Bob,

We have put the final touches on the carparkedinbikelane@spokanepolice.org email address. We are ready to field complaints and send out letters when we receive all of the necessary information.

In order for us to act on the information we will need the following:

• accurate location (that can be an address that the vehicle is in front of or “mid block of the 2700 block of S. E. Blvd,” etc.)
  
• accurate description of the vehicle (make, model, color)
  
• time and date of violation
  
• photograph of vehicle parked in the bike lane (this can be attached to the email)
  

We will send out a notice to the registered owner on the first violation. We will add repeat violators to our Traffic Hotline for officers to investigate further which could include issuing infractions.

We welcome you to put this address out at your BAB meetings and publicize it as much as you can.

Thanks,
Jason
