Unjust Parking Rules in Mandaluyong

I've seen this kind of parking rule in Daly City, California where I used to live. It's pretty helpful. It allows street sweepers clean the gutters. Those who have cars can pretty much park at the opposite side or other street corners near where they live. There aren't a lot of cars on the streets because houses there have garages. The design is mandated by the city. So no one can put up their homes without a single car garage. The rule also happens once-a-week so you're not burdened without a parking space.

Check this one that popped along the streets of Barangay Highway Hills' Cordillera street and perhaps all the other street corners of the community.

Did the city consult the community about it? What justifies 15 days of no parking on the streets? Were there studies made that could justify this kind of ruling? Will it alleviate the decongestion of the streets? Who benefits from this ruling?

I think this should be questioned by the residents of the community. It's a waste of time and money. We need people who can deliberately think fairly for the good of the community.
