Authorized public parking only
Section 10.12.040 prohibits public-property storage except authorized use. An operable, licensed and insured motor vehicle may use an approved on-street public parking space subject to posted limitations or a city permit. Without a posted limit or different permit terms, an RV, motorhome or trailer is limited to 24 hours, attached or not. This guide excludes motor trucks and all permits for separate review.
