Almost every parking ticket written here is avoidable, and it comes down to two things: knowing when your block is cleaned, and knowing whether you’re in a permit zone. Both are below — or scan the code at the bottom and type your address to get just your own block.
Find your street in the list below and note that row’s dates — those are the 2026 cleaning days for your block. If your street isn’t listed, or you’re near an edge, check your exact address at autopilotamerica.com/check-your-street. Tickets are written from 9am; the restriction lifts at 2pm.
