When signs are erected in each block giving notice, no person shall park a vehicle between the hours specified in schedule V on file with the city clerk, on any day except Sundays and public holidays within the district or upon any of the streets described in schedule V on file with the city clerk.
Full Breakdown
Concord does not impose a single citywide overnight parking cutoff written into the text of the Code. Instead, Section 58-303 authorizes the city to prohibit parking at all times on any street listed in Schedule IV, a list the city clerk keeps on file rather than printing in the Code itself, and that prohibition takes effect only once signs are erected giving notice. Section 58-304 works the same way for time-of-day restrictions: once signs are posted in each affected block, parking is barred during the hours specified in Schedule V, on any day except Sundays and public holidays, on the streets that schedule names.
on streets listed in Schedule VI, again only where signs are posted. Section 58-301 makes clear these restrictions run at all times or at the specified times unless a driver is stopping to avoid a traffic conflict or following a police officer's or traffic-control device's direction, and Section 58-302 confirms a time-limit rule never excuses a driver from a stricter prohibition that also applies to the same spot. 00 delinquent-payment penalties.
Violations & Fines
Parking on a street listed in Schedule IV, or during hours restricted under Schedule V or VI, once the city has posted signs there, violates Sections 58-303 through 58-305. Section 58-306 applies the same civil penalty structure as Section 58-252's general parking violations, with an added $10.00 penalty at 15 days delinquent and $15.00 at 30 days, collected as a civil debt.
