Tarpon Springs Code Chapter 18, Article II regulates overnight parking on public streets, with restrictions on commercial vehicles, oversized trailers, and unattended vehicles in city rights-of-way.
Chapter 18, Article II of the Tarpon Springs Code addresses parking, stopping, and standing of vehicles, including overnight scenarios. While the city does not impose a blanket city-wide overnight ban on all passenger vehicles, posted signs in specific areas (such as municipal lots and waterfront districts) prohibit overnight parking. Sleeping or camping in vehicles on public streets is prohibited. Section 14-15 of Chapter 14 (Public Safety) and Section 12-20 (vehicles dismantled or unfit) further restrict storage of vehicles in the right-of-way. The 2026 zoning amendment prohibits trailers wider than 96 inches and detached trailers of any length from residential rights-of-way overnight.
Tarpon Springs Police issue parking citations and may tow vehicles left unattended overnight in posted-restricted areas. Repeat violations escalate through Code Enforcement.
