Baldwin Park, CA Parking Rules: Abandoned Vehicles (2026)

02 declares any vehicle, or part of one, that is abandoned, wrecked, dismantled or inoperative and located on private or public property, other than highways, to be a public nuisance subject to abatement and removal. 01 defines VEHICLE by reference to California Vehicle Code Section 670. 04 requires a ten-day notice of intent to remove that identifies the vehicle by identification and license number and follows the procedure in Cal. Veh. Code Section 22661. 05 gives the property owner or vehicle owner ten days after that notice to request a hearing with the City Clerk; without a request, the city proceeds straight to abatement as stated in the notice.

Code Section 22850, with a narrow carve-out for horseless-carriage or historical-vehicle plates that lets the vehicle be reconstructed. 13 exempts a vehicle fully enclosed in a building and out of public view, and one lawfully stored on a licensed dismantler's, dealer's or junkyard's property. 14.
