DRAFT RECREATIONAL VEHICLE ORDINANCE
City Manager Miranda presented the staff report.
MAYOR BURROLA In response to a question by Mayor Burrola, City Manager Miranda advised that this matter was last addressed by the Council sometime between 2005 and 2007.
ROBERT MORAGO Robert Morago voiced concerns regarding allowing commercial vehicles to park along the streets, potentially limiting RV parking permits to two per year, prohibiting running an electrical extension cord from a house to an RV parked along the street, the timeline by which individuals would need to apply for permits, and suggested sending a survey to residents to gain their input.
LINDA STROBEHN Linda Strobehn asked whether residents would be allowed to purchase permits to park their RVs in front of their homes.
GARY STROBEHN Gary Strobehn objected to the proposal to allow only 24 hours to load or unload their trailers since he noted that seniors would require more time. He also stated that issuing up to two permits per year is insufficient, though he did speak in favor of issuing permits to residents.
DONIELLE STROBEHN Donielle Strobehn stated that it would be difficult to park RVs on narrow streets such as Baca, especially on trash days. She also suggested for the Council to consider issuing RV parking permits to residents.

COUNCILMEMBER Councilmember Garcia stated his belief that the RV parking problem GARCIA emanated from homeless individuals parking along City streets. He suggested issuing no -cost parking permits to residents and, if a parking issue persists, block leaders can present the problem to the Council for further consideration. He also agreed that commercial vehicles weighing over three tons should be prohibited from parking along City streets.
MAYOR BURROLA Mayor Burrola noted that concerned residents have contacted him since they feel RVs parked on the streets pose safety hazards since they obscure visibility for motorists. He advised that he has met with Captain Fraijo with the Irwindale Police Department who has advised that officers cannot issue citations since there are currently no laws prohibiting parking of RVs along City streets.
COUNCILMEMBER Councilmember Breceda agreed that many families have expressed BRECEDA concern since multiple RV' s can be seen parked along certain streets.
He noted that some of the parked RV' s do not belong to Irwindale residents and, as such, he spoke in favor of implementing a permitting process for three months, after which it could be analyzed to determine whether the measure alleviates residents' concerns and suggested continuing to work with residents to determine the best remedy for the issue.
MAYOR PRO TEM Mayor Pro Tern Ortiz noted that this issue has been brought up to the ORTIZ Council on various occasions and that it is finally time for the Council to act considering the residents' concerns of impeded visibility when traveling by car. He spoke in favor of adopting the proposed ordinance and issuing temporary parking permits on a trial basis.
COUNCILMEMBER Councilmember Ambriz acknowledged that RV parking along streets AMBRIZ can pose health and safety risks and suggested acting to address the concerns before somebody is hurt. He stated that the proposed ordinance needs some adjustment and recommended that: 1) residents be allowed 72 hours to load or unload their RV' s, 2) residents also be allowed to park their vehicles on their property if the property is sufficiently large, and 3) that visiting families be allowed to inhabit the RV' s for up to 14 days. He spoke in favor of adopting an ordinance so that city officials may enforce the new law.
MAYOR BURROLA Mayor Burrola reiterated the concerns that residents have expressed to him and stated that parking permits would prolong the concerns rather than solve them.
Responding to a question by Mayor Burrola, City Manager Miranda advised that the draft ordinance included in the staff report is a compilation of provisions enacted by other cities that staff felt would work in Irwindale.
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES JUNE 25, 2025
REGULAR MEETING PAGE 8
Mayor Burrola noted that other cities are experiencing similar concerns and stated that he is in favor of adopting the ordinance.
COUNCILMEMBER Councilmember Breceda stated that the provisions in the draft BRECEDA ordinance are too harsh and suggested that it be revised to assist residents rather than penalize them.
COUNCILMEMBER Councilmember Ambriz disagreed that the Council is attempting to AMBRIZ penalize the residents, though he did agree to revising the ordinance and analyzing it further at the next Council meeting.
COUNCILMEMBER Councilmember Garcia suggested holding a community workshop in GARCIA order to gather input and suggestions from residents to determine what works best for the City.
COUNCILMEMBER Councilmember Ambriz stated that he does not see the need to hold AMBRIZ a workshop since residents have already approached him to express their concerns and viewpoints.
MAYOR PRO TEM Mayor Pro Tern Ortiz noted that this item has already been tabled and ORTIZ noted the need to provide direction. He stated that the report and accompanying ordinance contain the direction that the Council would like to proceed with.
COUNCILMEMBER Councilmember Breceda suggested that a workshop be held so that BRECEDA residents could voice their opinions, both positive and negative.
MAYOR BURROLA Mayor Burrola stated that neighbors have complained directly with him and that they may not be willing to express their complaints in public at a workshop. He suggested tabling this matter to the next meeting for further discussion.
COUNCILMEMBER Councilmember Garcia suggested that the ordinance include GARCIA provisions to address parking of commercial vehicles.
COUNCILMEMBER Councilmember Ambriz concurred with Councilmember Garcia.
AMBRIZ
LINDA STROBEHN Linda Strobehn asked Mayor Burrola why he did not feel that RV parking was an issue when he owned and parked one in front of his home. She also asked Councilmember Ambriz why he did not require his mother to move an RV from behind her home. She made allegations that Code Enforcement staff is directed to turn a blind eye to the actions of certain residents.

GARY STROBEHN Gary Strobehn asked for documentation detailing the health and safety issues that are being posed by allowing RVs to remain parked along the streets.
ROBERT MORAGO Robert Morago also asked which safety issues are being created by parked RVs. He noted that some residences share driveways where RVs could not be parked. He also spoke in favor of holding a workshop so that residents can voice their opinions.
DONIELLE STROBEHN- Donielle Strobehn- Gamez asked to see a report that indicated the residents' safety concerns. She stated her opinion that the Council has enacted ordinances in the past for ill- conceived reasons to please a handful of residents. She also asked why the Council would consider allowing RV' s to be parked for 72 hours since they presumably would cause visibility issues during this time as well. She suggested that a workshop be held.
MARICELA FRYMARK Maricela Frymark stated that RV' s pose significant safety issues since they obstruct visibility for motorists and create hazards for pedestrians. She also stated that she had observed an unhoused individual hiding behind a parked RV after which he jumped a fence onto the mining pit. She supported allowing RV' s to be parked for 72 hours for loading or unloading and allowing them to be parked for seven to ten days for visitors.
MOTION A motion was made by Mayor Burrola, seconded by Mayor Pro Tern Ortiz, to table this matter for further discussion at the next meeting.
The motion was approved; Councilmember Breceda opposed since he preferred holding a workshop, Councilmember Garcia abstaining, and all others in favor.
