§ 31-17. Parking within thirty-five feet of intersections.

The parking of vehicles and trailers at any time on any improved public street within a distance less than thirty-five (35) feet from nearest curb line of an intersecting public street is prohibited; provided, that the area in which parking is thus prohibited and the curb space so affected shall be so designated by an appropriate sign or by yellow paint; provided, further, that it is the purpose and intent of this section to prevent the obstruction of the vision of anyone approaching an intersection. The term nearest curb line of an intersecting public street, as used in this section, shall be construed so that measurements shall be made from either the point of intersection of the actual curb or curb lines, or in cases of rounded corners from the point at which a straight extension of the nearest intersecting curb line would meet a straight extension of the nearest curb line of an intersecting public street. (1978 L.M.C., ch. 7, § 2.)

Editor’s note—See County Attorney Opinion dated indicating that long-term parking on public streets is prohibited in certain circumstances, but not based on the size of the vehicle.
