The Seattle City Council has proposed limiting street parking for motorhomes and travel trailers without a permit to two hours and banning overnight parking from midnight to 6 a.m. The rules would take effect in 2027, with enforcement starting by July 31 of that year; violators could be towed without prior notice. The Vehicle Resident Assistance Program (VRAP), introduced by Councilmember Dan Strauss, allocates $5 million for outreach, safe parking lots, and vehicle storage. Permits would be limited to individuals identified in a one-time street survey and would allow parking in designated industrial areas for up to 72 hours. The first hearing is scheduled for the 11th, with a vote expected in mid-September.
