The City of LA last week resumed enforcing a variety of parking rules that had been suspended when the pandemic forced many residents to stay at home.
That means you can once again get a ticket for leaving your vehicle on the wrong side of the street on street sweeping day.
After seven months without sweeping, do your streets look any worse? Do we need to resume the street sweeping and the alternate-side parking and ticketing that goes with it? Take our poll on the subject.

Street cleaning is not being restarted because of the need to clean the streets. The City Council specifically said they need the money from the tickets. It is being restarted as a tax on people who have no off-street parking alternative, tax the poor not the rich. $75 for a ticket, not something more reasonable, like maybe $20. The ticket price alone tells you it is about making money.
Seriously. There's no way the city cares enough about clean streets to give $70+ fines. Plus, we all saw what the streets looked like after over 6 months without street sweeping --- was there any noticeable difference?
NOPE. I saw a street sweeper go by last Friday and it left a bunch of beer cans in it's wake. Street sweeping has nothing to do with cleanliness.
