Menifee prohibits parking RVs, boats, trailers, and other recreational vehicles on city streets in residential districts, with a narrow exception: up to 48 hours at a time, twice a month, directly in front of the owner's (or a host's) residence for loading, unloading, or cleaning.
Menifee Municipal Code Section 12.20.150 (Ord. No. 2009-51) bans recreational vehicle parking on any city highway within a residential district. The definition in Section 12.20.020(e) is broad, covering any vehicle 'with or without motor power, designed for human habitation or recreation,' including boats, snowmobiles, watercraft, racing vehicles, off-road vehicles, utility trailers, motor homes, travel trailers, truck campers, and camping trailers. The exception allows street parking for no more than 48 hours, twice per month, only directly in front of the RV owner's residence for loading, unloading, or cleaning, or in front of a residence the RV owner is visiting with the homeowner's permission. The city's official parking handout adds that campers and RVs must otherwise be stored off-street in an area of the property designed for vehicle storage, such as a driveway or yard area, and the Code Enforcement FAQ states that unattached trailers may not be parked on the street or driveway at any time. Section 12.20.170 requires the City Engineer to post signs in compliance with California Vehicle Code Section 22507 giving notice of these restrictions.
Violations are infractions punishable by a fine established by the California Vehicle Code, with each day constituting a separate offense (MMC 12.20.190). Vehicles may be cited where appropriate signage has been posted (MMC 12.20.180) and removed under California Vehicle Code Sections 22650 and 22850 (MMC 12.20.040).
