Burbank Municipal Code Section 6-1-1008.1 makes it unlawful for any commercial vehicle exceeding 6,500 pounds unladen weight to park in any residential zone for any period of time. In commercial zones, trucks over 6,500 lbs may not park more than two hours, and no commercial vehicle may park there between 3:00 and 5:00 AM.
Burbank tightly restricts commercial vehicle parking. Under BMC Section 6-1-1008.1 ("Commercial Vehicle Parking in Residential Zones Prohibited"), it is unlawful for any commercial vehicle exceeding 6,500 pounds in unladen weight to park in any residential zone within the City for any period of time; no more than three citations may be issued per 24-hour period. A narrow exception allows parking only for the time reasonably necessary to load/unload passengers or merchandise, or to complete service or construction work in the immediate vicinity. In commercial zones, BMC Section 6-1-1008 makes it unlawful for any commercial vehicle or bus over 6,500 lbs unladen to park in the public right-of-way for more than two hours, and bars any commercial vehicle from parking there between 3:00 AM and 5:00 AM. The terms "commercial vehicle" and "unladen weight" are defined as in the California Vehicle Code, and "residential zone"/"commercial zone" follow Title 10 of the Burbank Municipal Code. Each violation is an infraction.
A violation of BMC 6-1-1008 or 6-1-1008.1 is an infraction. Trucks over 6,500 lbs unladen parked in a residential zone, parked over two hours in a commercial zone, or parked in a commercial zone between 3-5 AM are cited (no more than three citations per vehicle in any 24-hour period for the weight-based subsections). Penalties follow the Burbank parking-bail schedule, enforced under California Vehicle Code Section 40200.
