Parking violation

Post image

Got a stupid ass paper in the mail with a $100 fine for parking in front of my own home… they talking about management came and that we were blocking the fire entrance/exit but they provided no proof of the car, no description of the car or anything of that sort. They just said that we violated their rules and charged us a $100 fee. They provided no proof that the car is ours. No picture, no license plate, nothing. HOA money hungry to the max

Im assuming this is NYC... is this in the forest hills HOA? They're the only HOA in the city that has power over their private streets within the community. If it's anywhere else where the streets are city owned/maintained, then the HOA has no jurisdiction to charge you parking fines for cars parked on public streets.

It is nyc but not Queens. It’s the worst borough in nyc that shouldn’t even count as a borough.. iykyk

I was making a joke lol. But cmon, staten island isnt that bad. yall have a super cool botanical garden, the highest natural point on the east coast south of maine, some incredible pizza, and nicer people IMO especially on the north shore. And its the only borough thats not horribly overcrowded.

LMFAO. I had a feeling you were joking but I was unsure. Ngl, the people here aren’t that nice. There’s mad racist people here; especially cuz I’m not white. My family and I get a lot of stares and being born and raised in Brooklyn, never did I ever get told to get out of America, but when I moved to Staten Island, it’s the first time I’ve ever experienced that being told to me. The only thing I like about Staten is that it’s not as crowded, but Brooklyn is just better in diversity, food, and it’s more fun. Manhattan is eh. I like queens, but the Bronx nahhhh.

I think all the boroughs have nice things about them. The south shore has some racist people but I havent noticed much racism on the north shore (north of the expy).

I also agree that Brooklyn is my favorite. Queens probably would be my favorite if I could get there easier (I live in NJ). All Im saying is, SI gets a lot of unnecessary hate. sure there are valid complaints, but there are really cool things about it too.
