§ 3-2.1900. Legislative Purpose.

The residential parking requirements established in this chapter are intended to regulate and manage traffic and parking circulation in response to the adverse effects caused in certain areas and neighborhoods of Modesto by motor vehicle congestion, particularly the long-term parking of non-residence by limiting on- street parking availability in a manner that facilitates the ability of residents with residential parking permits to park in close proximity to their residence and promotes sufficient parking availability in a particular area when and where needed. A system of residential parking will serve to promote the safety, health and welfare of all the residents of Modesto by reducing a number of strains on residents of the City. For the reasons set forth in this chapter and pursuant to the authority of Vehicle Code Section 22507, a system of residential parking is enacted for the City.
