Page 4 THE VILLADOM TIMES I • March 24, 2010 Wyckoff Parking changes voted: Stickers now available by John Koster Members of the Wyckoff Township Committee reminded motorists that parking stickers are available for weekday use of the parking lot behind the Cornerstone Christian Church as they adopted an ordinance that terminates all-day commuter parking along some nearby streets. The new ordinance eliminates all-day parking in the vicinity of the Coolidge School, where as many as 15 cars are routinely parked each working day while the owners apparently take the commuter bus to New York City. Most of the owners are not Wyckoff residents. The ordinance also prohibits parking between 10 a.m. and noon on Cottage Road, Coolidge Terrace, Nancy Lane, Fox Hollow Road, Deep Brook Road, Sunrise Drive, Hilltop Lane, Megan Court, and Circle Drive. The two-hour limit is meant to restrict all-day commuter parking, but to allow residents who wish to visit people in the neighborhood to park as convenient. Wyckoff Police Chief Benjamin Fox recommended the new regulations after noting that all-day parking along Nancy Lane leads to safety problems for parents who are picking up or dropping off children at the Coolidge School. In addition, he said the parked cars have been causing problems for residents of the streets when they back out of their own driveways, and have led to problems with mail delivery, leaf disposal, line-of-sight issues, and some lawn damage. Nancy Lane will be posted to forbid all-day parking and the other roads will be posted only if commuter overflow is visible on those roads as Nancy Lane is closed for commuter parking use. Police will speak to commuters who attempt to continue the practice.
