RULES AND REGULATIONS
STACKED PARKING LOT
TRAFFIC RESOLUTION 3968
Adopted July 17, 2001
1. Stacked parking spaces are two parking spaces which are assigned to pairs of County
employees, where one car parks directly behind another. The County Administrator
or his designee will act as the Program Administrator for the Stacked Parking
Program.
2. A permit will be issued to participants in the Stacked Parking Program. This permit
must be displayed and clearly visible from the outside of each vehicle parked in the
stacked parking lot. Stacked parking permits will be renewed every three years.
3. To qualify for stacked parking participants must meet the following conditions: (1)
they must be full time employees on active duty, (2) their assigned work location
must be a County facility in downtown Martinez, (3) they must currently drive alone
to work at least four days per week.
4. Permits for stacked parking spaces will be allocated based on a lottery system.
5. If a participant in the Stacked Parking Program reduces his or her hours from full
time, is transferred to a different location, on any form of extended leave (more than
four weeks), or for any other reason unable to utilize his or her assigned stacked
parking space, that person must notify the Program Administrator within one week of
the change. The Program Administrator will attempt to replace any partner that no
longer qualifies for stacked parking. However, if a substitute cannot be found, both
partners will forfeit their stacked parking spaces.
6. Violations of any of the above provisions of stacked parking will result in revocation
of the stacked parking permit. All other legal remedies may be used by the Program
Administrator to manage the Stacked Parking Program including citation and/or
towing from the stacked parking lot.
