Fullerton Municipal Code restricts overnight parking on city streets between 2 AM and 6 AM without a valid permit. Residents may obtain overnight parking permits through the Police Department for temporary needs.
Under FMC Section 11.44, parking on city streets is prohibited between 2 AM and 6 AM. This overnight parking ban is enforced citywide to facilitate street sweeping, reduce vehicle-related crime, and maintain neighborhood aesthetics. Residents who need temporary overnight street parking can request permits through the Fullerton Police Department. Permits are typically granted for a limited number of nights. Visitors and guests should park in driveways or designated areas. Vehicles parked in violation are subject to citation. Some neighborhoods may have additional parking restrictions through permit parking districts. The city also enforces the 72-hour parking limit under California Vehicle Code Section 22651(k) for vehicles left in the same spot on public streets.
Vehicles parked overnight without a permit may receive parking citations. Fines are typically $50–$75 per violation. Repeated violations may result in vehicle towing at the owner's expense.
