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.

incorporated herein by reference.

Resolution shall apply to any block within the Pico-Lowell Permit Parking District only

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

more than one permit may be issued at any one time to the resident of anyone
such dwelling unit; and provided further, that the Executive Director of the Public
Works Agency may waive the foregoing limitation on the number of dwelling units
on a lot if he determines that its application in a particular case would cause
extreme hardship on the residents of such dwelling units due to a severe
inadequacy of on-site parking.
SECTION 7. The Executive Director of the Public Works Agency is authorized to
establish rules for the issuance of guest parking permits to residents of the Logan
