Wildwood has ordinances no parking on streets at 10pm. They will ticket.

Neighborhood party, with cars parked on the streets were ticketed @10:05pm.

There is couple houses that park 4 cars in their driveway 24/7.

When I asked what was permissible, such as "Can I park on the street?", he replied, "Sure, that's county property".

I have a pretty wide driveway (corner lot) and I make-do parking it on one side.
But if push came to shove, I guess I'd be parking in the street. Check with Community Watch. Good luck.

PS - I am in unincorporated Sumter County.

The Community Watch person gave you incorrect information. According the the District Property Management office, the streets within the courtyard villa sections are NOT county property. They are private property, owned and maintained by the District. That applies to all courtyard villa sections in The Villages, regardless of what county or city in which they are located.

Some of these rules may be true for villas but I owned a designer home in Gilchrist some years ago and a neighbor parked his car in front of my house every day. I was annoyed because he did not park in front of his own house which was next door. Went to the villages and was told he can park on the street anywhere at any time. His car leaked oil, it was an older car, and I was told that the county could be contacted concerning the leak but that the villages would do nothing.

The roads on which designer houses are located are county roads, so The Villages does not control them. Apparently, the only roads within The Villages that are private roads are the courtyard villa sections.

Did you ever drive through a Villa neighborhood without seeing cars parked on the street?

Note that visitors are allowed to park on the street. But, a homeowner cannot park their own vehicle on the street or in the visitor parking area. This rule only applies to the courtyard villa sections, not other villa sections.

I don’t live in a neighborhood with short term rentals but curious as to why they would have so many cars? Seems like the opposite would be the case.

Lol, it seems you might have a rental on your street! Your neighbor could be renting out their house to short term renters.

I live in the Courtyard Villa neighborhood Haciendas of Mission Hills. In our Deed Restrictions, it states "No owner of a Homesite shall park, store, or keep any vehicle except wholly within his driveway, garage, or other non-visitor parking spaces."

Does that stop some of my neighbors from leaving their cars out on the street 24/7? No.

Have you talked to the owners? Sometimes, that is all it takes to get a problem resolved.

Do you have a link to the Wildwood ordinance or the ordinance number?

Not true. I had an issue where a neighbor who is a renter parked his car out on the street and I virtually could not get out of my driveway without driving over the grass. It was clearly a violation of the deed restrictions. I called community standards and they came out and told them not to do that anymore. There was a little back-and-forth and the community standards person told them the next time somebody was just going to call a towing company and have it removed and you can sort it out with the tow truck driver!! .

I think it's awful when a car is in the driveway at a CYV and another care is parked across the driveway. What is this a used car lot? So unsightly. As for guests park in the guest parking spaces and walk to the CYV you are visiting.
