Lehigh County has no overnight-parking rule; municipalities set them. Allentown prohibits storing any vehicle on a street, defining “stored” as parking in one place continuously for over 72 hours (§615-52).
There is no countywide overnight-parking ban in Lehigh County; the rule depends on your municipality. Allentown does not impose a blanket overnight ban but forbids leaving a vehicle in one spot too long: under Chapter 615 no vehicle may be “stored” on a street, meaning parked in one place continuously for more than 72 hours. A car left past that window can be ticketed, immobilized (booted) and towed as stored or abandoned. Permit-parking-district residents may park overnight on their block without meter or time-limit penalties. Boroughs and townships across the Lehigh Valley set their own overnight rules — some post winter or snow-emergency bans — so check local signage.
A vehicle stored over 72 hours may be ticketed, booted and towed; standard parking fines start at $15, rising to $100 (§615-58).
