When submitting a Wayspot Appeal, make sure to include as much of the following information as possible:
Are you sure its on SFPRP?
Property line seems to end at the footpath, meaning it would not be on SFPRP as its on the other side of the footpath.
I would however like to point out that there is a fire hydrant in the middle of the piece, therefore making it strictly ineligible due to possible interference of emergency operations if it is real and in use.
This is very similar to the LFLs you reported here yesterday. Again, they were on the grass between the path and the road and did not appear to be on SFPRP.
I asked you at the time why you thought this was the case, but I don’t think you responded.
This has come up in the past. In Chicago, this strip is specifically public property. It can be referred to as “public way” or “parkway” but definitely belongs to the city. The homeowner is required to maintain it, and is allowed to put things on it, but the city has the right to rip anything out if they need to. So whatever else this is, this is not SFPRP. By law.
(Now whether Chicago law applies to Oak Park, I am not certain. But it is in the same general area.)
