Summary
Upland marks commercial loading zones with yellow curb paint under Municipal Code § 10.48.030, restricting them to loading and unloading between 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. on days other than Sundays and holidays. Materials may be unloaded for up to 20 minutes and passengers for up to 3 minutes.
Yellow means no stopping, standing or parking at any time between 7:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. of any day except Sundays (and holidays) for any purpose other than the loading or unloading of passengers or materials; provided, that the loading or unloading of passengers shall not consume more than three minutes nor the loading or unloading of materials more than 20 minutes. ... In no event shall more than one-half of the total curb length in any block be reserved for loading zone purposes.

Violations & Fines
A vehicle stopped, standing, or parked adjacent to a yellow-marked loading curb outside the permitted purpose or time limit violates § 10.48.030(C), which bars parking "adjacent to any such legible curb marking in violation of any of the provisions of this section." Loading beyond the 20-minute materials limit or 3-minute passenger limit exceeds the privilege granted in § 10.48.050. Absent a chapter-specific fine, enforcement defaults to the citywide infraction or misdemeanor penalties in Chapter 1.16.
