City Council Meeting: January 23, 2024
Agenda Item: 10.C
1 of 6
To: Mayor and City Council
From: Anuj Gupta, Director of Transportation, Parking Operations (DOT)
Subject: Introduction and First Reading of an Ordinance Amending Santa Monica
Municipal Code Section 3.12.900 on Overnight Parking Permits for Oversized
Vehicles
Recommended Action
Staff recommends that the City Council:
1. Adopt a finding of no possibility of significant effect pursuant to Section
15061(b)(3) (Common Sense Exemption) of the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA) Guidelines.
2. Introduce for first reading the attached ordinance amending Santa Monica
Municipal Code Section 3.12.900 on overnight parking permits for oversized
vehicles.
Summary
To deter the proliferation of oversized vehicles (OVs) from using the public right of way
for long-term parking, staff recommends amending Santa Monica Municipal Code
(SMMC) section 3.12.900 as follows: (1) require that the oversized vehicle be parked
within a two-block radius of the permitted Santa Monica resident’s address; (2) limit the
duration of an oversized vehicle permit for a non-Santa Monica resident to seven days
per month; and (3) authorize certain City staff to adopt administrative regulations that
are consistent with the ordinance and authorize the Santa Monica Police Department to
enforce such administrative regulations.
Discussion
In 1975, the Council adopted Ordinance 988 (CCS) (similar to the current SMMC
section 3.12.900), which defined OVs and established a permitting process
10.C
Packet Pg. 849
2 of 6
(administered by the Chief of Police or his/her representative) for non-commercial OVs
to park in the public right of way (ROW) during overnight hours. This ordinance
established the definition of an oversized vehicle as any vehicle that “together with all
fixtures, accessories or property with the exception of single post radio antennas,
measures more than eight feet in width, or eight feet in height, or twenty feet in length.”
The duration of the permit was established as two 24-hour periods with not more than
three permits in any 30 days for one resident.
In 2012, the Council adopted Ordinance 2403 (CCS), which built upon Ordinance 988
(CCS) and established SMMC section 3.12.900 (Overnight parking permits for
oversized vehicles). Ordinance 2403 removed the “Chief of Police” language and
replaced it with “City” allowing departments/divisions other than the Police Department
(such as the Parking Division) to issue OV permits. Ordinance 2403 also clarified that
the OV permit is for “non-commercial passenger vehicles, as defined by the Vehicle
Code, which together with all fixtures, accessories or property with the exception of
single post radio antennas, measures more than eight feet in width, or eight feet in
height, or twenty feet in length.”
In 2013, the Council adopted Ordinance 2416 (CCS) removing the two 24-hour permit
periods, and three maximum permits for a 30-day period, allowing residents to obtain
consecutive 30-day permits.
Under SMMC section 3.12.900, City residents can obtain a 30-day OV permit free of
charge and renew these permits every 30 days. There is no requirement for the vehicle
to be registered to a resident, only that the permit be issued to a resident. This itself
leads to potential abuse of the program from residents who can assist any non-resident
of the City seeking free OV storage.
At any given time, there are roughly 45 to 50 active OV permits in the City granted
under the SMMC section 3.12.900. These OVs are parked throughout the City in the
right of way (ROW), mostly on residential streets. They consist of full-size recreational
vehicles (RVs) and smaller (but still oversized) “sprinter” vans.
10.C
Packet Pg. 850
3 of 6
The Santa Monica Police Department’s (SMPD) Parking Enforcement Division has
observed low parking turnover of permitted OVs parked on streets with lesser parking
restrictions (i.e., streets not regulated by preferential parking). OVs are generally not
used as a primary form of transportation and are often stored on the ROW and moved
to avoid parking citations for street sweeping once a week.
The Department of Transportation (DOT) Parking Division and SMPD receive several
complaints per month regarding some of these oversized vehicles. Resident complaints
generally consist of the following:
• OVs taking up additional parking in areas where street parking is in high demand.
• Limited parking availability and infrequent parking turnover of OVs.
• Vehicles are not being parked in the vicinity of where the permitted resident lives.
• OVs being used for storage of personal belongings.
• OV owners frequently choose wider residential streets with more available
parking and not near the permitted resident’s address.
City staff is proposing amending SMMC section 3.12.900 to deter OVs from
continuously using the ROW for long-term parking/storage. These proposed
amendments will support on-street parking availability. In addition, the amendment will
create a more equitable system of granting these permits, prevent the potential sale of
these permits, and more equitably manage the use of the ROW.
PROPOSED CHANGES
Two Block Radius for Oversized Vehicle Permits
The first proposed SMMC amendment is to add a two-block radius restriction for OVs.
Under this amendment, the permitted oversized vehicle must be parked within two
blocks of the address of the permitted resident. This aligns with the City’s preferential
parking permit policy, wherein a permitted regular-sized vehicle must be parked within
two blocks of the permit holder’s address in a preferential parking permit zone. This
10.C
Packet Pg. 851
4 of 6
amendment would prohibit individuals from abusing this permit and parking/storing their
oversized vehicle anywhere in the City.
7-Day Permit for Visitor Oversized Vehicles (for Non-Resident Registered
Vehicles)
The second proposed amendment is to limit visitor oversized vehicle permits to 7 days
per every 30 days for visiting OVs. Currently, the code is written to allow one permit
every 30 days with no limit on the length of the permit, and there is no requirement that
the owner of the vehicle be a resident of the City, only that the permit holder must be a
resident. Therefore, a resident can obtain a permit for a non-resident. This was intended
to be used by residents expecting out-of-town visitors with an OV, enabling the visitors
to park their OV in the ROW while visiting. However, several people have openly
informed Parking Division permitting staff that they seek and obtain “sponsors” (people
who are residents and obtain OV permits for non-residents), and the sponsors obtain
OV permits for non-residents every 30 days. Parking Division and SMPD staff
frequently receive complaints, but an amendment to the language of SMMC section
3.12.900 is needed to address the issue.
The proposed amendment would require that the duration of an OV permit for a non-
resident’s oversized vehicle be limited to seven consecutive days per month instead of
30 days. This would align usage with more of a visitor model. The length of the permit
(not the resident/non-resident status) is similar to regulations in the City of Los Angeles
and Culver City, which both allow 3-day maximum length permits. It is also similar (in
length) to the original Santa Monica ordinance that allowed 6 consecutive days for OV
parking (3 consecutive 2-day permits). A Santa Monica resident would still be able to
obtain a 30-day oversized vehicle permit for their own oversized vehicle.
Authorize Designated City Staff to Establish Administrative Regulations
The third proposed amendment authorizes the City Manager or his/her designee to
adopt administrative regulations that are consistent with the ordinance and authorizes
SMPD to enforce such administrative regulations. This will allow minor changes and
10.C
Packet Pg. 852
5 of 6
adjustments to be made at the staff level. Similar administrative regulation authorization
language can be found in the preferential parking zone ordinance.
Environmental Review
The amendments to the SMMC on oversize vehicle parking are exempt from the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) (Common
Sense Exemption) of the CEQA Guidelines, which states that CEQA does not apply,
“where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in
question may have a significant effect on the environment.” The amendments would
make programmatic changes to the oversized vehicle parking permit process.
Therefore, it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in
question may have a significant effect on the environment.

