I'd suggest you start by going to the business owner and making it clear that "perhaps some employees who don't understand that the easement agreement ONLY allows pickup/dropoff" and that he needs to talk to them and explain that parking there will not be tolerated.

Odds are he has no idea this is a problem. And if you approach it that way, you are not accusing HIM/HER of any wrongdoing. If that doesn't work, have your attorney write tham a letter. If that doesn't work, yout attorney will need to review the easement and situation and discuss with you what to do next.

**A: review the language in the recorded easement agreement. Most likley the easement is for purposes of ingress/egress only and not parking. If so, talk to them, put up private property, tow away and parking signs. Then start towing away.
