Where to park while driveway is painted
We are closing on the 4th of Sept. I will be coming down and staying at the house so I can be there to coordinate contractors coming in to do upgrades like Plantation Shutters, Spectrum, Nova water filters, etc...
After most of the upgrades are finished Decorative Concrete of Florida will be coming out the following week to clean, seal and paint our drive, garage Lanai, etc. What do people do with their car while they have their driveway and garage sealed and painted? I understand it will take two days (after it is cleaned.) Do you just park on the street? Do you ask neighbors to let you park in their driveways? Inquiring minds want to know. Thanks, Frank |

Parking on the street is probably your best option so when you need your car it is right there.
If a neighbor is kind enough to let you park in their driveway that would be good also, but it might not work for them if they need to get in and out of their garage. Leaving your car in a parking lot would be a pain because you would need someone to take you to your car. Street parking is probably the best solution and it would only be for two days. |

Here I’ve seen folks park their car in the garage, but put their cart on the lawn. They just use their cart for two days.

And I was going to leave my car at home and rent a cart for a month, but I don't think a cart work be much use in McClure right now, since about the only place I could go would be Finney Grill |

You could park on the street or in a neighbor’s driveway with their permission of course.
Yes there is a neighborhood watch presence in McClure. I doubt you will have an issue out here on the island. Our connections to the mainland are coming. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Why wouldn't you just park on the street? There are no laws that say you can't park on the street.

And also the concern that if I leave it parked in the road for 2 days, neighborhood patrol might've it towed thinking it was abandoned, or call the police to report it. So, I thought asking here first might be a reasonable thing to do. |

But, mostly, I need to be here to discuss things and supervise all the upgrades. Driving 4 or 5 hours a day to commute while that work is done is not appealing. My wife will wait at home until I give her the all clear to come on down and move in with me again! |

2 of my neighbors had a coating applied to their driveways that required 5 days for the cars to be off the finish, they parked on the street, no problems. If you are still concerned, you could probably call community watch and tell them your car will be on the street due to driveway work.

OP, send me a PM if you want to leave your car in our driveway for a couple of days. We are up north so it won't be blocking access to our garage. However, we live north of 466 near Tierra Del Sol, so you will need a ride to/ from your home.

I think the parking in the street will work, and I will just let Community Watch know. |
