Sahuarita, AZ Parking Rules: Street Parking Limits (2026)

010(A) sets the baseline method of parking on any Sahuarita street: where curbs or paved roadway edges exist, a vehicle's right-hand wheels must be parallel to and within 18 inches of that curb or edge, which in practice bars parking facing the wrong direction against traffic on a two-way street. 020(A) then lists specific places drivers cannot stop, stand, or park absent a police officer's direction or contrary signage. Two of the most commonly enforced items are blocking or impeding the free movement of traffic in any manner, and blocking an alley or a public or private driveway entrance, though loading or unloading is allowed there if it does not interfere with traffic.

The same subsection separately bars parking on sidewalks, within 20 feet of a crosswalk, within an intersection, within 15 feet of a fire hydrant under a companion section, and within 33 feet of a fire station driveway. 040, and violating a posted restriction is itself a civil traffic violation. 020 are subject to removal and storage at the owner's expense under ARS § 28-872, so an illegally parked car does not just draw a ticket, it can be towed. 020(A) rather than criminal charges, unless a separate section specifies otherwise.
