Parking Permits In Pasadena

If you couldn't figure out what this was all about we have decided to put in a swimming pool. One of the inconveniences of this project is that we have to move Ravey (our RV has recently been named Ravey by Sydney) onto the street so that the workers can get themselves and their equipment easily into the backyard. Mom always complains that the City of Pasadena is always trying anything they can to get money out of you and I have found parking permits to be no exception.

When David was out of town last week I decided I didn't want to pull Ravey in and out of the driveway every night so I simply got a parking permit for 3 days. Note that the parking permits can be obtained for longer than 3 days and when picking up a permit you pick how many days you want it for and then place it inside the vehicle dashboard. It states the vehicle license number on the permit and the day of expiration.

We were within the time frames indicated on the parking permit and we received the following notice on Ravey: The vehicle appeared to be abandoned and we were in violation of a city ordinance. If the vehicle remained parked at the location for 72 hours it would be towed at our expense. If we didn't claim the vehicle in 15 days it would be sold. So you can buy parking passes for longer than 3 days but if you use it the city will determine your vehicle has been abandoned.
