Simi Valley enforces a 72-hour street parking limit for all vehicles on public streets. Additional restrictions apply to specific streets, school zones, and areas with posted signage limiting parking duration or hours.
Under the Simi Valley Municipal Code, no vehicle may be parked on any public street for more than 72 consecutive hours. Street sweeping schedules require vehicles to be moved on designated days; posted signs indicate restricted hours. Red curb zones, fire lanes, and areas within 15 feet of fire hydrants are no-parking zones at all times. Yellow curb zones allow loading only for 20 minutes. School zone parking restrictions apply during school hours. The city may establish preferential parking districts in neighborhoods experiencing overflow parking from commercial areas. Overnight parking is generally permitted unless posted otherwise.
Vehicles exceeding the 72-hour limit receive a warning notice followed by citation and potential towing after 24 hours. Street sweeping violations carry fines. Parking in fire lanes or blocking hydrants results in immediate citation and potential towing. Fine amounts are set by the city's parking penalty schedule.
