Summary

In unincorporated Bostonia, San Diego County Code 72.126 bans parking commercial vehicles rated 10,000 lbs or more on residential streets, and the Zoning Ordinance limits heavy commercial vehicles on private residential lots.

The parking or standing on streets in residential areas of commercial vehicles having a manufacturer's gross weight rating of 10,000 pounds or more is hereby prohibited.

Full Breakdown

County Code 72.126 states the parking or standing on residential-area streets of commercial vehicles 'having a manufacturer's gross weight rating of 10,000 pounds or more is hereby prohibited,' with exceptions for active loading, service calls, utility work, and commercial/industrial-zoned property. Separately, Zoning Ordinance Sec. 6799 bars parking any commercial vehicle over one-ton capacity on private property in Residential and Agricultural zones except while loading or performing a service in the block, and 'no commercial vehicle shall remain parked in excess of five consecutive hours.' These County rules govern because Bostonia has no city code.

Violations & Fines

Parking a heavy commercial vehicle on a residential street violates County Code 72.126; on-lot violations breach Zoning Sec. 6799 and are enforced as zoning/code violations.
