Parking rules to know in Downey
What your signs must list
Tow-away signs have to list the phone number of the local traffic law enforcement agency. In Downey, that's the Downey Police Department. We print it on the free signs we install.
Overnight street parking in Downey
When street parking is tight overnight, more cars end up in private lots. Check with the city for any overnight street-parking rules in Downey, and post your own property's overnight rule clearly so it can be enforced.
Who authorizes each tow
Someone authorized by your property signs a written authorization for each tow and is present to verify the violation. Vehicles in fire lanes, within 15 feet of a hydrant, or blocking an entrance or exit can be covered by a written general authorization instead.
