This Chapter is enacted pursuant to authority granted by California California Vehicle
Code §§ 22507 and 22507.5, to alleviate serious problems in certain residential areas
of the City due, in part, to the misuse of available off-street parking, the parking
of motor vehicles on-streets therein by nonresidents thereof for extended periods
of time, and the ignoring of public transit alternatives to automobile travel available
to said nonresidents, resulting in neighborhood decline in said areas by reason of
traffic congestion, noise, air pollution, traffic hazards and inability of residents
therein to park their motor vehicles near their residences.
