SIERRA MADRE INITIATES NEW PUBLIC 
PARKING LOT REGULATIONS 

This year, the Sierra Madre City Council adopted 
Resolution No. 19-13 which applies the 
city-wide overnight parking regulations to the 
City’s public parking lots. Overnight parking 
will now require a permit as it does on City 
streets. There will continue to be no permit or 
fees required for morning, afternoon, and evening 
use. 

The lots affected are: South Baldwin Public 
Parking Lot, Mariposa Public Parking Lot, Auburn 
Public Parking Lot, East Montecito Public 
Parking Lot. 

In addition to security considerations, the new 
regulations are expected to increase the equitability 
of parking availability and increase the 
parking options for those who intend to shop 
in Sierra Madre’s commercial district. 

A permit is required to park on a public parking lot between the hours of 3:00am 
and 5:00am. There is a 72-hour maximum as well as a two-ton maximum on each 
vehicle. Permits may be acquired from the City’s website at www.cityofsierramadre.
com and selecting the “Parking” icon on the left menu. 

For additional information, please contact the Public Works Department at 
626-355-7135. 


RISE AGAINST HUNGER VOLUNTEER EVENT

SATURDAY 10/19/2019

 Rotary's Rise Against Hunger is an international 
hunger relief organization that distributes food and 
life-changing aid to the world’s most vulnerable, 
mobilizing the necessary resources to end hunger by 
2030. The organization is driven by the vision of a 
world without hunger. Its mission is to end hunger in 
our lifetime by providing food and life-changing aid 
to the world’s most vulnerable and creating a global 
commitment to mobilize the necessary resources.

Rotary clubs of Sierra Madre and Arcadia sponsors 
are inviting Interactors, Key club, school volunteers 
and anyone from the community to sign up and 
come assemble meals. This is really families supporting families. Last year there 
were 70 volunteers who had a great time measuring 20,000 packages.

Both your service and monetary contribution is welcome.
