| Parking, Traffic Meter
'Problems Explained
The old problem of parkec
' cars and expired traffic meters
has long been a problem foi
motorists and the city police.
The motorist doesn’t warn
to get a ticket for illegal park
ing and the police are reluct
ant to issue tickets for th<
same. However, the police ar<
duty bound to issue a ticket il
a vehicle is overdue on th<
meter fare and a city ordi
nance says they must issue i
ticket.
The problem has been undei
constant study since the ar
rival here of Roland E. Vick'
ery, Kodiak chief of police,
He recently stated: If a motor
ist drives into a parking am
and places a "token” (usual j
I five cent piece) in the meter
i and it does not work, to im
■ mediately phone the police de
I partment on phone 2011. A
; I patrolman will come immedi
. ately to the area and check
the meter.
“If the motorist has de
posited one or more coins and
the meter does not work the
policeman will check the
meter and if it shows a mal
function the policeman will
see that the motorist receives
his token or else gets his legal
amount of time in the parking
area,” Vickery said yesterday.
We are trying to cooperate
with the Kodiak motorist and
we are asking that they co
operate with my department,
Vickery said.
Several instances where
vehicles have been left in
front of business and resi
dences for four or five days
has been called to the atten
tion of the police. ” This isn’t
fair to other motorists or to
the business or resident con
cerned. Such instances will
eventually result in the im
pounding of the vehicles in
the city traffic pound.” Vick
ery explained
Thursday the chief and his
officers spent several hours
“dispersing” a pack of dogs.
The animals were causing a
great amount of noise and
confusion.
“We hate to take anyone's
pet, but unless owners retain
their animals at home we are
going to start picking them
up,” Vickery declared.
Penalty Fee
Not Needed
In Filing
Land may be registered at
the U. S. Commissioner’s of
Ifice without paying the five
'dollar penalty for late filing,
according to an opinion by J.
Gerald Williams, attorney
general for the territory.
The above article appeared
in a recent issue of the An
chorage News. The News
article stated that Gordon
Hartlieb, Anchorage U. S.
Commissioner, obtained the
information through a tele
phone conversation with Wil
liams.
Williams is reported to have
said that the five dollar penal
ty which went into effect was
the responsibility of the terri
tory, and not the commis
sioner.
Locally, U. S. Commissioner
A. M. Vokacek said she had
received a letter and question -
aire from W. A. Chipperfield,
Territorial Land Commis
sioner. Chipperfield did not in
struct the commissioner to col
lect the penalty. He indicated
he would stiil recommend the
filing of requirements to elimi
nate the law at the next ses
sion of the Territorial Legis
' lature.
