Summary
Isleton follows California Vehicle Code Section 22651(k) 72-hour consecutive parking limit. No parking meters exist anywhere in the tiny Delta city. Most streets allow free parking with few restrictions outside of marked fire lanes and the levee-top roadway along the Sacramento River.
(k) If a vehicle is parked or left standing upon a highway for 72 or more consecutive hours in violation of a local ordinance authorizing removal.
(l) If a vehicle is illegally parked on a highway in violation of a local ordinance forbidding standing or parking and the use of a highway, or a portion thereof, is necessary for the cleaning, repair, or construction of the highway, or for the installation of underground utilities, and signs giving notice that the vehicle may be removed are erected or placed at least 24 hours prior to the removal by a local authority pursuant to the ordinance.
(m) If the use of the highway, or a portion of the highway, is authorized by a local authority for a purpose other than the normal flow of traffic or for the movement of equipment, articles, or structures of unusual size, and the parking of a vehicle would prohibit or interfere with that use or movement, and signs giving notice that the vehicle may be removed are erected or placed at least 24 hours prior to the removal by a local authority pursuant to the ordinance.
(n) Whenever a vehicle is parked or left standing where local authorities, by resolution or ordinance, have prohibited parking and have authorized the removal of vehicles. Except as provided in subdivisions (v) and (w), a vehicle shall not be removed unless signs are posted giving notice of the removal.
Full Breakdown
As a city of under 800 people, Isleton has never installed parking meters and maintains abundant free parking throughout the historic downtown on Main Street and Second Street. CVC 22651(k) allows any vehicle parked in one spot for more than 72 consecutive hours to be cited and towed. The annual Crawdad Festival in June brings heavy visitor traffic and the city implements temporary event parking plans with shuttle service from off-site lots. Parking on top of levee roads is prohibited under the Delta Reform Act and California Public Resources Code Sections 8710 and following because of levee integrity concerns. Street sweeping occurs monthly and posted no-parking signs are enforced during sweep hours.
Violations & Fines
72-hour violation: towing plus approximately 75 dollar citation. Fire lane violation: 100 dollars. Levee road parking: 250 dollars and immediate tow.
