Fayetteville issues no more than three yard sale permits to one residence or household in a calendar year, and each permit covers no more than two consecutive days. A fourth permit requires proof of a change in property ownership.
Chapter 15, Section 15-34 of the Code of Ordinances governs yard sales, a term the code defines to cover garage, lawn, attic, porch, room, backyard, patio, flea market, and rummage sales alike. The permit conditions subsection caps one residence or family household at three permits per calendar year, each good for two consecutive days. When members of more than one residence join on a single permit, that permit counts against every participating residence. A fourth sale opens up in the same year on satisfactory proof of a bona fide change in ownership of the real property. Inclement weather earns a free replacement permit within 30 days.
Misdemeanor under Section 15-34. Every article sold and every day of a noncompliant sale counts as a separate offense. A conviction blocks new yard sale permits for two years.
