LASD To Not Enforce Most Parking Restrictions During Stay-At-Home Order In Unincorporated Areas

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (LASD) announced Wednesday that they are not going to be issuing parking citations in the unincorporated Los Angeles County during the stay-at-home order.     

The recent stay at home order issued in early December brought to light once again the need for additional parking across Los Angeles County, according to Sheriff’s officials. 

Understanding the needs and challenges of those in the communities, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Parking Enforcement Detail is set to temporarily relax parking enforcement, effective immediately, to help cope with parking availability, according to the department.

Temporary relaxed enforcement in the unincorporated areas of Los Angeles County are expected to include:

Street sweeping:  All streets with posted signs for street sweeping, are set to not be enforced.

Expired registration: Vehicles with expired registration are expected to not be cited for registrations expired in excess of six months, in violation of, will not be towed.

However, enforcement in the unincorporated areas of Los Angeles County will continue for blocking fire hydrants, red zone parking and/or fire lane, handicap parking violations, blocking driveways, parked vehicles which disrupt the flow of traffic, and metered parking in business districts.

The Sheriff’s Department will continue to enforce violations which pose an immediate risk to public safety.
