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

Section 35-63(a)(9) states one specific prohibition: no person may park a recreational vehicle in the right-of-way of any Orange County street or highway for more than seventy-two (72) hours. Time is the only trigger, so an RV parked lawfully becomes a violation simply by staying past the 72-hour mark. A companion clause in subsection (b) provides that no person may move a vehicle not lawfully under his or her control into a prohibited area or away from a curb an unlawful distance, which stops a third party from rolling someone else's vehicle into violation.

Chapter 35 contains no blanket nightly parking ban for other vehicle types, so the 72-hour rule for recreational vehicles is the chapter's main time-based street restriction, enforced through the same parking violation notice process used for other Chapter 35 stopping and standing offenses. The provision has deep roots in the county code, appearing in the 1965 code as § 34-8, and was most recently amended by Ordinance No. 2020-24 in 2020. 1945, which contains similar provisions at the state level.
