Brazoria County does not regulate parking on public streets. Cities do. In Pearland, no vehicle may remain parked on any street for more than 72 continuous hours, or it is treated as abandoned and may be tagged and towed.
County roads in unincorporated Brazoria County have no county parking ordinance; the county's power is limited to abating junked and abandoned vehicles. Inside cities, the municipal traffic code governs street parking. Pearland's Code of Ordinances § 29-18 makes it unlawful to leave a vehicle standing on a street for more than seventy-two hours continuously. Cities may also mark no-parking zones, fire lanes, and time limits under Texas Transportation Code Chapter 545 and their own traffic ordinances.
Pearland vehicles left over 72 hours are cited and may be tagged, impounded, and towed at the owner's expense. Fines are Class C misdemeanor traffic offenses.
