Notice from City of Horseshoe Bay regarding parking. Horseshoe Bay is a unique community and some of our parking ordinances can be quite different from other Cities. Here are a few basic things we are asking you to share with guests:

  • Parking on the street is restricted to the property line boundary of the residence owned or the residence being visited. Property owners are allowed 12 hours every 24 hour period. In town visitors are granted the same. Out of town guests are limited to 72 hours, twice in any 30 day period.
  • Vehicles parked on the street must face in the proper direction, that being with the flow of traffic (Texas State Statute).
  •  Our city streets are narrow by design. 2 vehicles, parked directly across the street from one another and otherwise legally parked, can create an impassable issue for the much wider EMS and Fire Apparatus.
  • Parking on an unimproved/vacant lot or area is not allowed.
  • Parking is not allowed in a front, side, or back yard.
  • Watercraft trailers can only be parked in a driveway, and only for a period of 24 hours. This is allowed once within any 30 day period for the purpose of loading, unloading, cleaning or routine type maintenance.
  • RV’s/motor homes may only be parked in a driveway, and only for a period of 24 hours, twice within any 30 day period, and only for the purpose of loading, unloading, cleaning, or maintenance.

 

There are other restrictions, but these seem to be the most frequent issues that arise when the City is full of visitors and guests. Hopefully by informing your individual family members and visitors, it could make their stay more enjoyable and keep the police officers free to address other matters.

If a question arises about parking, please feel free one of the officers or call the office at 830- 598-2633. We would be glad to answer any question and help find a solution so we can avoid parking issues.
