I was about to head for work, saw a huge van completely block my driveway. Immediately called FVPD…read more The voice on the other side treated me respectfully and helped me professionally and swiftly. An officer arrived within minutes. Wow! He knew just how to handle the situation. Gave the violator a ticket. Explained to him that next time this happens, the vehicle will be towed. The violator moved his van so we could go to work. I hope there won't be a third time. Tips to citizens: - If the violator suggests to you that instead of you calling the police, you should go knocking door to door to find out whose vehicle it is to ask them to move it, do NOT fall for that BS. Immediately educate the prankster. Tell them straight up that you don't have time to compensate for their laziness (not in those words, if you wanna be courteous). THEY should be responsible. They should be checking the street every 5min to see if there's an open spot, and move their car out of the way. Why should you be burdened for their incompetence? - They may lie that the street was full when they were looking for a space. Since you don't have the evidence to disprove this claim, don't try to, even if you already know there's ALWAYS parking room at the end of the road. Just keep to yourself your realization that they are liars and are trying to play mind games with you. This awareness will reduce your chances of falling for their tricks. Instead, learn street smarts and social skills quickly, so you become sharper at catching mind games and how to counter them while you're young.

I had an extremely frustrating and unfair experience with parking enforcement in Huntington Beach…read more Back in July, I did pay for parking. I only had cash, so my friend paid the $23 parking fee for me. Unfortunately, when entering my license plate number, he was off by one letter. When we returned to my car, I found a $58 parking ticket -- despite the fact that parking had been paid for. This was clearly an honest, verifiable mistake, not an attempt to avoid paying. At the time, I planned to resolve it the next time I was in the area. However, I live nearly 45 miles away, and life got in the way. When I later went to register my car, I discovered there was now a DMV hold, and the ticket had increased to $83. I immediately contacted the police department, explained that parking had been paid and that the issue was a one-letter license plate error. I was told there was nothing that could be done because I didn't contest it within 21 days -- even though the ticket was issued under incorrect circumstances. When I asked to see a judge, I was told that option was "no longer available" and that my only choice was to pay. No review. No discretion. No accountability. This doesn't feel like enforcement -- it feels like extortion. A system that acknowledges no human error and provides zero recourse after an arbitrary deadline is fundamentally unfair. Holding someone's DMV registration hostage over a paid parking mistake is excessive and unreasonable. I'm incredibly disappointed in how rigid and dismissive this process is, and I hope the city seriously reconsiders how situations like this are handled.

I was here in Long Beach watching the news and getting ready for school when I watched as the second plane hit the 2nd tower. That memory has been with me since. While on a weekend trip to san diego we visited the air and space museum and were surprised to see a cruiser on display that was actually at ground zero! When I got back I thought to myself "I wonder if there's other artifacts that I can see around town". A quick search showed that there were pieces of steel from the towers here. So on 9/11 of last year, we drove out here to see the memorial and have a moment of silence for the victims. The memorial is located at the bottom of the staircase in a pentagon shaped base and honors all lost in the towers, flights as well as first responders. In the center stands a steel beam that was part of WTC donated by NYC Fire and Police. It's quite surreal seeing an object from that dark day in history.
