I found those meters the other day. My wife and I were going to have lunch at Las Brisas and all of the meters in that area have the stickers. We went and ate down the coast aways, still in Laguna Beach. We ride throughLaguna Beachonce or twice a week and have never had any problems.
The following is from the Laguna Beach Municiple Code.
10.06.230 Parking restrictions for motorcycles, motor-driven cycles and motorized bicycles.[align=left](a) The city manager may establish parking spaces which are restricted solely to the parking of motorcycles, motor-driven cycles and motorized bicycles.
[/align][align=left](b) Motorcycles, motor-driven cycles and motorized bicycles are prohibited from parking on any street within eight hundred feet of any space which is designated solely for the parking of motorcycles, motor-driven cycles and motorized bicycles except in said designated space, provided that the prohibition is posted. (Ord. 1277 § 1, 1993).

(a) They can make specific spaces specifically for motorcycles.
(b) If a motorcycle designated space is made available for motorcyclesAND a sign prohibiting motorcycles from parking in other spaces is posted then and only then you must park in the specified spaces or you must park 800 feet from those spaces.
I did a quick check and there is nothing in that code about specifying any area a motorcyle free or quite zone. The only items I found were that they must provide a specified parking area for motorcycles if other spaces are to be off limits.
I would say the stickers are a fake. If you know the street name I would send a complaint to the police department and the city council.

IMO, if there isnt a municipal code on the stickers, then f em! I believe that most tow companies will only tow for illegally parked rides IF they are in violation of a code. If someone does tow my ride because they dont like where I parked and I havent violated any code, then small claims here I come!

I'd like to clear up a few misconceptions here about California. First of all, California is a big state. The government does indeed suck, as do a large percentage of the inhabitants. The areas of Laguna Beach and San Francisco can indeed be referred to as "Cali". In the straight areas of California, we object to that term. Contrary to popular belief, there are many normal areas of California left. I lived in Southern California for 30+ years before leaving for the extreme north and never looked back. I will admit that even in this remote outpost of sanity, we do have individuals attempting to screw this place up faster than humanly possible, but so far, we've been able to hold them at bay. California is not lost yet. I fear it will be someday, but not yet.

I came across this on amotorcycle web forum. These Laguna Beach parking meters had these warning stickers on them. I would like to know if this is indeed alegitimate city posting and if so could you provide me with the appropriate ordinance or code number so I may look up the statute...Thank you, [/align]

Well... that is an ordinance that deals with "Motor vehicle" noise... but I see no mention of it having anything at all to do with"Motor vehicle" parking, much lessmotorcycleparking!

It couldn't possibly be that all these ordinances are being imposed due to the f'in aholes that feel the need forattention by blipping their pipes and disturbing neighborhoods. Lets just keep blaming the government.

I somehow do not think that person is not the one you need to talk too....theordinace theyrespondedwithhas nothing to do with quiet zones nor does it specify the prohibition of motor vehicles of any kind that conform to the California Noise regulations.
