Check out the new "Zoneloading"

What kind of wizard does it take to paint lane lines in parking lots? I wonder if the Work Order was written that way and approved as written.

OK, all you Zones out there, there's your loading spot. Check out the shopping center on the northeast corner of Route 47 and Irving Rd., just north of Wendy's.

But does it really make any difference in Woodstock to paint lane lines for a Loading Zone? Until the property owner contracts with the Woodstock Police Department, the police cannot enforce parking in a loading zone. Just check out the Loading Zone at the Jewel-Osco, where customers routinely park (not just "stop") their cars and even go into the store to shop, leaving the cars empty or occupied just by passengers.

Thanks to the reader who sent me this photo.
