Spring Hill is unincorporated Hernando County, and the county does not impose a single fixed height/length cap for residential vehicles; rather, RVs, motor homes, travel trailers, fifth-wheels, campers, boats, and boat trailers must be parked behind the front line of the home (Appendix A, Zoning), and only one commercial vehicle is allowed per residence (resident-owned). Oversized commercial vehicles parked on Spring Hill streets are subject to Florida Statute 316.1945 and Hernando County Code Chapter 20, enforced by the Hernando County Sheriff's Office. Florida HB 1203 (effective 7/1/2024) limits HOA restrictions but does not override the county zoning rule.
Hernando County's oversized-vehicle framework is moderately permissive and reflects the rural-suburban character of Spring Hill and the surrounding Deltona-platted lots. The county does not publish a single fixed dimension cap for residential parking (no 'over 20 feet long' or 'over 9 feet high' blanket residential ban as in Palm Coast or Cape Coral). Instead, two overlays apply. First, Appendix A (Zoning) requires recreational vehicles, motor homes, travel trailers, fifth-wheels, campers, boats, and boat trailers to be parked behind the front line of the principal dwelling - so oversized recreational rigs are not allowed in the front-yard driveway extension or on the front lawn at a Spring Hill residence, regardless of size. Second, the Hernando County Code Compliance commercial-vehicle rule allows one resident-owned commercial vehicle per residence; an oversized commercial vehicle (semi-tractor with or without trailer, dump truck, large box truck, large flatbed trailer, bus) generally exceeds what is compatible with a single-family district and triggers an Appendix A violation even within the one-vehicle allowance, especially if it cannot be parked on an improved surface or fits the lot. On public Spring Hill streets, oversized vehicles are subject to the Florida Uniform Traffic Control Law (FS Chapter 316), including FS 316.1945 prohibitions on parking on sidewalks, in front of driveways, within 15 feet of a fire hydrant, within 20 feet of a crosswalk at an intersection, and within 30 feet of certain traffic-control devices; FS 316.1945(1)(b) also requires vehicles outside business or residence districts to park off the paved roadway when practicable. The Hernando County Sheriff's Office enforces. Spring Hill subdivisions that are deed-restricted commonly impose stricter dimension caps, subject to Florida HB 1203 (effective July 1, 2024) limits on HOA regulation of owners' personal vehicles, work vehicles, boats, and RVs. Hernando County Ordinance 2024-15 separately allows a temporary shelter (which can include certain RVs or trailers) on a residential parcel following a Governor-declared natural emergency, for up to 36 months or until a CO is issued. Report violations to Hernando County Code Compliance at 352-754-4056, option 5, or the Hernando County Sheriff's Office at 352-754-6830 (non-emergency).
Parking an RV, motor home, travel trailer, fifth-wheel, camper, boat, or boat trailer of any size beyond the front line of the principal dwelling at a Spring Hill residence violates Hernando County Appendix A (Zoning) and is enforced by Code Compliance at 352-754-4056, option 5. Parking more than one commercial vehicle at a residence, parking a commercial vehicle the resident does not own, or parking an oversized commercial vehicle incompatible with the single-family zoning district triggers an Appendix A violation. On public streets, oversized vehicles parked on a sidewalk, in front of a driveway, within 15 feet of a hydrant, within 20 feet of a crosswalk at an intersection, or within 30 feet of certain traffic-control devices violate FS 316.1945 and are enforced by the Hernando County Sheriff's Office. Vehicles blocking emergency access or sight distance are subject to immediate tow.
