Columbia County has no countywide overnight street-parking ban or permit program. In the Evans and Martinez subdivisions, overnight parking is instead controlled by HOA covenants, which frequently restrict or prohibit it.
Unlike dense cities, Columbia County does not impose a general overnight on-street parking ban or run a residential permit system. On public county roads the standard prohibitions apply — no blocking hydrants, driveways, or travel lanes — but simply parking overnight is not itself an offense. The practical restrictions come from HOAs: many of the county's planned subdivisions in Evans and Martinez have covenants that bar overnight or on-street parking and expect vehicles in garages and driveways. Because on-street options are limited in these neighborhoods, driveways and garages are the dependable overnight choice.
There is no county overnight-parking fine. HOA covenants, however, impose fines and can tow vehicles left overnight on subdivision streets in violation of the association's rules.
