street sweeping enforcement in 2024<\/a>, ending a five-year period of no restrictions.\u00a0<\/p>\n\u201cThe reason we reinstated the street sweeping citations was we were receiving a lot of complaints from the community about people not moving their cars,\u201d Councilwoman Christine Marick said at the March 3 meeting. \u201cObviously during the pandemic period, we had a lot of people at home, so we opened up a lot with respect to overnight parking and street sweeping.\u201d<\/p>\n
According to Brioso, the exemptions will apply to cars with disability placards and disabled veterans\u2019 license plates. It will not apply to any place where stopping or parking is fully prohibited by law \u2013 such as bus zones, commercial loading zones and other restricted use spaces.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Brea Police Chief Adam Hawley said the city had been relying on state code instead of a local ordinance.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe currently don\u2019t have our own city code. We point to the state vehicle code which the state allows us to create a local ordinance much like we\u2019ve done with other things,\u201d Hawley said. \u201cSo it creates our own city code and then we can set a fine amount associated with that.\u201d<\/p>\n
Marick pointed out resident complaints about neighbors parking in front other people\u2019s homes during street sweeping days while Councilmember Blair Stewart emphasized the importance of the task and the positive impact that it has on the environment and the city\u2019s waterways.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Councilmember Steve Vargas said the presentation\u00a0 should have noted the fine increase ahead of being presented to the council.<\/p>\n
This change in Brea comes as Fullerton begins street sweeping restrictions in the Wednesday zones of the city.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Last year, the city voted to resume ticketing for parking violations after a five-month lull in enforcement, restructuring its schedule to an alternating biweekly route to accommodate residents who live in apartment complexes.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Parking enforcement in Fullerton is to resume once signs in the respective zones have been updated \u2013 with the Wednesday zone being the latest of the updates.\u00a0<\/p>\n
