Tuesday night’s ACONA meeting was a wide-ranging look at traffic and parking complaints in Altadena — and if any conclusion can be drawn, it’s that Altadena is a grab-bag of parking rules.
Guests included Altadena CHP officers Thomas Miller and Xavier Behar and Tommy Mutteraid and Jennifer Aborida of the county Traffic and Lighting Division.
Much of the discussion involved drop-off and pick-up problems around St. Elizabeth’s School, which appears to be a no-man’s land: residents reported that they would complain to the sheriff, who say call the California Highway Patrol (which handles traffic problems in Altadena), who would say call the Pasadena Police Department (because Woodbury Road in that part of town is the dividing line between Pasadena and Altadena — the school’s on the north side of the street, but if the parents are illegally parking on the south side of the street, it’s a Pasadena problem).
