Residents may not paint public curbs or create their own parking restrictions in St. Lucie County. In Port St. Lucie, the city manager is the designated authority for establishing restricted and no-parking areas; only official signs and markings are enforceable.
Curbs and the street right-of-way are public property in St. Lucie County, and no ordinance authorizes a resident to paint a curb red or otherwise mark it to reserve parking. In Port St. Lucie, Section 72.05 designates the city manager as the city's agent for establishing restricted parking areas and no-parking areas, and Section 72.07 governs restricted parking zones set by official signs. Parking limits near hydrants, corners, crosswalks, and fire lanes come from Section 72.01 and Florida law, shown by official signs and markings, not homeowner paint. Unauthorized curb markings are unenforceable, and questions about a needed restriction should go to the city or county public works department.
Only official markings are enforceable; unauthorized painting or marking of the public right-of-way can itself draw a code-compliance notice, and homemade 'no parking' markings carry no legal weight.
