Default Landscapers Parked in Cart Lane

Every one of those homes has a FRONT yard on a residential street where the landscapers can park. The only reason they park in the cart lane is LAZINESS, there is no NEED for them to park closer to the backyard. This is really no different than parking in the fire lane at a strip mall because it is more "convenient"


LAZINESS as well as the homeowners desire not to have them trample through the front and side yards.
