Yucaipa, CA Parking Rules: Street Parking Limits (2026)

Chapter 10.12 of the Yucaipa Municipal Code, Highways and Traffic, holds the city's on-street parking rules, adopted by Ord. 212 in 2001 and amended by Ord. 317 in 2012 for the curb rule.

Subsection D of § 10.12.040 sets the standing rule. No one can stand or park in a roadway other than parallel with the edge of the roadway, headed in the direction of traffic, with the right-hand wheels within eighteen (18) inches of the curb line or edge. On one-way streets, a vehicle can park facing traffic movement on the left-hand side, with the left-hand wheels within eighteen inches of the curb. All parking is parallel except on streets marked or signed by the city engineer for angle parking, where vehicles park at the angle shown. Disobeying an official sign on the manner of parking is itself prohibited.

Driveways and hydrants are handled in § 10.12.030. The city engineer can prohibit stopping, standing or parking, and post signs or curb markings, adjacent to either side of a crosswalk or driveway entrance for a distance not to exceed twenty (20) feet, adjacent to a fire hydrant where access is at stake, and within one hundred (100) feet of an intersection of two or more highways. Under § 10.12.035, no one can stop, stand or park in an alley so as to block the driveway entrance to an abutting property, or leave less than ten feet of roadway width open.

Other street rules: no stopping in a median strip or traffic island (§ 10.12.020); no parking for the principal purpose of washing, greasing or repairing a vehicle, except emergency repairs, using the vehicle to support a sign, or vending (§ 10.12.060). The city engineer can post temporary no-parking signs during assemblages or construction under § 10.12.040(C). The rules apply at all times unless the section names specific hours (§ 10.12.010).
