If street parking on narrow side streets is such an issue the city could always make the problem sections parking on one side only.  I will admit that even on post and college with people parked on both sides at night it can get rather tight for safe pedestrian and traffic movement.

No doubt.  Do you think a couple of fire trucks could navigate through there?

Just throwing this out there:  there wasn't as much of a problem with street space and parking when the streets were one way.  Not that the general navigation was better... just an observation....

Yeah right.  Seriously though.  Rather than push against the restaurant why don't they push the city towards marking the streets for safe parking and let them enforce it with tow trucks.   I've seen that in planty of other historic districts in large cities, seems to work and doesn't seem to stop anyone from patronizing the businesses in those areas.

I bought my house on College St when it was a one way street, and over the past seven years or so I've been around for at least half a dozen speeding car vs. parked car collisions.  Since the street has become clogged with parked cars, I haven't encountered one such incident.  In my experience, a crowded street causes drivers to slow down and NOT smash into my or my neighbors vehicles.  I'm glad to no longer live on a one-way thoroughfare.  And I've never seen cars parked on College Street blocking driveways - a word to the (not-so) wise - I drive a Jeep, and my front bumper is already plenty banged up.  If you DO block my driveway, I'll move your car out of the way :-)

Welcome to Oakleaf I mean Riverside.  The sad part is how many people wish that was how you should describe Riverside.

Oakleaf residents can a least rest easy in that their neighborhoods are not subject to such impacts.

Same for Silverleaf.

They should be worrying about having to pay a toll to get home or burn more time taking a network of goat's paths to avoid the toll booth. Kickback's is a pimple on the ass of what's headed Oakleaf's way.

Yes, Oakleaf has far bigger issues than whether or not a restaurant can provide enough parking.

Lots of great deals in Oakleaf right now.  Some even under $50 sqft......Maybe it's time for those who can't cope with burdens of living in Riverside to find that nice homestead free of commercial interference.
