Yolo County Code section 8-2.1314 bars commercial vehicles from parking in any residential zone in unincorporated Yolo County except for the immediate loading or unloading of goods or people.
Under Title 8 (Land Development and Zoning), Chapter 2, Article 13, section 8-2.1314 of the Yolo County Code, commercial vehicle parking is tightly restricted on residential property in any residential zone within the unincorporated County. The section prohibits parking 'any commercial vehicle' in a residential zone except for the 'immediate loading or unloading of goods or people.' The provision applies regardless of whether the vehicle belongs to a resident, contractor, or visitor. Loading or unloading is intended to be brief, not a means of long-term commercial vehicle storage. The section works alongside section 8-2.1304 (General parking provisions), which prohibits using required off-street parking areas for 'the sale, lease, display, repair, or storage of vehicles, trailers, boats, campers, mobile homes, merchandise, or equipment.' Off-street commercial vehicle parking on commercially zoned lots is governed by section 8-2.602 (Commercial Zones) and Table 8-2.1306 (Number of parking spaces required).
A violation of section 8-2.1314 is an infraction under Cal. Gov. Code section 25132. Four or more violations within twelve months by the same person become a misdemeanor. Enforcement is handled by Yolo County Code Enforcement (Community Services Department, Planning Division).
