Moorpark does not impose a separate commercial parking tax. Paid-parking facilities pay standard sales and business taxes but no targeted parking-tax surcharge as in larger California cities.
Unlike Los Angeles (10% parking-occupancy tax), San Francisco (25%), and Oakland, Moorpark has not adopted a commercial parking tax. The city's suburban character means most parking is free at strip centers, Moorpark Community Park, the Metrolink station park-and-ride, and Moorpark College student lots. Commercial parking operators still pay standard Moorpark business-license tax under MMC Title 5 and collect sales tax on certain taxable items. Any future parking tax would require voter approval under Proposition 218 because it constitutes a special or general tax.
There is no parking tax to violate. Operators who fail to remit business-license tax or sales tax on related concessions face standard collection and audit penalties.
