Clovis, CA Parking Rules: Driveway Rules (2026)

101 lists conditions that count as public nuisances subject to abatement when they substantially detract from neighborhood appearance, reduce nearby property values, or are otherwise a visual blight or danger to public health and safety. Subsection (z) specifically names any vehicle, recreational vehicle, motor home, camper, camper shell, boat, or trailer parked or stored outside of a garage or carport on an unpaved surface, or otherwise in violation of the Municipal Code, as one of those nuisance conditions. This sits alongside subsection (g), which separately flags deteriorated driveways and similar improvements, and subsection (q), which bans any vehicle occupied overnight except in an approved location, giving the City several related tools to address vehicles stored or lived in outside a proper paved surface.

28's abatement procedure rather than a citation from a parking enforcement officer patrolling the street: the Director of Planning and Development Services or another enforcement official issues written notice identifying the violated code section and a correction deadline, and unresolved violations can be abated by the City with costs billed to the owner.
