I would suggest illegal. Vehicles are not supposed to cross the solid white line
.

and attempting to show that it is not illegal to cross a solid line. And cogent to your initial post which asked if it was legal for the landscaper to park in the lane. Post #5 used the solid line argument to say that the landscaper's parking was illegal because of the solid line being crossed. That, so far, has been the only posting attempting to establish a legal argument against the landscaper. Several have posted arguments based on inconvenience or lack of consideration. I agree with those. I await someone pointing to a law that says they cannot park that way.
