Coral Gables’ newly amended truck-parking ordinance will be enforced starting Saturday, Dec. 1, according to the city.

By a 56.81% to 43.19% margin, city voters on Nov. 6 changed the decades-old ordinance that prohibited pickups from being parked overnight in the city’s residential areas.

The amended Zoning Code allows one non-commercial pickup truck to be parked outside of a residence, if the truck bed is empty, if the vehicle has not been modified, has no commercial markings or equipment, and has no more than four wheels.

Estimates place the number of pickup trucks in Coral Gables at about 500.
