TheCity of Seattle is resuming full parking enforcement for any vehicle which has remained in one place for longer than 72 hours, returning to the normal standards which were temporarily paused in 2020 due to COVID-19 public health guidelines. Parking enforcement officers will continue to provide official warning notifications on vehicles allowing owners and occupants to move them before enforcement occurs.

Vehicle owners should get back in the habit of regularly moving vehicles to avoid a possible warning and citation. People should also check their block regularly for temporary parking restriction signs, which can be placed with a minimum of 24-hours notice for things like emergency utility work, cleaning, or special events.


Seattle Municipal Code does not allow a person to park a vehicle on the same block of a city street for longer than 72 consecutive hours. Public streets are not an appropriate place for long-term vehicle storage.


Regardless of whether or not there is any sign posted, the City's Traffic Code does not allow a vehicle to be parked on a city street for longer than 72 hours. Move your vehicle off the blockface at least once every 72 hours. If you are going on vacation, find off-street parking or leave your keys with a trusted neighbor to check your vehicle and move it as needed.


Additionally, check your block regularly for temporary parking restriction signs, which can be placed with a minimum of 24-hours notice for things like emergency utility work, cleaning, or special events. Vehicles must be moved by the time indicated or drivers may receive a citation and their vehicle may be towed and impounded.


The first step of enforcement is leaving official warning notices on vehicles, giving the owner time to move them voluntarily and avoid enforcement action. If it appears that people may be living in one of the vehicles, they will receive information about assistance, support services, and resources.


Seattle Public Utilities (SPU) continues to lead the RV Remediation program, which focuses on cleaning up and disposing of debris and waste around RVs to ensure public health and safety. Days prior to a scheduled remediation event, SPU and parking enforcement staff engage with people staying in RVs to make them aware of the upcoming clean-up activity. SDOT will continue to work with SPU to prioritize the locations of these clean-up efforts over time.


If a car is towed from a public street, instructions to locate the vehicle and documents required to release your vehicle are available via the resources below. The first step to find and reclaim your vehicle is to contact Lincoln Towing at (206) 364-2000 or search for your vehicle online.


To report an abandoned vehicle that is within the Seattle city limits, on a public street or City property, and parked there for over 72 hours, call one of the numbers below or submit a report through the Find It, Fix It app.


The parking enforcement team cannot be everywhere at once and expects it to take longer than usual to respond to the many requests predicted to happen. The enforcement process takes time, and the parking enforcement team will respond to violations as swiftly as possible given capacity.


The Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT) is on a mission to deliver a transportation system that provides safe and affordable access to places and opportunities for everyone as we work to achieve our vision of Seattle as a thriving, equitable community powered by dependable transportation.


In 2018, Baltimore adopted a new Complete Streets Ordinance that changed the city's transportation landscape. The Complete Streets approach elevates the priority of pedestrians, bicyclists, and transit users in planning and roadway design to increase the quality of life and mobility in Baltimore City.


The Complete Streets Advisory Committee meets at least four times per year to discuss the development of the Complete Streets Manual, propose complete streets projects, and encourage interagency collaboration.


Passenger Loading Zone: Reserved for the exclusive purpose of expeditiously taking on or discharging passengers within the limited time required. These zones do not allow for continuous parking.


Passenger Loading Zone in a Residential Area: If applying for a Passenger Loading Zone in front of a residence located in a residential area, please download and complete this addendum.


Reserved Handicap Parking: Designated spaces for any vehicle that displays special registration plates or placards for people with disabilities. This area is open to the use of the general public (designated at medical centers, nursing homes, and other public facilities)


Parking Meter Installation: Direct installations, or order the installation of parking meters on the portions of the city streets, thoroughfares, and public places for the City of Baltimore.




On October 19, 2021, the City Commission adopted code changes through Ordinance 3230 prohibiting the long-term parking/storage of Recreational vehicles, utility trailers and vessels on streets within Residential Districts. These changes go into effect on March 15, 2022. Residents currently using the street for long-term parking or storage of these items should begin looking for other permanent storage options. This will impact vehicles listed in the Definitions portion of Title 10, Section 10.1.010.


Effective March 15, 2022, it will be unlawful for any person to park a recreational vehicle, trailer or vessel upon the public right-of-way in any residential zoning district except for the limited purpose of loading and unloading, which shall be limited to a period of no more than seventy-two (72) hours in a seven (7) day period.


To report a potential violation please call the GFPD 24-hour non-emergency line at 406-455-8599, or complete an Online Citizen Complaint form. Please be patient with the process, due to limited city resources, complaints will be handled as scheduling allows.


Routine removal of dead or dying branches can be done at any time. Flowering trees should be pruned after blooming. The best time to trim living branches is late in the dormant season or very early spring before leaves form.


Property owners are required to replace any trees removed from the public right-of-way. Property owners are also required to obtain a free Tree Care Permit from the City of Hillsboro before:


The property owner is required to comply or contact the City to discuss scheduled trimming within 15 calendar days of receiving notification. If this does not occur, the City of Hillsboro Code Compliance Division will take steps to address the code requirements.


During the first two years, the street trees and other public landscaping will require maintenance assurance. Maintenance assurance is generally in the form of a maintenance bond for 100% of the cost of the landscaping. This is to ensure the plantings are well-established and any dead or dying plantings are replaced prior to the City accepting them as public landscaping.


When submitting a Tree Care Permit or General Right-of-Way Permit for the tree work, provide a certificate of liability insurance with coverage of $2M in general aggregate. The certificate should include the City of Hillsboro as the additional insured. See an example of the certificate of liability insurance.


Adult Elm Seed Bugs have a dark chocolate body with a downward facing-triangle on their back and emit an odor when crushed or smashed. While the bugs are not native to Oregon and can be a nuisance in summer and fall, they pose no threat to human health, plants, or structures.


Simple efforts like keeping your yard free of leaves and debris, sealing entrances and windows, and inspecting firewood before bringing it inside can help prevent Elm Seed Bugs from entering your home.


The emerald ash borer (EAB) was first found in the United States in 2002, outside Detroit, Michigan. The beetles have since killed hundreds of millions of ash trees, mostly in the Midwest and on the East Coast.


These invasive beetles were recently discovered in the Forest Grove area. While Oregon ash tree species have built up chemical defenses to native insects, they cannot defend against the emerald ash borer.


The City of Auburn has established an Adopt-a-Street Program consistent with the State's Adopt-a-Highway Program. The program is a partnership between volunteers and the City of Auburn to create a better living environment by reducing street-side litter and improving general appearance throughout the City.


Participating groups agree to remove litter from an assigned section of street or right-of-way at least four times a year, over a minimum one year period. The City will provide volunteers with safety supplies such as gloves, vests, masks, bags and training. The City also provides pick up and disposal of full bags placed at a designated location along the assigned section of street. Additionally, after volunteers complete four clean-up activities within the first year, the City will install a recognition sign with your name on it to thank you for your efforts.


Residents and businesses are responsible for maintaining their own property, adjacent sidewalks, and street frontage. If there is a particular street that you would like to adopt, you can submit an application. Requested streets are reviewed for safety, need, and appropriateness for the program. Not all streets can be approved for the program. If the street you request is approved, you will be required to sign an Agreement, Waiver, and Hold Harmless form, and watch a safety training video to be able to participate in the program.
