Abandonment issues<\/p>\n
The Sunnyvale City Council recently updated the city\u2019s 72-hour parking ordinance to address public safety concerns.<\/p>\n
The previous ordinance did not specify how far a vehicle had to be moved after 72 hours or how long it had to stay away before returning to the same spot. A recent citywide parking review identified concerns about oversized vehicles, including blocked sidewalks, reduced visibility, sanitation issues and inoperable RVs being rented as unregulated living spaces on public streets.<\/p>\n
Per the updated ordinance, vehicles must move at least 1,000 feet after the 72-hour limit and cannot return to the same parking space for at least 24 hours. Vehicles cannot be rented or leased for human habitation on public streets.<\/p>\n
Vehicle abatement officers began enforcing the new rules in June. Vehicles that violate the ordinance may receive citations or be towed at the owner\u2019s expense.
