CLEANER NEEDED JAY HAMBURGER/PARK RECORD There have been numerous police reports involving drop-and-load violations since the end of the Sundance Film Festival in early February. City Hall introduced the zones in December and suspended them for Sundance before they returned at the end of the event. The cases mounted again after close of Sundance JAY HAMBURGER The Park Record Some of the drama moved from the screening rooms back onto Main Street when the Sundance Film Festival ended. Park City suspended the drop-and-load parking zones along Main Street during Sundance as part of the overall traffic and parking plan for the event. The drop-and-load zones returned after Sundance, and there have been numerous issues in the two-plus weeks since then. The drop-and-load zones debuted in December and set aside certain parking spots for vehicles with the proper permit. The permits are available to anyone, but vehicles belonging to taxi companies and shuttle firms have been seen frequently using the spots. The permits cost $200. The Park City Police Department since December has logged numerous cases involving violations. In many of the cases, drivers without a permit pull into a drop-and-load zone, prompting the police to respond. There was a string of cases that stretched through the early weeks of the program. The cases temporarily ceased as the Sundance operations plan on Main Street was put in place. The issues, though, restarted when the Sundance operations ended with the close of the event. Police Department logs in recent weeks show traffic stops prompted by drop-andload violations or reports to the police about problems in the zones. It has appeared the issues have generally subsided since the introduction of the program, but the recent cases show ongoing confusion nonetheless. In some of the cases, vehicles were seen without anybody inside in a drop-and-load zone while in other cases drivers were spotted stopping in the road to pick someone up, impeding the traffic.
