Summary
In the City of Huntington Park, California, no vehicle can be parked overnight on any highway, street, alley, public way or public place without a valid overnight parking permit. Municipal Code § 4-6.18 covers the whole City, leaves permit procedures and fees to City Council resolution, and caps fees at the cost of processing and issuing the permit.
(a) The operator of any vehicle shall not park such vehicle on any highway, street, alley, public way, or public place overnight without a valid overnight parking permit. (b) The hourly parking prohibitions enforced under this section shall not apply to any vehicle that properly displays a valid city-issued overnight parking permit. (c) The City Council may by resolution establish procedures for the consideration and issuance of overnight parking permits for residents and business owners within the City. (d) The City Council may by resolution establish the fees for overnight parking permits, which fees shall not exceed the cost of processing, providing and issuing such permits.
Full Breakdown
Section 4-6.18 of the Huntington Park Municipal Code is a citywide permit requirement, not a posted-street program. Subsection (a) says the operator of any vehicle shall not park on any highway, street, alley, public way, or public place overnight without a valid overnight parking permit. The ordinance is directed at the operator, and the reach is broad: alleys and public places are named alongside streets.
Subsection (b) provides that the hourly parking prohibitions enforced under the section do not apply to a vehicle that properly displays a valid city-issued overnight parking permit. The code text does not print the clock hours that count as overnight, so the hours come from the posted signs and City resolutions rather than from § 4-6.18 itself.
Subsections (c) and (d) hand the details to the City Council. The Council establishes by resolution the procedures for considering and issuing overnight parking permits for residents and business owners within the City, so both groups are eligible categories. The Council also sets the permit fees by resolution, and those fees cannot exceed the cost of processing, providing and issuing the permits. The section carries the history note Ord. 2023-03, 4/18/2024.
If the City denies a permit, Chapter 4 of Title 1 gives the applicant an appeal to the City Council. The written notice goes to the City Clerk within 14 days after receipt of written notice of the action, and in no event later than 30 days after the date of the action. The Council's findings on the appeal are final and conclusive.
Violations & Fines
Section 4-6.17 leaves parking penalties to a City Council resolution adopted under California Vehicle Code Section 40203.5. Late-payment penalties are printed in the code: $30 when paid after the initial 21 day period but less than 60 days after the citation, $60 for payment between 60 and 89 days, and $90 for payment 90 days or more after the citation. Failure to pay or to request a review in time results in notification of the Department of Motor Vehicles.
