limit of 25 miles per hour is lower than necessary for safety and

be effective when appropriate signs giving notice thereof are erected
upon such streets.
(Prior code § 10-013.3)
Upon the following streets and highways in the City of Stockton,
which are not State highways, a traffic and engineering study has
demonstrated that the Statewide speed limit of 65 miles per hour (55

and safe. Therefore, the speed limits hereinafter set out, which are
safe, reasonable, and appropriate to facilitate the orderly flow of
traffic, are hereby set as the prima facie speed limits for the following
streets and local highways:

Upon the following streets and highways in the City of Stockton,

out, which are safe and reasonable and appropriate to facilitate the
orderly flow of traffic, are hereby set as the prima facie speed limits
for the following streets and local highways:

A. It
is unlawful for any person to drive any motor vehicle on any driveway,
path, parking facility, or grounds of any property owned by the City
at a rate of speed in excess of 10 miles per hour, where appropriate
signs designating said speed limit have been posted giving notice
thereof in a conspicuous place at each entrance to such property owned
by the City, by the City Traffic Engineer with the authority of the
City Manager.
B. A violation
of this section shall be deemed an infraction of this code.
(Prior code § 10-013.12)
The City Traffic Engineer shall establish, designate and maintain
crosswalks at intersections and other places by appropriate devices,
marks or lines upon the surface of the roadway as follows.
(Prior code § 10-014.1)
Crosswalks shall be established and maintained at all intersections within the Central Traffic District and at such intersections outside such district, and at other places within or outside said district, where the City Traffic Engineer determines that there is particular hazard to pedestrians crossing the roadway, subject to the limitations contained in Section
10.04.530.
(Prior code § 10-014.2)
Other than crosswalks at intersections, no crosswalk shall be

Vehicle Code. In the event of such designation implemented by the installation of signals and warning devices as aforesaid, the provisions of Section
10.04.540 hereof will not apply during such times as the "pedestrian interval phasing" signals and warning devices are in actual operation, nor will right turns be permitted against a red light by vehicles during such operation.

B. Regulations
Not Exclusive. The provisions of this code imposing a time limit on
standing, stopping or parking shall not relieve any person from the

or parking of vehicles in specified places or at specified times.
(Prior code §§ 10-017—10-017.2)
A. No

any person park or place upon any roadway, City easement, City sidewalk

of calling the attention of the general public to any business or

than a charitable or nonprofit organization.
B. The
provisions of this section shall not apply to vehicles parked for
sale on the private property of the owner of said vehicle and the
public streets immediately adjacent thereto.
C. In
any case, advertising signs on vehicles parked for sale shall not

private property of a duly authorized and licensed vehicle dealer
as permitted elsewhere in this code.
(Prior code § 10-017.4)
A. No person who owns or has possession, custody or control of any vehicle shall park such vehicle upon any street or alley for more than a period of 72 consecutive hours. In the event a vehicle is parked or left standing upon a street in excess of a period of 72 consecutive hours such vehicle may be removed in the manner and subject to the requirements of Article I of Chapter
10.16.
