Abandoned Vehicles: Menifee vs Moreno Valley

Menifee prohibits storing abandoned, wrecked, dismantled, or inoperative vehicles on public or private property beyond 72 hours unless the vehicle is fully enclosed and not visible from the street. Violations are infractions enforceable by code enforcement.

Vehicles left on public streets for more than 72 hours without moving may be tagged and towed under California Vehicle Code section 22669. Inoperable, wrecked, or dismantled vehicles stored in public view on private property are a public nuisance and must be removed or enclosed within a permitted garage or opaque screening.
