Full Breakdown
Greene County's zoning regulations make it unlawful to advertise, conduct, carry on, or permit more than two garage, patio, yard, or similar sales on a property within any 12-month period, and no single sale may run longer than two calendar days. This rule sits in the zoning code's special-provisions article and applies only in unincorporated Greene County. Springfield, Republic, Nixa, Willard, Strafford, and Ash Grove enforce their own municipal codes, not this county rule.
Violations & Fines
Holding a third sale in a 12-month span, or running any sale past two calendar days, violates Article IV, Section 26 and is enforceable as a zoning code violation.
