Current law imposes a uniform state idling standard on an owner
or operator of a covered vehicle that prohibits the vehicle from idling for more than 5 minutes within any 60-minute period, except in certain situations. Current law also prohibits a local government from enacting a resolution or ordinance concerning the idling of a covered vehicle that is more stringent than the state idling standard.
The bill authorizes a local government to enact a resolution or
ordinance concerning the idling of a covered vehicle that is at least as stringent as, but not less stringent than, the state idling standard.
