Marion County, FL Parking Rules: Overnight Parking (2026)

There is no Marion County ordinance imposing a blanket prohibition on overnight parking of ordinary passenger vehicles in the driveways or yards of unincorporated residential properties. Overnight occupancy of recreational vehicles and travel trailers as temporary living quarters is regulated by Marion County Land Development Code Section 4.3.6: in residential zoning a self-contained travel trailer or RV may be occupied by a non-commercial guest for no more than 21 days in any 60-day period under a Temporary Use Permit (Sec. 4.3.6.D), and in agricultural zoning for up to 60 days in any 365-day period (Sec. 4.3.6.E). An unoccupied RV or travel trailer must be kept in a stored state in the side or rear yard. Overnight parking on public roads and rights-of-way is controlled by Florida Statutes Section 316.1945 (no parking on the roadway side of a parked vehicle, in front of driveways, within 15 feet of a fire hydrant, or where signs prohibit parking) rather than a county time-of-day curfew. Property owners and HOAs in deed-restricted communities may impose stricter private overnight-parking rules, but those are not county ordinances.
