LA County Code Title 15, Chapter 15.64 governs street parking in unincorporated areas. Vehicles parked on public highways for 72+ consecutive hours may be removed by the Sheriff. Nonconforming vehicles over 20 feet long face restrictions in designated communities.
LA County Code Section 15.64.200 authorizes the Sheriff to remove any vehicle parked on a highway for 72 or more consecutive hours. Section 15.64.052 restricts commercial vehicles over 10,000 pounds GVWR from parking on highways in residential districts at any time. The 2026 nonconforming vehicle ordinance amendment expands restrictions on oversized vehicles (over 8 feet wide, 7.5 feet tall, or 20 feet long) to additional unincorporated communities. Parking restrictions vary by community — posted signs indicate time limits and permit zones. The LA County Sheriff's Parking Enforcement Detail handles enforcement. Street sweeping schedules require vehicles to move on designated days. Overnight parking may be restricted on specific streets by posted signs.
Parking violations carry civil penalties under Section 15.200.010. Standard parking citations range from $25 to $73. Abandoned vehicles (72+ hours) may be towed at owner's expense plus storage fees. Oversized vehicle violations carry fines of $50–$250.
