Neighborhoods can set parking rules

Parking restrictions in Stafford may get tighter.

The Stafford County Board of Supervisors this week unanimously voted to allow the leaders of homeowners associations in the county to petition the board as to which types of boats, commercial and recreational vehicles that are allowed to be park on their streets.

Though no neighborhood has filed a petition yet, once they do, a public hearing will be scheduled before the board and then the supervisors will have the final say when it comes to implementing a parking restriction, according to Stafford County Attorney Joseph Howard.

Stafford Sheriff Charles E. Jett said if the Board approves a parking restriction his deputies would enforce it during their regular traffic duties.

The Board chose to allow subdivisions to set their own rules instead of issuing a county-wide policy.
