Residents urge city enforcement after repeated long‑term commercial parking on Golden Avenue

Two new Golden Avenue residents described repeated storage and overnight parking of large commercial vehicles and trailers in a steep residential block, raising safety concerns. "Lemon Grove municipal code 10.28 0.170 prohibits parking where standing commercial vehicles with a manufacturer's gross weight of 10,000 pounds or more on streets in residential areas," one resident said, and requested that the city install 'no commercial vehicle parking' signage on the 8100 block of Golden Avenue and clarify enforcement responsibility.

Staff reported the sheriff's department has responded and marked tires under the 72‑hour rule and will continue to issue citations as appropriate; staff also said signage is a possible option to support enforcement. Residents asked the council to clarify who in the city is responsible for enforcement and to consider targeted signage to prevent repeat parking and potential safety hazards from unsecured or leaking vehicles.
