The Code Compliance Division enforces garage sale regulations as part of general property maintenance.
Section 8-3 of the Coral Springs Code of Ordinances (Chapter 8 — Property Maintenance, Article I — Garage, Commercial, and Residential Sales) establishes the rules for conducting garage sales in the city. Sales are considered a temporary residential activity and are not classified as a home occupation or business. Sales must be conducted on the seller's residential property — typically in the garage, driveway, or front yard. Items for sale must be displayed neatly and not encroach on sidewalks or the public right-of-way. All unsold items must be removed from view at the conclusion of the sale. Signs advertising the sale may only be placed on the property where the sale is held and must be removed at the end of each sale day. The Code Compliance Division monitors compliance with frequency and duration limits. Section 8-5 of the code addresses unused commercial real estate and sales, which is separate from residential garage sale provisions.
Conducting sales in excess of the permitted frequency or duration is a code violation under Section 8-3. Signs placed in rights-of-way or on utility poles may be confiscated and result in a citation under LDC Chapter 18. Violations are cited under Section 1-8.1.
