Episode Details

Franklin County High School’s parking crisis is heating up as the school year begins—with only 271 spots on campus and a once-reliable off-campus option now gone. Eagle Plaza, which previously allowed student parking, shut it down after students left trash and caused safety issues like speeding and donuts. The plaza owner, Timothy Cooke—a parent himself—says towing will be used for repeat offenders, though there’s no two-hour limit as some believe. Businesses nearby are caught in the crossfire, with some threatening to boycott and others defending their stance. Compounding the problem, Rocky Mount Plaza has also banned student parking, leaving students scrambling for space—and forcing everyone to rethink how they handle this growing headache.
