Under Municipal Code Chapter 10.28 the City Traffic Engineer maintains all no-stopping, no-parking and restricted-parking zones by signs or curb paint; only official curb markings carry legal force in Yorba Linda.
Chapter 10.28 (Stopping, Standing and Parking) authorizes the City Traffic Engineer to maintain, by appropriate signs or by paint upon the curb surface, all no-stopping zones, no-parking areas and restricted-parking areas. When such markings or signs are in place, no operator may stop, stand or park in violation of the chapter. Curb colors carry defined meanings: red means no stopping any time (except as permitted by the Vehicle Code); yellow marks a loading zone; and green allows only short-term parking. Because marking authority is vested in the City Traffic Engineer, curbs painted by residents or third parties are not official and create no enforceable restriction. Requests for new curb markings should go through the City's Public Works/Engineering division.
Only officially placed markings are enforceable; parking contrary to a valid red, yellow or green curb is a citable violation, while unauthorized private curb painting confers no enforceable restriction and can itself be a right-of-way/encroachment issue.
