Duarte RV parking at a glance
| Location or use | What to check |
|---|---|
| An issued overnight permit | The city instructions revised February 2, 2026 reproduce §11.16.020A: street, alley and public-right-of-way RV parking between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. requires a valid RV or RV guest permit. Display it at the lower driver-side windshield or nearest window with all information visible. The resident RV must be registered to the home address; guest applications involve the resident host and applicant. The checker does not issue a permit or decide eligibility. |
| Three days and monthly caps | A permit allows up to three consecutive days and expires at 6 a.m. on the fourth day. Each address has a six-day monthly resident-permit allowance and a separate six-day guest allowance, with at most one of each permit type at the address. Parking must be along that address’s curb line; a corner address may use either street on its block. Street sweeping, the 72-hour unmoved-vehicle rule and other parking laws still apply. |
| Safety and no habitation | Even a permitted RV may not park within 50 feet of an intersection, be used for habitation or business, obstruct safe travel with slideouts, leak, violate noise rules, connect to a sewer or dump waste except at a licensed station. Cords, hoses and similar items may not cross above or on a parkway, street or sidewalk. The instructions also restrict external power sources; this limited checker covers none. Permit refusal can depend on safety, street width, unpaid citations and other conditions. |

Who to contact for your setup
Confirm parcel jurisdiction and unusual proposals with the local zoning or parking office. This is a limited administrative check, not a permit or complete legal approval.
Use the Duarte parking checker to organize the starting conditions. The checker cannot approve a parcel, a variance or an unverified exception.
