ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF BURLINGAME
REPEALING SECTION 13.32.080 OF THE MUNICIPAL CODE REGARDING
OVERNIGHT PARKING PERMITS
The CITY COUNCIL of the CTTY OF BURLINGAME does hereby ordain as follows:
Section ] . Since at least 1941, the City had prohibited overnight parking on City streets.
In 1962, the City adopted Section 13.32.080, which provided fox parking permits to allow persons
to park overnight. The City also exempted commercial vehicles in certain districts in the City from
the prohibition. Experience has shown that the permit system has become ineffective, and the City
should focus overnight parking limitations and enforcement more effectively.
Section 2. Section 13.32.080 is repealed.
Section 3. This ordinance shall be effective only until March 1, 2013, unless earlier
amended or extended, and if no further action on this ordinance is taken by such date, Section
13.32.080 shall automatically once again become effective as
it existed on February 4, 2008, as.
follows:
13.32.080 Overnight parking.
(a) Permit Required. It is unlawful for the owner or driver of any vehicle to park such
vehicle upon any street or alley in the city between the hours of 2:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m.
without a permit therefor.
(b) Issuance of Permit. In cases of hardship where the owners of vehicles cannot obtain
suitable storage or parking facilities, permits for parking between 2:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m.
may be issued by the chief of police. The application for a permit shall be signed by the
applicant, shall state the make, model and license number of the vehicle and shall contain

the rear of the driver of the vehicle for which it is issued at all times during which the
vehicle is parked upon the street between the hours of 2:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. The chief
of police shall revoke the permit when the necessity under which it was issued and the
reasons therefor cease to exist, or may renew such permit if the hardship still exists.
(c) Exemptions. The provisions of this section shall not apply to a commercial vehicle
of any regularly licensed business in a commercial or industrial zone or to public utility
vehicles while on service or emergency calls, or to vehicles of any regularly licensed
