.
Therefore as stated yesterday my question is how did the city approve
the expansion of Southern Charm despite knowing very well the parking
issues in the plaza. It is no secret that Southern Charm and the
landlord were pulled up by the city for illegal parking in the adjacent
property racking up hefty fines.Despite that permits for 2 expansions
were approved by the city.Now with code enforcement and local PD saying
it's not their responsibility answer to our question from planning and
zoning dept. is much more pertinent and imperative.
Yesterday you asked if we had documentation? Please find a link below
with all the communication since 2nd August 2018 (including photos)
which we had with the Land Lord on this parking matter. We too are
paying same taxes and have the same rights as any other business in the
city therefore expect transparency and probity from local government
especially when their decision is affecting our business.
Looking forward for your response.
Thanks
Sri

Hello Ms.Defoe-Surprenant,
Thanks for taking time earlier this afternoon in discussing
about the parking situation at the above address.
Please find the link to the photos of newly created parking
spaces added to theparking lot below:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B-l_hdI3D6hILUw2VWJmQjFnRkk?usp=
sharing
a.The photos start from the front of the property
b.Then proceeded to take photos of new spaces added from the
back of our store i.e. Edible Arrangements working my way to the back of
the Southern Charm
c.Finally the one new spot created by the drive through window
of Edible Arrangements
d.Note that vehicles are parked even before the doors in the
back , as the way the lots have been drawn it appears they too are legit
parking spaces.
Hope this helps you in figuring out variances if any between
what was approved and what is currently in place. And attached to this
email are photos(different from the one under the link) showing how
these newly created parking spots both in the front and in the back have
created a bottleneck with almost no maneuvering space for all of our
suppliers delivery vehicles including UPS etc to get to the back due to
.lack of clearance.As shown in the photos even our small delivery
vehicle is not able to get through.Didn't want to confuse you therefore
separated the photos of the new spots from the ones showing the issues
posed by them.
If you need any clarification please do not hesitate to call me
at 4074896234.
Thank You
Sri
P.S. An email with formal complaint to Code Enforcement will be
sent tomorrow after compiling all the correspondence we've had with the
Land Lord the past 18 months
