El Cajon provides a free web-based RV Parking Permit System for residents wishing to park RVs on city streets. Residents can have three active one-day permits at a time and are allowed up to 52 permits per year. RVs parked on city streets without permits are subject to parking enforcement. The 72-hour consecutive street parking limit also applies. Living in an RV on private residential property is effectively prohibited as it is not addressed in the municipal code. The city has considered adding clearer language to reinforce this prohibition. Boat trailers are subject to the same street parking regulations as other vehicles.
RVs without permits on city streets subject to citation. RV habitation on private property is not permitted. 72-hour violations result in towing.
