Revere, MA Parking Rules: Driveway Rules (2026)

060, "Drainage, Surfacing, Landscaping," requires that all areas subject to automobile or pedestrian traffic and parking be adequately drained and paved with bituminous concrete or equivalent surfacing, clearly marked, and fitted with wheel guards, railings or bumper guards where needed, then permanently maintained. The same section closes the loophole of an oversized gravel or dirt parking pad by requiring that any area not paved be kept in grass or other landscaping instead, so a homeowner cannot simply widen an unpaved apron to park extra cars.

080, "Storage in front yard," which separately bars using any front yard for the open storage of boats, vehicles, trailers or any other equipment, while still permitting ordinary vehicle parking there in accordance with standards developed by the project review committee, and on file at the city building department. 050: nine feet for one-way and twenty feet for two-way traffic in the RA, RA1, RB, RB1, RC and RC3 districts, rising to twelve and twenty-two feet in NB, GB and CB, and single- and two-family homes citywide are capped at a nine-to-twenty-foot range regardless of district. 050(E).
