A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF

streets and to establish a permit system exempting residents, merchants and
guests from the prohibition; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Article XI (commencing with Section 36-480) of
Chapter 36 of the Santa Ana municipal Code, the City Council of the City of
Santa Ana is authorized to adopt a resolution establishing Permit Parking
Districts wherein parking restrictions apply to all vehicles except vehicles
which have been issued parking permits pursuant to said Article; and
WHEREAS, this Council finds and determines that the Central City
residential neighborhood is in need of a Permit Parking District in order to
protect its integrity against excessive on-street parking.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF SANTA ANA AS FOLLOWS:
1. The Central City Permit Parking District is hereby established, to
consist of that area of the City of Santa Ana located to the west of Bristol Street
and to the south of First Street, and to east of Raitt Street and to the north of
McFadden Avenue, as more particularly depicted in Exhibit "A," attached hereto
and incorporated herein by reference; provided said district does not include any
street on its outer boundary.
2. The parking restrictions imposed pursuant to said Article XI and
this Resolution shall apply to any block within the Central City Permit Parking
District only after a petition signed by the owners of sixty-six percent (66%) or
more of the residential lots abutting such block have filed a petition with the
Executive Director of the Public Works Agency expressing their desire for such
parking restrictions, and after signs indicating the parking restrictions on such
block have been erected in accordance with said Article XI.
3. No person shall park any vehicle at any time on any portion of any
street within the Central City Permit Parking District as to which signs have
been erected indicating the application of permit parking restrictions, except
persons and vehicles exempted from such parking restrictions pursuant to said
Article XI and this resolution.

District shall not apply to the side of any street adjacent to any non-residential
use or to any multi-family use having more than four dwelling units.

parking restrictions pursuant to this resolution include and are limited to the
following:

Permit Parking District, provided that not more than three
pem~its may be issued at any one time to the residents of any
one such dwelling unit.
Any person who is licensed to drive a motor vehicles and who
resides in a multiple-family dwelling located on any lot in the
Central City Permit Parking District which does not have
more than four dwelling units located on it, provided that not
more than one permit may be issued at any one time to the

that the Executive Director of the Public Works Agency may

establish rules for the issuance of guest parking permits to residents of the
Central City Permit Parking District and to issue or deny such permits in
accordance therewith. Such rules shall be designed to limit guest parking
