Regulations in Florida

Florida parking regulations:

  • Atlantic Beach forbids camping, sleeping, and lodging in public spaces.[1] The law appears to be aimed at the traditionally homeless but may affect nomads.
  • in Boca Grande on Gasparilla Island, "RV parking is now allowed only on the east side of E. Railroad Avenue between 5th and 7th Streets... [and] is not allowed anywhere else on the island."[2]
  • in Sarasota " No overnight RV Parking is permitted, and vehicles need to fit within the allowed parking spaces." The city website goes on to say: "Please Note: The city works very hard at protecting public access to parking spaces through. City of Sarasota Parking Code 33-118 prohibits a parker from relocating from one space to another on that block or any other block within one block radius in any direction for the ordinal parking space, including both sides of the relevant streets…" [3]
  • In St. Petersburg, vans modified for camping "are classified as domestic equipment. Modifications can include generators, water tanks, shade overhangs and solar panels. Modified vehicles can now only park on the right of way for four hours during weekdays."[4]
