In Daly City, only the driveway area (not to exceed garage width by more than 6 inches each side) may be used for vehicle parking in front yards. Paved front yard areas complying with Β§17.34.050 may allow additional vehicle parking.
DCMC Section 10.32.165 limits front yard parking to the driveway apron. Vehicles (excluding boats, trailers, and camper shells) may also be parked in paved front yard areas that were installed in compliance with DCMC Section 17.34.050. Blocking the sidewalk with a parked vehicle is prohibited. Garage conversions that eliminate off-street parking may require replacement parking spaces under zoning rules.
Sidewalk blocking: parking citation $50 to $200. Unpaved parking: code compliance notice. Unpermitted driveway work: stop-work order.
