Sedona City Code §9.10.010 prohibits sleeping or camping in any public building, alley, sidewalk, public way, or trailhead — including any property owned or managed by federal, state, county, or municipal agencies.
The rule effectively serves as a citywide curfew on overnight occupation of public space. Camping or sleeping in vehicles, tents, or makeshift shelters is prohibited regardless of time of day. Enforcement requires either prior warning by a police officer or conspicuous posting of the rule. Visitors planning to spend time in Sedona should book lodging — no free overnight parking exists in town.
Class 1 misdemeanor under §9.10.010, with fines up to $2,500 and/or up to 6 months in jail.
