Topline:

Parking enforcement and restrictions will be eased within a one block radius from polling sites within Los Angeles city limits.

When does it take effect: The restrictions and enforcement will be relaxed as long as the polling site is open on Election Day — March 5 — and on all other days the voting center is open.

What are the exemptions: Parking time limits will not be enforced, neither will parking meters or street sweeping restrictions.

Red, yellow, disabled zone rules still apply. People will also still have to obey “No Parking Anytime” and “No Stopping Anytime” signs.
