MLPD REMINDS ALL VISITORS AND RESIDENTS TO FOLLOW TOWN PARKING LAWS AND SIGNAGE
January 27, 2022 – The Mammoth Lakes Police Department is reminding all
visitors and residents to follow Town parking laws and signage. Mammoth Lakes is
experiencing record visitation, which is impacting available parking, especially near
busy ski lifts areas such as Canyon Lodge and the Village at Mammoth. Parking
Enforcement Officers are patrolling and issuing citations daily. You can avoid
receiving a parking citation by:
• Not parking at the Lakes Basin’s closed gate at the east end of Lake Mary Rd.
unless all 4 of your tires are on dirt/off pavement. Alternatives to accessing
recreation in the Lakes Basin during the winter might be taking the Orange
Line Shuttle Bus or having someone drop you off. Parking illegally at this
gate also impedes emergency vehicle access.
• Not parking in the “No Parking Zones” on Highway 203, Minaret Rd., Meridian
Blvd. near Eagle Lodge and on Hillside Dr., Rainbow Ln., Lakeview Blvd., and
Davison Rd. near Canyon Lodge and the Village at Mammoth.
• Leaving the “Handicap” spaces for drivers with Disabled Person Parking
Placards and Plates.
• Parking facing the correct direction of travel.
• Only parking in designated spaces while in Shady Rest Park.
• Not blocking fire hydrants or fire lanes.
Since November 1, 2021, MLPD has issued 396 parking citations with 256 of these
being on roads leading to Canyon Lodge. Parking citations can be paid online at
