Subje(~t: Caribbean Blvd. Port Largo.
Mayor Murphy I'm writing this letter concerning the parking problems on Caribbean
Blvd. in Port Largo. As you are aware over the years this area for Port Largo has seen
substa:ntial growth in new residential construction. This along with the hotel, Coconuts
and Ocean Divers has resulted in some traffic issues. The main issue is the parking by the
custonlers that utilize the businesses on Caribbean Blvd. Most of the customers will park
on the county right away and block traffic flow and on the weekends this makes it very
hard for residents to get through that area. I feel it is necessary to correct this problem
and the only way we can do this is to post no parking sign on the county right away near
the business. I have meet with Allen White from the county code enforcement and he also
agrees that this is an area that has a problem with the parking. Mr. White also feels that
the only way we can solve the problem is to install no parking signs. So I'm asking that
you please consider making this area of Caribbean Blvd. a no parking on county right
away area. Thank you for your consideratio.n in this matter.
