Full Breakdown
Roseville City Code § 602.04 governs how a vehicle is left on a city street. Subsection (a) applies to any vehicle parked at any time in any part of the city. The right-hand side of the vehicle must be parallel to the curb or edge of the street and not more than one foot from it, and the code requires at least four feet between parked vehicles. The only stated exception is where marks or signs on the streets indicate that cars shall be parked at an angle.
Subsection (b) prohibits standing two or more abreast in any street. Commercial vehicles are the one exception: when calling for or delivering parcels or merchandise, a commercial vehicle can double park for the length of time absolutely and reasonably necessary to load or unload, and only when access to the curb is blocked by other vehicles at the place of delivery.
Subsection (c) sets a time limit for heavy trucks. No truck with a capacity of over two tons can stay on any street for more than 90 minutes, or for the time necessary to load or unload the truck. Subsection (d) covers private property: no vehicle can be parked or left standing on the private property of any person without the consent of the property owner.
Other sections of Chapter 602 add rules on top of § 602.04. Section 602.05 lets the fire chief designate fire lanes, and a vehicle other than an authorized emergency vehicle parked in one can be removed, impounded and kept in custody under the direction of the chief of police. Section 602.06 lets the public works director or the police chief temporarily prohibit parking or traffic on a public street during maintenance, improvements or a public safety emergency, and once signs are posted no person can park or drive there. Section 602.07 restricts street parking for 48 hours after a snowfall of two inches or more. Section 602.08 sets rules for private and public parking lots, including a ban on parking at a curb painted yellow and in front of any entrance to a business open to public patronage.
Violations & Fines
Chapter 602 (§§ 602.01 to 602.08) prints no penalty clause of its own, so the general penalty in § 102.01(a) covers any person violating a provision of the Code unless otherwise provided: a misdemeanor, with a fine not to exceed $1,000.00, or imprisonment not to exceed 90 days, or both, and costs of prosecution can be added. For a vehicular violation, § 102.01(c)(3) has the officer attach a notice to the vehicle. A vehicle in a fire lane can be removed and impounded under § 602.05(b).
