Park in driveway? Cart in lanai?
 
Any rules against parking a car in your own driveway or on the street in front of your house?
Also can you park your cart in your lanai if lanai is big nuff?
Thanks

Yes, lots of rules! But, most are ignored!:popcorn:

If you really want to know them? Go to VCDD community standards (Google) Click on you're district and read the pages and charts, be warned might take you afternoon or two.:a040:

I'm sure they control via rules that which you clean your belly button with. I was looking for "generally speaking" is it OK to do the above two parking things.

Parking your own car, in your own driveway ?

rhart 07-30-2018 12:01 PM

Yes and your own cart in your own lanai

Villa rules are different, but in all other cases, driveway and street parking is permitted. There are exceptions for commercial vehicle, and RV's, boats, etc. though.

Why not get the specific info? It is available.

I live in a courtyard villa. The rule is that the homeowner cannot park a car on the street or in the overflow parking area. However, guests are allowed to park cars on the street and in the overflow area. The homeowner must park in the driveway or garage.

I think a lot of people never read the HOA rules before they buy, good that you are checking out the rules ahead of time. Be sure to read the HOA rules for the section you finaly buy in.

If you live in a courtyard villa, the homeowner cannot park on the street or in the overflow area, but guests can park there. At least, this is the rule in the villages of Pine Ridge and Pine Hills.

If only the Real Estate agents would supply new homeowners with the "Deed Restrictions" specific to there lot, they do not, such a shame.

rhart 07-30-2018 12:56 PM

Thanks retired. I knew someone would answer the simple question. :)
Communities either allow or prohibit overnight parking on your own driveway.
The lanai question I'm sure is a little more convoluted.

Do not put car or cart up on cement blocks and do not park it next to this bend over lady yard art;

I LOVE deed restrictions.

Out of respect I would not leave a car up on blocks for more than a few months at a time. Would a mid sized gnome change the dynamics of the situation?
