Mount Pleasant, SC Parking Rules: Overnight Parking (2026)

373 attaches four use-specific conditions to it. Division (A) is the overnight restriction relevant here: tractor trailers and truck cabs cannot park overnight at such a facility, a standard aimed at keeping large commercial rigs from using town parking lots as overnight staging areas. The remaining divisions round out the section: a lot in the PI-1 or PI-2 Districts must be open to the general public for free or a nominal fee, or serve an adjacent PI-District use (division (B)); a lot in the ED District must serve an adjacent ED-District use (division (C)); surface parking in the SCW-W, SCW-H, and SCW-N Shem Creek waterfront districts is capped at 10% impervious coverage (division (D)); and parking structures are prohibited outright in those same SCW waterfront districts (division (E)).

Because this use condition attaches to the 'parking lot or structure' principal use itself, it governs standalone commercial parking facilities the Planning, Land Use and Neighborhoods Department reviews through the zoning permit process, rather than a blanket overnight parking ban on every town street; the traffic code's parking chapter covers stopping, standing, and specific prohibited locations but sets no separate overnight curfew for ordinary residential street parking.
