Resident raises overnight-parking complaints at Maverick truck stop; staff advise documentation and police contact
Summary
A resident said semis, RVs and travel trailers are parking overnight at a new Maverick truck stop despite assurances there would be no overnight parking; staff advised collecting photographic evidence and contacting police; Maverick may be subject to citation if it permits overnight parking on its property.
A Price resident used public comment to say a newly opened Maverick truck stop is allowing semis, travel trailers and RVs to park overnight, creating noise and sleep disturbance for nearby neighbors.
The resident said the business had assured officials there would be no overnight parking but that semis and RVs are regularly present; the resident lives two houses from the facility and said truck engines run into the night. Council members and staff said enforcement starts with citizen documentation: take photographs, call police and submit complaints so staff and police can investigate whether the property is violating any conditions.
City staff suggested contacting the police when vehicles remain parked for hours; staff said if the business is not enforcing its own no-overnight-parking rules the city could pursue enforcement and the business itself could be cited. Staff recommended residents first report incidents and said a contact email for staff will be provided for complaints.
No formal enforcement action was recorded during the meeting; staff said they are fielding complaints and will follow up based on documentation submitted by residents.
