Simi Valley, CA Parking Rules: Driveway Rules (2026)

202(a) makes it unlawful for a vehicle's registered owner, legal owner, driver, renter or lessee to park, or let the vehicle be parked, on an unpaved surface within a yard or required setback of a residential, commercial or vacant lot that is visible from a public alley, street or adjoining property. 202(b) separately bars parking an inoperative vehicle in a required yard or setback under the same visibility test, though it exempts a business lawfully engaged in vehicle repair or servicing. 202(d) extends the ban to storing a vessel, camper or camper shell on an unpaved surface, or storing vehicle parts or components, in a required yard or setback visible from the street, alley or an adjoining property.

201(b) covers a vehicle on blocks or jacks, one accumulating weeds, trash or debris, or one otherwise too disused or disrepaired to drive; a lapsed registration is evidence of that, though registration status alone doesn't decide it. 202(c). 01 et seq. 205 exempts construction under an active grading or building permit, City-sponsored activity, and licensed vehicle repair or sales sites.
