If you have any one of the following vehicles, you'll be affected by the proposed changes.

Manassas Park is taking new steps to enforce the city's parking laws.
The city has a lack of public parking, especially in the area of Old Centreville Road, a side street that runs parallel to the city's main avenue, Route 28.
People who don't live along Old Centreville Road park their cars there, leaving residents to battle it out with out-of-towners for a parking space.

MANASSAS PARK -- A growing number of drivers are parking their vehicles in Manassas Park neighborhoods. And, it's becoming an issue city leaders must address.
"There's only so much space," said Donald Shuemaker, a councilman on the Manassas Park Governing Body. "Our population is growing.”
The nation's economy is hot, and development around the region is increasing. Because of that, officials say there are more construction and commercial vehicles parked in residential areas in Manassas Park.
