Brevard County requires vehicles to park on approved surfaces in residential areas. Parking on grass, swales, or unpaved areas is a common code violation. RVs parked in the front yard must be on the driveway. Improperly stored vehicles are among the most frequent code complaints.
Brevard County code typically requires vehicles to be parked on improved surfaces (concrete, asphalt, pavers). Front yard parking on grass or dirt is prohibited. Inoperable vehicles may not be stored in driveways. Driveway widening or additions require permits and must meet zoning setbacks. Some cities limit the percentage of front yard that can be paved. Permeable pavers may be encouraged for stormwater management in Florida’s high-rainfall environment.
Parking on unapproved surface: code compliance notice. Fines after correction period. Inoperable vehicles: removal order.
