A house in my neighborhood has various cars parked around it. Is this legal?
If any of the vehicles are dismantled or incapable of being moved under their own power, they are considered inoperable vehicles and are not allowed to be parked on streets or private property unless garaged. Owners of illegally parked vehicles can be made to remove them within a specified time period. If the owner fails to remove junk or inoperable vehicles, a warrant may be obtained to remove vehicle(s) and/or immediate removal. Contact Vehicle Abatement for specific information 510-621-1278.
