LITTLE ROCK FIRE DEPARTMENT STILL BREAKS PARKING LAWS FOR PERSONAL REASONS - CHIEF REFUSES TO RESPOND TO QUESTIONS

In March, we posted a story about the Little Rock Fire Department flagrantly violating parking laws for personal use. Click here to read it.

LRFD Chief Gregory Summers assured us that he had addressed the issue.

Apparently he told his firemen that they could park anywhere, anytime, for any reason.

We say that because on August 29th, we observed that his employees had parked a truck in a "no parking anytime" zone, within an intersection and right next to a fire hydrant on Polk Street just east on the Height Kroger store.






Apparently it is a regular occurrence at the Height's Kroger for the Fire Department to break the law while shopping for groceries. 

Search for "R and Polk Streets" on Google Earth street view and see what you find.

This is what you will find, LRFD Engine 1 parked in a "no parking anytime zone", on the wrong side of the street!  What assclowns.





Chief Summers did not respond to an email we sent and we don't think he will.  If he actually told his employees to follow the law, he should be furious that his firemen are setting such a bad example by breaking the law to eat lunch and grocery shop and making him look like a buffoon.

Perhaps a change is needed in city government and then a house cleaning for poor examples of leadership in city departments.
