General provisions
97 rules that bind every district rather than one — sign regulations, parking, floodplain and the rest of the code’s citywide chapters.
No operator of any vehicle shall stop, stand, park or leave standing such vehicle in any of the following places... (1) Within any parkway, median or divisional island... (4) At any place within 20 feet of a point on the curb immediately opposite the midblock end of a safety zone... (5) At any place within 20 feet of a crosswalk at an intersection... (6) Within 20 feet of the approach to any traffic signal, boulevard stop sign or official electric flashing device.
No person who owns or has possession, custody or control of any motor vehicle, trailer, camper, recreational vehicle, mobile home or boat shall park such vehicle upon any street or alley for more than a consecutive period of 72 hours.
No person who owns or has possession, custody or control of any vehicle shall park such vehicle upon a city-owned parking lot for more than a consecutive period of 24 hours.
No person shall stop, stand or park a vehicle on any street for purposes of human habitation.
No person shall park any vehicle upon any street for the principal purpose of: (1) Advertising or displaying it for sale; (2) Greasing or repairing such vehicle except repairs necessitated by an emergency.
No person shall wash or cause to be washed, polished or caused to be polished any vehicle or part thereof upon any public street in this city, when a charge is made for such service.
The traffic and safety engineer is authorized to erect signs indicating no parking upon that side of any street adjacent to any school property when such parking would, in his opinion, interfere with traffic or create a hazardous situation.
The traffic and safety engineer is authorized to place signs or markings indicating no parking upon any street when the width of the roadway does not exceed 20 feet, or upon one side of the street as indicated by such signs or markings when the width of the roadway does not exceed 30 feet.
No person shall park or leave standing any vehicle unattended on a highway when upon any grade exceeding three percent (within any business or residential district) without blocking the wheels of the vehicle by turning them against the curb or by other means.
All mobile and stationary street vendors shall be in compliance at all times with Chapter 5.24 and section 5.04.175 of this Code. All peddlers and solicitors shall be in compliance at all times with Section 5.04.170 of this Code.
whenever the traffic and safety engineer determines that traffic congestion is likely to result from the holding of public or private assemblages, gatherings or functions, or for other reasons, he has the power and authority to order temporary signs to be erected or posted indicating that the operation, parking or standing of vehicles is prohibited on such streets and alleys as the traffic and safety engineer directs during such time temporary signs are in place.
Whenever the traffic and safety engineer determines that the orderly and efficient conduct of the city's business requires parking or standing of vehicles on city property to be prohibited, limited or restricted, the traffic and safety engineer has the power and authority to order signs to be erected or posted indicating the parking of vehicles is thus prohibited, limited or restricted.
No person shall park a vehicle in the front or side yard areas of any residentially used lot or parcel of land, except on a driveway with an impermeable surface.
A vehicle may be stopped or parked within 18 inches of the left-hand curb facing in the direction of traffic movement upon any one-way street unless signs are in place prohibiting such stopping or standing.
It is unlawful for the operator of any vehicle to park a vehicle in angle-parking zones except: (1) At the angle to the curb indicated by signs or pavement markings allotting space to parked vehicles and entirely within the limits of the allotted space; (2) With the front wheel nearest the curb within six inches of the curb.
When such parking space markings as are contemplated in subsection (a) of this section are placed on the highway, subject to other and more restrictive limitations, no vehicle shall be stopped, left standing or parked other than within a single space.
The traffic and safety engineer shall designate no-stopping zones by placing and maintaining appropriate signs indicating that stopping of vehicles is prohibited and indicating the hours and days when stopping is prohibited.
No person shall stop, stand or park a vehicle in any alley for any purpose other than the loading or unloading of passengers or material.
No person shall park or stop in an on-street parking space designated for the exclusive use of vehicles which display a distinguishing license plate or placard for disabled persons or disabled veteran issued pursuant to Section 22511.5 of the Vehicle Code, when such parking space is designated by blue paint on the curb or edge of the paved portion of the street adjacent to the space unless such person displays the distinguishing license plate or placard.
No person shall park or stand a vehicle in an off-street parking facility, whether public or private which contains parking stalls or spaces for the exclusive use of vehicles which display a distinguishing license plate or a placard issued pursuant to Section 22511.5 of the Vehicle Code, or of disabled veterans as specified in Section 9105 of the Vehicle Code, unless the vehicle either displays such a distinguishing license plate or a placard issued for disabled person or disabled veteran pursuant to Vehicle Code Section 22511.5.
