EMC Article 30 (Off-Street Parking) governs residential parking requirements. All vehicle parking must be on prepared surfaces including concrete, asphalt, or paver blocks. Parking on landscaped areas is prohibited. No more than 50% of the required front setback area, including the driveway, may be used for vehicle parking. Driveway width and design must conform to city engineering standards. The City Traffic Engineer enforces time-limited and signed parking on public streets. Inoperable vehicles on private property are enforced by Code Compliance (760-839-4650). The city's zoning code establishes minimum parking requirements based on dwelling type and number of bedrooms.
Parking on unpaved surfaces: Code Compliance citation. Exceeding front setback parking limit: enforcement notice.
