Full Breakdown

20, Parking, sets the baseline rules for on-street parking citywide. 020(a) bars parking or leaving standing any vehicle or trailer on a city highway for more than three days, and subsection (b) closes the obvious loophole: moving a vehicle within 500 feet of where it was tagged, to restart the clock, is itself a violation if done to circumvent the 72-hour limit. 040 gives the city authority to designate restricted parking or no-stopping zones after an engineering study and field review, and requires the city to post signs or paint curbs before that restriction becomes enforceable; once posted, no one may park where signs or curb paint gives notice of the restriction. 040(d). 080 defines what red, yellow, white and green curb markings mean for loading and passenger zones. 030.

Violations & Fines

A vehicle that overstays the 72-hour limit or is parked where signs or curb markings prohibit it is subject to towing and storage under Vehicle Code Sections 22651 and 22850, with the registered owner entitled to a post-storage hearing on the validity of the removal under Section 10.20.030(b). The code does not set a separate cash fine schedule for ordinary overtime parking in this chapter; enforcement runs through citation and vehicle removal rather than escalating criminal penalties.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many days can I leave my car parked on an Eastvale street?
Three days, or 72 hours. Section 10.20.020(a) prohibits parking or leaving any vehicle or trailer on a city highway beyond that limit, and moving it within 500 feet just to restart the clock is itself a separate violation under subsection (b).
Can Eastvale tow my car from a posted no-parking zone?
Yes. Section 10.20.040 lets the city establish restricted parking or no-stopping zones after an engineering study, and once signs are posted or curbs painted, parking there violates the section. Vehicles can be towed under Vehicle Code Sections 22651 and 22850, and the owner gets a post-storage hearing under Section 10.20.030.
Are there special curb-color parking rules in Eastvale?
Yes. Section 10.20.080 defines red curbs as no stopping or standing except buses and marked taxi zones, yellow as commercial loading only from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., white as brief passenger loading or mail pickup, and green as parking for the time posted on the curb or sign.
