Lodi has no blanket citywide overnight on-street parking ban — vehicles may park on a public street if currently registered, operable, and moved every 72 hours. Overnight parking is prohibited at city EV charging stations, and posted zones (school, downtown, permit areas) have their own rules.
Per the City of Lodi Traffic Services page, 'anyone may park on the public street in front of a home or business as long as the vehicle is legally parked, currently registered, is in running condition and moves every 72 hours.' The 72-hour window is enforced under California Vehicle Code §22651(k). Posted signage in downtown lots, the parking garage, and specific blocks may impose shorter limits. The downtown parking structure at 4 N. Sacramento Street allows free overnight parking only if the user is using transit, and stays exceeding 72 hours (up to two consecutive weeks) require approval from Lodi Transit Administration (209-333-6706). Overnight parking at all public EV charging stations is prohibited.
Vehicles left on a public street more than 72 hours without moving may be cited and towed under CVC §22651(k); $160 city release fee plus tow/storage charges. Posted-zone overpark violations are cited per posted signage.
