Summary

Where Warner Robins has painted public parking spaces along the street, drivers get two hours in the space, not the general 12-hour street limit. Sec. 14-34 caps every marked on-street public space citywide at that two-hour maximum, and the rule applies wherever the city has striped a space, not just downtown.

Sec. 14-34. - On-street public parking; limitations. All on-street public parking, where provided by the city and delineated as such by appropriately-painted spaces, shall be limited to a maximum of two (2) hours. (Ord. No. 75-96, § 1, 10-7-96)

Full Breakdown

Sec. 14-34 sets a flat two-hour cap on all on-street public parking that the city has provided and marked off with painted spaces. The limit is separate from, and shorter than, the general 12-hour street parking rule in Sec. 14-31, which covers unmarked street parking citywide; where the city has actually painted a space, the two-hour rule controls instead. The section was adopted by Ord. No. 75-96 in 1996 and has not been amended since. Chapter 14 also carries the state Uniform Rules of the Road by reference (Sec.

§§ 40-6-372 through 40-6-376), which is where the underlying prohibitions on double parking, blocking a driveway, and parking against the flow of traffic actually come from, since Article II of the local chapter does not restate those state rules itself. A related, now-repealed section (former Sec. 14-35) once barred commercial and heavy vehicles from parking on commercially or industrially zoned lots, but Ord. No. 5-13 struck it in 2013, so that restriction no longer applies. No dollar penalty is written into Sec. 14-34 itself, so enforcement falls to the Code's general penalty section.

Violations & Fines

Parking longer than two hours in a marked on-street public space is a violation of the general penalty, Sec. 1-7: a fine up to $1,000, up to 12 months in the city jail, or both, with each day of continued violation treated as a separate offense. Warner Robins police issue the citations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a shorter time limit than 12 hours for street parking in Warner Robins?
Yes. Sec. 14-34 limits any painted, city-provided on-street public parking space to two hours, which is shorter than the general 12-hour limit in Sec. 14-31 that covers ordinary unmarked street parking elsewhere in the city.
Does the two-hour limit apply everywhere in Warner Robins?
It applies specifically to on-street public parking that the city has delineated with painted spaces. If the street segment has no marked space, the general 12-hour limit under Sec. 14-31 applies instead, not the two-hour rule.
What law covers blocking a driveway or parking the wrong way on a Warner Robins street?
That comes from state law, not a separate city section: Sec. 14-1 adopts the Georgia Uniform Rules of the Road, O.C.G.A. §§ 40-6-372 through 40-6-376, as the city's traffic code, so those state stopping-and-standing rules apply on Warner Robins streets.
