Parking Complaints
Parking complaints
By working together, the East Palo Alto Police Department and our community can address parking violations and abandoned vehicles. To do that, it’s important for community members to feel comfortable and willing to communicate with the Department, especially when it comes to reporting.
We offer several ways for you to let us know about parking violations and abandoned vehicles, including our anonymous tip line.
In an emergency or for crimes in progress call 9-1-1.
When reporting parking violations, please include the following information:
- Exact location of the vehicle
- Description of the vehicle (Make, Model, Color, Unique characteristics)
- License plate if available
- Description of the violation
