Can I use the parking lot of a county police station to lawfully buy or sell items to or from a stranger (such as through Craigslist or other online forum)?

Yes. Both county police stations and parking lots are open to the public 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and can be used to conduct these lawful transactions. It should be noted that the department does not assume responsibility over the sale of these items and cannot guarantee a crime will not occur, even if the transaction occurs in the parking lot of one of our facilities. This is only suggested as a deterrent towards those who may be intending to commit a crime. If a crime does occur, please report the matter promptly to police.
