Marana Land Development Code requires vehicles to be parked on improved surfaces (concrete, asphalt, pavers, or approved gravel). Parking on unimproved dirt or landscaped areas in front yards is prohibited. Driveway approaches require a permit for construction within town right-of-way.
Under Marana Town Code and the Land Development Code, vehicles must be parked on improved surfaces in residential areas. Parking on bare dirt, landscaped areas, or unimproved surfaces visible from the street is a code violation. Approved improved surfaces include concrete, asphalt, decorative pavers, and compacted decomposed granite (DG) meeting town standards. New driveway construction or modifications that affect the town right-of-way require a right-of-way use permit from Marana Engineering. Driveways must maintain adequate sight-distance triangles at intersections with public streets. Maximum driveway width at the property line is typically governed by the zoning district, and the Land Development Code sets standards for approach slopes and drainage to prevent stormwater runoff onto public roadways.
Parking on unimproved surfaces: code enforcement notice with opportunity to cure. Unpermitted driveway work in right-of-way: stop-work order and potential fine.
