Plant City requires driveways in residential zones to be paved with concrete, asphalt, or pavers. Gravel driveways allowed only in rural residential and agricultural districts. Driveway aprons connecting to city streets require a right-of-way permit.
Plant City Land Development Code requires all-weather surfacing for residential driveways in urban zones. Maximum driveway width at the property line generally 24 feet for single-family. Shared driveways require a recorded easement. Culverts under driveways crossing swales must meet Public Works sizing standards (typically 15-18 inch HDPE pipe). Parking on unpaved surfaces (grass, dirt) in urban residential zones violates code.
Unpaved driveway in urban zone: 100 dollar citation plus correction order. ROW work without permit: 250 dollar fine plus restoration costs.
