Largo, FL Public Conduct: Loitering Rules (2026)

Section 17-30 of the Largo Code of Ordinances, titled 'Proper use of facilities,' governs conduct at restrooms, dressing rooms, bathhouses and similar structures on property operated by the city's Recreation, Parks and Arts Department. Subsection (b) states plainly that no person shall loiter in or around any restroom, dressing room or bathhouse. Largo does not carry a general, citywide loitering ordinance in the supplied code; the loitering prohibition that exists is confined to this park-facility context, paired in the same section with a ban on entering an opposite-sex-designated restroom or bathhouse under subsection (a) and a ban on dressing or undressing outside a designated bathhouse under subsection (d).

Section 17-30(e) separately bars remaining on park property outside the officially posted hours of normal operation, and subsection (f) requires anyone to leave when lawfully ordered to do so by a law enforcement officer or department staff. Enforcement of the loitering ban, like the rest of Chapter 17, rests with law enforcement officers, the city manager, the director of Recreation, Parks and Arts, and designated department employees under Section 17-36. A violation is punished under Section 17-38, the chapter's general penalty provision, rather than by any fine specific to loitering.
