Full Breakdown

Subsection (B) of § 15-608 names the vehicles it reaches: motor homes, campers, fifth wheel, attached or unattached trailers in excess of 30 feet, and other recreational vehicles. None of them can be parked on any public street between 12:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. at night. During the remaining hours, from 6:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m., recreational vehicle parking is restricted to two hours daily. The subsection closes by stating that there is no overnight parking of any of the listed vehicles on public streets within residentially owned districts unless the Chief of Police or his or her designate specifically authorizes it under subsection (D).

Subsection (C) excludes emergency and public utility service vehicles from the section entirely.

The permit path is in subsection (D). Each residential lot within the city can request a permit from the Chief of Police for overnight parking on public streets for the vehicles referenced in subsections (A) and (B). A valid permit issued by the Chief of Police or his or her designate allows continuous on-street parking for a period of 72 hours from the effective time and date of the permit. The code sets no fee in this section and names the Chief of Police as the permit authority.

The text of § 15-608 is written for vehicles on public streets. Related street rules still apply to a parked trailer or camper. Section 15-602(B) bars angle parking of any vehicle with a trailer attached or a length in excess of 24 feet, and § 15-604 prohibits parking in front of a driveway, on a sidewalk, within 15 feet of a fire hydrant, or within an intersection or 15 feet of one. Under § 15-704, a vehicle left on a street or alley for more than 72 consecutive hours without the Chief of Police's permission is presumed abandoned if the owner cannot be located after a reasonable investigation.

Violations & Fines

Parking violations are civil offenses under § 15-705(B): an offender who waives a judicial hearing pays $25 for the first offense and $50 for second and subsequent offenses. Under § 15-703 an officer affixes a citation to the unattended vehicle requiring an answer within ten days, and § 15-607 presumes the registered owner responsible. The Police Department can impound the vehicle under § 15-704 at $5 plus $1 per day of storage.
