Brevard County has no leaf blower-specific ordinance. General noise rules in Code Ch. 46 apply. Year-round landscaping season along the Space Coast means daily blower use by crews serving Melbourne, Palm Bay, and beachside HOAs.
Brevard County Code Chapter 46 (Noise) does not single out leaf blowers. Gas and electric blowers are permitted during daytime hours under the general 7 AM to 10 PM residential limits. HOAs in Viera, Suntree, and Indialantic commonly restrict blower use to weekdays 7 AM to 6 PM and Saturdays 9 AM to 5 PM. Commercial crews dominate year-round due to oak leaf drop, palm frond litter, and sand accumulation on beachside properties. No state preemption on blower regulation exists in Florida.
Blower operation before 7 AM or after 10 PM may be cited under Ch. 46 noise provisions: $100 first offense, up to $500 repeat. HOA fines per CC&Rs separate.
