Dear Editor,
For some time now there has been a problem in Pike Street Kitty between the Railway Line and Lamaha Street, and despite several complaints to City Hall, it continues and is growing.
A gentleman rented his downstairs flat to a mechanic shop and this has led to vehicles being parked for months on the parapet ‒ not just in front of his lot but in front of several lots, including mine. In many instances the narrow road is blocked as they take in additional work that is done on the roadway!
No one can park where they live since all the space is taken up by the mechanic shop. Speaking to the property owner is a futile exercise as he made me to understand that he has a friend in government and he pays taxes.
As mentioned before, this matter was taken to City Hall but to date nothing has been done. I would be grateful if this issue could be highlighted and the relevant authorities bring some ease to the citizens of Pike Street, Kitty.
Yours faithfully,
Stan Gouveia
