Street duration and overnight permits
Section 15.07.05 prohibits street or alley parking longer than 48 consecutive hours. Removal after more than 72 hours is a separate enforcement threshold, not permission to park for 72 hours. Section 15.07.23 prohibits street parking from 2 a.m. to 5 a.m., excluding Huntington Drive and San Gabriel Boulevard. Issued overnight permits are exceptions only to the nighttime rule.
Permit conditions
The police chief issues up to five free one-night permits per residential property per calendar year upon request; additional permits may be purchased. Long-term permits are discretionary for qualifying practical difficulties or healthcare parking needs. Permit holders ordinarily park immediately in front of the related residence unless the chief approves another placement. A permit does not waive vehicle habitation, public-lot or other restrictions.
Public lots and habitation
Section 15.07.27 prohibits motorhomes, boats, trailers and components in public parking lots. It also prohibits vehicles over 6,000 pounds maximum gross weight or towing a trailer, parking outside marked spaces, obstructions and parking from 2 a.m. to 5 a.m. Section 14.05.06 prohibits use as a dwelling on public streets, lots and ways, including sleeping, eating or resting as habitation. Temporary inability to drive because of sickness or physical inability is excluded from that definition and requires separate review.
Who to contact for your setup
Confirm the address and proposal with the local planning or police office before relying on this limited rule check. Other laws and private restrictions remain applicable.
