Davie, FL Parking Rules: Driveway Rules (2026)

Driveways and off-street parking in the Town of Davie are governed by the Town's own Land Development Code (Chapter 12), particularly its parking provisions in Article VII, rather than by county or state rules. The Code requires off-street parking to be provided and maintained for residential and nonresidential uses, with the number of required spaces set by use and district. In the Town's special zoning districts, the Code specifies acceptable parking and driveway surfaces; for example, in the Eastside Neighborhood Special Zoning District, Section 12-394.5(I) requires single-family lots to provide two spaces per dwelling and limits parking areas to specified surfaces only - turf block, compacted grass, brick, pavers, asphalt, or concrete - and restricts circular drives. While these surface and layout standards are most explicitly stated for the special districts, they illustrate the Town's general approach of requiring defined, durable parking surfaces. Importantly for everyday use, Town Code Section 24-43.1 (Restrictions on vehicle parking) provides that utility trailers, boats, and RVs shall not be parked or stored within a driveway, front yard, sidewalk, or swale area and must be relocated to the side or rear yard; combined with Section 12-33(G), this limits what may sit on a residential driveway. Residents planning a new or widened driveway, a curb cut, or a surface change should confirm permit and material requirements with the Town's Planning and Zoning Division before starting work.
