RV parking on streets in Garden Grove now requires a city-issued permit. A schedule of fines for violating the ordinance goes before the city council on Tuesday night.
A schedule of fines for violation of the city’s new recreational vehicle parking regulations will be on the agenda for Tuesday’s meeting of the Garden Grove City Council.
An ordinance approved in August restricted the parking of RVs on streets and alleys without a city-issued permit, but no financial penalties for violating the new rules were included.
- $108 for the first violation
- $208 for the second violation
- $508 for the third and subsequent violations within one year of the first violation.
Under the new ordinance, residents may request up to 12 non-consecutive, 72-hour recreational vehicle parking permits for the sole purpose of loading or unloading before and after travel. Residents will be able to request both loading and unloading permits at the same time.
Residents requiring longer accommodations may request weekly parking permits not to exceed seven days per permit. No more than six weekly permits will be allowed per residential address per year with at least one day in between each of the six permits.
A valid permit will only allow recreational vehicles to park in front of the address of the resident applying for the permit. The ordinance does not affect private property.
The council meets in its chambers in the Community Meeting Center, 11300 Stanford Ave. at 6:30 p.m.
