On public county and state roads in Columbia County, Georgia's Uniform Rules of the Road apply: no parking on a crosswalk, in front of a driveway, or within 15 feet of a fire hydrant. Many subdivisions add HOA rules.
Georgia's Uniform Rules of the Road, O.C.G.A. §40-6-200 et seq., set the baseline for on-street parking in Columbia County. Section 40-6-203 prohibits stopping, standing, or parking on a crosswalk, in front of a driveway, and within 15 feet of a fire hydrant on public roads countywide. Many Evans and Martinez subdivisions add HOA rules — and some have private streets — where the association sets and enforces parking, often restricting on-street and overnight parking. The county runs no general residential street-parking permit system. Blocking a hydrant, driveway, or travel lane draws enforcement regardless of who owns the road.
Fire-hydrant, crosswalk, and driveway violations under O.C.G.A. §40-6-203 bring citations from the Columbia County Sheriff's Office and possible towing. On private subdivision streets, HOAs issue their own fines and tow.
