Neither Port St. Lucie nor unincorporated St. Lucie County imposes a blanket overnight on-street parking ban. However, Port St. Lucie prohibits parking on any public right-of-way for the purpose of abandonment for more than 24 hours, and swale and posted restrictions still apply.
There is no general citywide or countywide ordinance banning overnight residential street parking in St. Lucie County. A legally parked vehicle may usually remain overnight, subject to Section 72.01's specific prohibitions. Port St. Lucie's Section 72.01(i) makes it unlawful to stand or park a vehicle on any public right-of-way, or on unimproved property, for the principal purpose of abandonment for more than 24 hours, and parking in a residential swale without the owner's consent is prohibited. Inoperative vehicles cannot be stored outside under the property maintenance code. HOA and community covenants frequently impose their own overnight and guest-parking limits, so check them alongside any posted street signs.
A vehicle left on the right-of-way beyond 24 hours as abandoned, or parked contrary to posted signs, may be ticketed and towed at the owner's expense.
