Yolo County has no county-wide ordinance prohibiting overnight on-street parking in unincorporated areas. The CVC section 22651(k) 72-hour limit, the Title 5 abandoned-vehicle ordinance, and the section 8-2.1314 ban on using RVs as dwellings are the operative restrictions.
A review of the Yolo County Code identifies no county-wide overnight on-street parking prohibition for unincorporated territory. The principal restrictions affecting overnight parking are: (1) California Vehicle Code section 22651(k), which authorizes removal of vehicles parked on a highway for 72 or more consecutive hours; (2) Yolo County Code Title 5, Chapter 1 (Abandoned, Wrecked, Dismantled, or Inoperative Vehicles), which provides administrative abatement authority through the hearing process in sections 5-1.05 through 5-1.10; (3) Yolo County Code section 8-2.1314, which prohibits using a parked recreational vehicle 'as a residential dwelling, either temporarily or permanently,' on residential property unless approved by the Planning Director or Planning Commission; and (4) localized 'no parking' restrictions on individual streets that may be established by Board of Supervisors resolution under Cal. Veh. Code section 22507. Cities within Yolo County (Davis, Woodland, West Sacramento, Winters) impose their own overnight rules that do not apply in unincorporated areas.
Vehicles parked over 72 hours may be cited and towed at the owner's expense under CVC section 22651(k). Sleeping in a stored RV on residential property without Planning approval is a zoning violation enforced by Code Enforcement under section 8-2.1314. Posted street-specific restrictions are enforced by the Yolo County Sheriff.
