Everyday Street Cleaning Rules - Not Enforced

Street Cleaning rules for streets that are cleaned "Everyday" will NOT be enforced. 

Residential Street Parking Rules - Not Enforced

The hourly limit rules for residential parking will not be enforced.  Visitors to San Francisco, can easily visit friends and spend more than the usual limit of 2 hours.  A ticket for violating this rule is $74.  Because this rule will not be enforced, take advantage of this and leisurely spend time in San Francisco.  This is FREE parking for the entire day.  Park at a residential spot for free instead of paying for parking.
