LA County Code Title 16.04 lets unincorporated neighborhoods petition for Preferential Parking Districts that reserve curb space for residents holding annual permits. Non-permit vehicles face citations during posted hours, typically two-hour limits except by permit.
Title 16.04 of the LA County Code authorizes the Board of Supervisors to establish Preferential Parking Districts after a neighborhood petition signed by at least 67 percent of affected households. Once adopted, the curb is posted with signs limiting non-permit parking to two hours during specified periods, often 8am to 6pm weekdays. Residents apply to LA County Public Works for permits, currently around 35 dollars annually plus 25 dollars per guest pass. Each household may obtain up to three resident permits and a limited number of guest passes. The Sheriff's Department and contract enforcement officers issue citations. Incorporated cities operate separate residential permit programs.
Parking longer than the posted limit without a valid PPD permit during enforced hours is a parking violation under Title 16.04, fined approximately 68 dollars, with possible tow after repeated offenses.