Packet Pg. 901 Attachment: Ordinance 2416 (6129 : Oversized Vehicle Municipal Code Updates)
WHEREAS, certain existing laws regulating parking do not promote public
welfare, because they do not adequately address present traffic and parking conditions
in the City, including the circumstances under which temporary exclusive use of on-

these existing laws create confusion, hinder compliance, impair enforcement efforts,
and adversely impact traffic and parking circulation; and
WHEREAS, based on the foregoing, it is necessary to add and amend sections
of the Municipal Code relating to parking in order to: better regulate traffic and parking
circulation throughout the City; ensure adequate parking availability for residents,

Subject:January 23, 2024 - Agenda Item 10.C - OPP OV
EXTERNAL
Greetings ‐
I am a resident of Santa Monica.
With only 45‐50 OPP oversize vehicles ("OVs") Permits being issued in a city with how many vehicles parking overnight
(?), I question whether this is really an issue that needs to be addressed, or whether there are some personal concerns
here that are being pushed to the forefront. To that end, "Observations" noted in the staff report should be backed up
by support and evidence which is disclosed. "Complaints" noted in the staff report should be backed up by support and
evidence which is disclosed.
Nonetheless:
If residents with OVs had reasonable and convenient options other than parking their vehicles in the public ROW they
would. Many renters and condo owners do not have options. Pretty much only those with private driveways and large
garages do have the option of not parking in the public ROW. And so, in a way, some of the proposals seem
economically discriminatory. (BTW, payroll the alleys of SFRs and you will find an abundance of OVs parked in such a
way that they encroach the public ROW in the alleys.)
The two block radius is onerous, given the nature of oversize vehicles ("OVs"). It is often difficult to find a parking spot
that accommodates a vehicle of the length of some OVs within two blocks of the address of the permitted resident.
Please be more generous and extend the area, perhaps to within a six block radius. (I understand and agree with the
reasoning for not continuing to allow for city‐wide OP.) Also, doing so will minimize the need for the operator of the OV
to drive around looking for an adequate size parking spot within a two block radius, thereby reducing air pollution,
congestion, possibilities of accidents/incidents. Believe me when I say that residents with OVs prefer to park their OV as
close to home as possible, and will not abuse a larger than two block radius rule.
The 7‐day permit for visitors should allow for exceptions. If my elderly parents drive cross country to visit with their new
grandchild they should be allowed to stay for more than 7 days.
As the Supreme Court looks at regulations propagated by administrative agencies, we should be concerned about how
open‐ended, vague, and ambiguous is the proposal to authorize "Designated City Staff to Establish Administrative
Regulations."
Thank you for your attention and consideration.
"Complaints" noted in the staff report should be backed up by support and evidence which is disclosed.

City Council,
I am a citizen of Santa Monica currently residing at 404 Georgina Avenue.
I am writing to voice my support for the proposed changes to the permitting process for oversized vehicles in Santa
Monica. The two‐block rule, the 7‐day limit on non‐resident registered vehicles, as well as granting the city staff the
ability to establish administrative regulations, are all very welcome changes.
Thank you,
Peterson Loftin
