Vehicles parked on the street blocking neighbors or snowplows, may be cited and/or towed at vehicle owner's expense.
Winter precautions are always in place - you must carry chains from November 1 - April 1. Snow creates limited and "tight" driveway parking - a four-wheel drive vehicle with higher clearance is preferred. Regular vehicles may be challenged by winter icy road or driveway conditions, that is why chains are required. Caltrans and CHP will enforce chain requirements.

Entertainment is at your fingertips with automated TV stands that seamlessly transforms your viewing experience. After a day of outdoor adventures, simply press a button, and the TV gracefully appears (in bedroom and living room).
