Cobb County prohibits parking on county roads between 2 AM and 6 AM under Cobb Code §98-6. Enforcement is complaint-driven and focused on neighborhoods with parking problems. Tickets start at $30.
Cobb County Code §98-6 prohibits parking any vehicle on a public road or right-of-way in unincorporated Cobb between the hours of 2:00 AM and 6:00 AM except for active loading/unloading or emergency. The restriction applies to all county-maintained roads. State routes (US 41/Cobb Parkway, GA 5/Roswell Road, I-285, I-75) follow GDOT rules. Enforcement is primarily complaint-driven by Cobb Police; patrols target neighborhoods known for parking conflicts in East Cobb subdivisions without adequate driveway space. Vehicles parked overnight without authorization may be ticketed and eventually towed at owner expense if repeatedly cited. Marietta, Smyrna, Kennesaw, and Acworth each have their own parking ordinances enforced by city police. Cul-de-sac and narrow subdivision streets are enforcement hotspots. No residential overnight permit program exists at the county level.
Parking ticket under Cobb Code §98-6: typically $30 to $50 base fine. Repeat violations: escalating fines and vehicle may be impounded. Tow and storage fees $150 to $300+ plus $25 to $50 daily storage.
