LA City Council passed an ordinance which stated:
No catering truck shall park at any Residential Location for a period that exceeds 30 minutes. No catering truck shall park at any Residential Location within two blocks of where the catering truck had been parked at a Residential Location within the previous four hours. Moving the catering truck outside the Residential Location during the four hour period or not dispensing victuals for some portion of the four-hour period will not nullify the time or distance requirements set forth in this subsection. Failure to comply with the time or distance requirements set forth in this subsection shall constitute a separate and distinct offense for every 3O-minute period that a catering truck remains out of compliance with either the time or distance requirements, with each subsequent violation subject to the escalated civil penalties listed in Section 89.60 of this Code.
