Executive Summary: The purpose of this report is to adopt an ordinance updating Fremont’s parking regulations to incorporate new state legislation and existing California Vehicle Code regulations. The parking regulation updates will allow for enforcement of parking violations that create traffic safety concerns or issues in the community, relating to visibility at street intersections and the height of parked vehicles.
California Vehicle Code (CVC) Section 22507 allows local authorities to prohibit or restrict the stopping, parking, or standing of vehicles, including but not limited to, vehicles that are six feet or more in height within 100 feet of an intersection, on certain streets or portions thereof, during all or certain hours of the day. In order for the City of Fremont to use the legislative authority enabled by AB 413 (intersection daylighting) and CVC 22507 (vehicle height restrictions), the City must adopt an ordinance to incorporate these regulations into the Fremont Municipal Code.
The ordinance was introduced by the City Council at its April 2, 2024 meeting. The ordinance is now before the Council for adoption.
ATTACHMENTS:
• Draft Ordinance Update to Parking Regulations
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt an ordinance amending Section 10.05.630 of the Fremont Municipal Code to update parking regulations.
