Glendale regulates overnight street parking through Chapter 24 (Motor Vehicles and Traffic). Vehicles may not be parked in the same location on a public street for more than 72 consecutive hours. Specific areas may have posted no-parking signs with stricter time limits. RVs, trailers, and commercial vehicles have additional overnight parking restrictions in residential zones.
Glendale's overnight parking regulations are part of the city's broader parking ordinance in Chapter 24. While there is no blanket ban on overnight street parking, vehicles cannot remain in the same spot for more than 72 consecutive hours on public streets. The Glendale Police Department enforces this through citizen complaints and patrol. Specific residential areas, particularly near State Farm Stadium and the Westgate Entertainment District, may have posted time-limited or permit parking during major events. RVs, travel trailers, and boats parked on the street are subject to the same 72-hour rule but may attract enforcement attention more quickly due to neighborhood complaints. Commercial vehicles, including large trucks and trailers, face additional restrictions in residential areas under Chapter 24, Article IV. Parking on residential streets must not block sidewalks, driveways, or fire hydrants. Many Glendale HOAs have stricter overnight parking rules, including prohibitions on street parking entirely.
Vehicles exceeding the 72-hour limit may be tagged and towed. Parking in violation of posted signs results in citations and potential towing.
