The complex has enough parking spaces for just 75% of the apartments.
Hall Manor resident Dolisa Underwood estimates that she has spent between $1,200 and $1,400 in towing fees since March 2021.Underwood has lived at the lower-income Harrisburg housing complex for nine years. She says that for eight of the nine years, she never had any issues.
Underwood has talked to Hall Manor’s management, the housing authority and the towing company itself several times, trying to figure out a solution. Underwood said she has video of cars illegally parked on the side of the road or double parked in the parking lot, but the tow truck would just drive by those cars.
The housing authority says it’s aware of the issue, and finding a good answer just isn’t that simple. Manns said they believe there are a lot more unauthorized vehicles that do not have valid inspection stickers, and that was what prompted them to begin towing enforcement in March 2021.When it comes to people parking on the street, public transportation wasn’t able to get through or might damage a vehicle trying to squeeze through over-congested streets, Manns said.“We can’t have people doing that. We would, of course, enforce that,” Manns said.
The only issue with bringing in the plate reader system is the cost, Manns said. HHA will be paying for it, so there is no change to the residents’ rent. But they are having to negotiate the price. There’s no denying that there is a safety issue with not being able to park near home. Manns said he knows it’s a safety and convenience issue.
And now, he said HHA is trying to take on more so that they can shield the residents from the cost of the license plate reader, which he expects to have in operation soon. Although they have started, this would be a multi-year project and would include getting resident input before anything happened. In the meantime, they have to try small fixes.
