ONN – Oakland Parking Meters, Residential Permit Parking, Not Enforced During Pandemic
Search question: “Are parking meters in effect in Oakland, CA during the corona virus lock down?”
The City of Oakland reports that the following parking-related policies are effective during the pandemic:
“Parking meters, residential permit parking, time-limited parking and street sweeping parking regulations will not be enforced.
As a matter of public sanitation, the City will continue street sweeping efforts, as they represent the single most efficient way to keep streets clean. The City asks for the community’s voluntary assistance to move their cars so that street sweeping equipment can get to the litter and other refuse that needs to be cleaned off Oakland streets.
The City will continue to enforce all other parking regulations in service of public safety and public health, including red curbs and fire hydrants, sidewalk and crosswalk blocking, double-parking and bike lane violations, wheelchair ramp obstruction, and unauthorized use of disabled person parking placards.
Towing will be suspended unless vehicles are blocking access, causing and immediate hazard, or are deemed a public safety concern.”
Stay tuned.
Note from Zennie62Media and Oakland News Now: this video-blog post demonstrates the full and live operation of the latest updated version of an experimental Zennie62Media , Inc. mobile media video-blogging system network that was launched June 2018. This is a major part of Zennie62Media , Inc.’s new and innovative approach to the production of news media. What we call “The Third Wave of Media”. The uploaded video is from a vlogger with the Zennie62 on YouTube Partner Channel, then uploaded to and formatted automatically at the Oakland News Now site and Zennie62-created and owned social media pages. The overall objective is smartphone-enabled, real-time, on the scene reporting of news, interviews, observations, and happenings anywhere in the World and within seconds and not hours. Now, news is reported with a smartphone: no heavy and expensive cameras or even a laptop are necessary. The secondary objective is faster, and very inexpensive media content news production and distribution. We have found there is a disconnect between post length and time to product and revenue generated. With this, the problem is far less, though by no means solved. Zennie62Media is constantly working to improve the system network coding and seeks interested content and media technology partners.
