Colusa County, CA Parking Rules: Street Parking Limits (2026)

Under Colusa County Code Section 12A-5, every vehicle parked on a street with curbs must be parked with the right-hand wheels parallel to and within 18 inches of the right-hand curb (motorcycles must have at least one wheel touching the curb); where no curb exists, right-hand parallel parking within 18 inches of the pavement edge is required. On a one-way street the left side may also be used (Section 12A-5(b)). Section 12A-4 prohibits angle parking countywide except where approved by the sheriff and lines have been placed to mark the spaces.

Section 12A-6 prohibits double parking (parking on the roadway side of an already-parked vehicle), except a school bus loading pupils. Section 12A-22 authorizes the road commissioner to install parking-space markings and prohibits parking across or outside marked space lines so as to make adjacent spaces unusable. Section 12A-11 lists specific locations where parking is prohibited (including portions of Fifth Street and Putnam Way in Arbuckle and county-owned parking lots when signed), and lets the board add locations by resolution to eliminate traffic hazards.
