Oh for sure, there are several signs. Typically those signs are meant to discourage prolonged parking in my personal experience. If you're there for a long time (let's say a long time is 10 minutes) I totally get it, you're congesting the lot and it becomes a problem. It's the way they go about it, with the tow truck driver just sitting there for hours parked around the corner just waiting for unsuspecting victims. It really rubs me the wrong way.
It would be nice if Christians had some parking spots though I do agree with you there!

Years ago, the 7-Eleven were more lenient with folks parking there for short periods to hit one of the other establishments, they even had a couple of spots where servers at the Village could park. But it started getting abused, the parking lot was always full with folks not going into the 7-Eleven, and that's when they introduced the zero-tolerance policy. I think the abuse escalated when VCU turned the parking lot across the street into dorms. As for the handicap patron, there is a reserved spot for HC placards in front of the Village, and I believe a couple more along Grace not far from Christian's...

I didn't know that! I've only worked in the fan for the last couple years and I have personally never seen it full.
Regardless of the other HC spots it still seemed slimy to me.

don't illegally park and you won't get towed. This is the most ridiculous post I've seen lately. wtf. If a neighborhood business doesn't have enough spots, that's not 7/11s fault.

If there are signs and people are parking there anyway to go to a different business, it’s the tow company’s job to tow them. If anyone is being the parasite in this case, it is the person knowingly parking in the spots designated for 711’s customers.
