Summary

In the City of Woodland, California, a horse trailer, camp trailer or boat trailer cannot sit on a residential street for more than 24 hours under Woodland Municipal Code § 10.08.140(B). Residential neighborhoods covered are streets zoned R-1, R-2, N-P, T or R-M, and the Police Department enforces the limit.

B. No person shall park any horse trailer, camp trailer, or boat trailer on any street in any residential neighborhood for a period exceeding 24 hours. C. For the purposes of this section, residential neighborhoods are streets zoned residential (R-1, R-2, N-P, T, or R-M).

Full Breakdown

Section 10.08.140(B) sets a flat clock on trailer parking on residential streets: 'No person shall park any horse trailer, camp trailer, or boat trailer on any street in any residential neighborhood for a period exceeding 24 hours.' Subsection C defines which streets that covers, listing residential zones R-1, R-2, N-P, T and R-M by name; a trailer parked longer than 24 hours on a street carrying one of those zoning designations violates the section regardless of whether it blocks traffic. The same section's subsection A separately caps commercial-use vehicles over 10,000 pounds unladen on residential streets, exempting Vehicle Code-exempt vehicles and City on-call tow trucks designated under § 10.04.030, so a heavy horse or boat trailer that also qualifies as a commercial vehicle can be reached under either clause.

The rule traces to Prior Code § 14-6-13 and sits in Chapter 10.08, Stopping, Standing, and Parking, enforced citywide by the Woodland Police Department; it addresses on-street trailer parking rather than storage in a private driveway or yard, which falls instead under the City's zoning and accessory-structure standards in Title 17.

Violations & Fines

Leaving a horse trailer, camp trailer or boat trailer parked on a residential street (zoned R-1, R-2, N-P, T or R-M) for more than 24 hours violates Woodland Municipal Code § 10.08.140(B) and (C), enforced by the Woodland Police Department as a parking citation regardless of whether the trailer obstructs traffic.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long can I park a boat trailer on my street in Woodland?
Up to 24 hours. Woodland Municipal Code § 10.08.140(B) says 'no person shall park any horse trailer, camp trailer, or boat trailer on any street in any residential neighborhood for a period exceeding 24 hours,' and subsection C applies that limit to streets zoned R-1, R-2, N-P, T or R-M.
Does the 24-hour trailer rule apply to my whole street or just some zones?
Only streets in the residential zones the section names: R-1, R-2, N-P, T and R-M, under § 10.08.140(C). A trailer parked more than 24 hours on a street carrying one of those zoning designations is in violation regardless of the neighborhood's common name.
Can I park a large trailer on the street if it's also a commercial vehicle?
It can be cited under either clause of § 10.08.140. Subsection A separately bars parking a commercial-use vehicle over 10,000 pounds unladen on a residential street, so a heavy trailer used commercially faces both the weight limit and the 24-hour trailer clock.
