On-street parking in Hernando County follows county rules and Florida traffic law, which bars parking within 15 feet of a fire hydrant and on sidewalks or crosswalks. Most of the county is unincorporated, so county rules dominate.
Florida's uniform traffic law, Fla. Stat. 316.1945, prohibits stopping, standing, or parking within 15 feet of a fire hydrant, on a sidewalk, or on a crosswalk statewide, and Hernando County enforces it. The county also bars blocking travel lanes, mailboxes, and driveways. With Weeki Wachee dissolved and Brooksville the only incorporated city, nearly all Hernando streets — Spring Hill, Hernando Beach, Ridge Manor — are county-governed rather than a patchwork of city rules. Spring Hill's grid of residential streets has no meters, but posted limits and deed restrictions can still apply.
Parking too close to a hydrant, or blocking a sidewalk, crosswalk, mailbox, or driveway, brings a county or municipal citation and possible towing at the owner's expense.
