Inconsiderate Parking - Please respect our neighbours

Please Respect our Neighbours Reminder to Parents – Respect for Our Neighbours We have received further concerns from local residents regarding parking, a letter from one resident is attached to this notice. Please be considerate of our neighbours by: • Not parking on or blocking private driveways. • Keeping pavements clear for pedestrians, pushchairs, and wheelchair users. • Parking safely and legally, even if it means walking a little further to school. We value our positive relationships with our local community and ask everyone to show respect, kindness, and consideration at all times. Thank you for your continued support and cooperation.   Dear Mr Small, I am writing to raise a formal complaint about parents using the private residential car park at Clan Ranald House, when dropping off and collecting their children from your school. On several occasions, parents have parked in residents’ privately owned parking spaces, including my own. This prevents residents from parking in spaces they own and are entitled to use. One particular parent doing this repeatedly drives a black/charcoal grey Tesla with but she is not the only one. This is private land. These spaces are not public parking or an extension of the school’s drop-off and collection facilities. Using someone’s privately owned parking space without permission is no more acceptable than pulling onto their driveway and leaving your car there while collecting a child. The fact that a parent may only intend to stay for a few minutes does not make this acceptable or remove the inconvenience caused. I appreciate that the school does not control every parent’s behaviour. However, given that this is happening during school drop-off and collection, I expect the school to address it directly and urgently with parents. Please send a clear communication to all parents and carers stating that they must not enter or park in our private residential car park, or use residents’ parking spaces, for school drop-offs or collections. Please make clear that this applies even for a brief stop. Residents should not have to find alternative parking or wait for parents to return before they can use their own spaces. We should also not have to repeatedly confront people over something that should be a matter of basic respect for other people’s property.
