Violations & Fines
Parking a commercial vehicle in a residential zone without the permit violates Chapter 10.32, and § 10.64.010 makes Title 10 violations infractions unless the offense is a parking violation, in which case the California Vehicle Code treats it as a civil offense with penalties set by City Council resolution. Truck route violations under § 10.32.010 follow the same enforcement track.
