The "Green Book" pertains to building requirements for developers, including street/road dimensions, etc.
So, given this Ordinance, unless Sumter County has approved parking for an area/street, I'd say parking is not allowed on the street and it would be up to the County Deputy Sheriffs to enforce parking, should they so desire. Personally, I don't like taking the risk of being towed, so I wouldn't park on the street. You never know when a neighbor might decide to call about it or when a Deputy Sheriff should decide to act upon it.

I question that because if you go here:

I think You can read all of the Sumter County Ordinances, and if you search for Parking... it will take you to Article 2
ARTICLE II. STOPPING, STANDING AND PARKING*
and I do not see anywhere in there where you cannot park on the street; in fact it lists the circumstances where you cannot park and in fact tells you how you can legally park by being within 12 inches of the curb.
"Except as otherwise provided in this division, every vehicle stopped or parked upon a two-way street or highway shall be so stopped or parked with the right-hand wheels parallel to and within twelve (12) inches of the right-hand curb or edge of the street or highway."
Please correct me if I am wrong.
Thanks. JJ
