A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF REDDING
PROHIBITING PARKING ON CERTAIN DESIGNATED AREAS
PURSUANT TO REDDING MUNICIPAL CODE SECTION 11.24.040
WHEREAS, California Vehicle Code ~ 22507 provides that a local government may, by ordinance
or resolution, restrict the stopping, parking or standing of vehicles on certain streets or highways, or
portions thereof, during all or certain hours of the day; and
WHEREAS, Redding Municipal Code ~ 11.24.040 provides that it is unlawful for the operator of
a vehicle to stop or park for any period of time at any place which the City Council, by resolution,
prohibits said action by making a finding that the area so restricted is unsuitable, dangerous, or
inconvenient for parking; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Redding Municipal Code ~ 11.04.020, the traffic control map is maintained

regulating motor vehicle traffic, including parking regulation, within the City of Redding; and
WHEREAS, the City Council may amend the traffic control map by resolution to further regulate
and control traffic; and

being used for the sole purpose of displaying motor vehicles and vessels for the purpose of sale or
lease; and

public at large and that said activity unnecessarily blights public streets and rights-of-way;
