Culver City Continues 'Relaxed' Parking Rules Amid Pandemic

CULVER CITY, CA — As Los Angeles County continues to try and stop the spread of the coronavirus, Culver City residents are encouraged to stay home and the city Thursday announced that the "relaxed parking enforcement" policy will continue through February.

Culver City officials also urged residents to voluntarily move their cars during posted street sweeping times.

"To make every effort to help people stay home and slow the spread of COVID-19, the city of Culver City will continue relaxed parking enforcement through Sunday, February 28," the city said in a statement.

"While parking enforcement on street sweeping days has been temporarily suspended, street sweeping services are still occurring," officials said.

"Understanding that the street sweeper must maneuver around parked cars, many residents have inquired about the relaxed enforcement, and on their own have moved their vehicles off of the street on posted street sweeping days," officials said.

"The city kindly requests motorists to move their cars when possible on street sweeping days during this relaxed enforcement period," the city said.

"If there are any leaves or trash in the curb area that the sweeper cannot reach because of parked cars, the city asks residents to sweep such material out into the street beyond the parked cars an hour or so before the scheduled sweeping time. Or, residents can sweep up the materials and place in their green bins for collection," the city said.

To view streets with existing permit parking restrictions, go to the city's parking permit web page anytime, or call Parking Permit Support at 844- 357-4995 weekdays from 8 a.m .to 5 p.m. to apply for a residential parking permit.
