Converse restricts heavy commercial vehicles from parking overnight in residential zones. Standard work pickups and vans are allowed, but semi-trucks, dump trucks, and large trailers are prohibited.
Converse limits commercial vehicle parking in residential zones through the Zoning Ordinance and Chapter 70 of the Municipal Code. Generally, vehicles with gross vehicle weight ratings above one ton, semi-tractors, trailers over a certain length, dump trucks, and similar heavy equipment cannot be parked overnight on residential streets or in residential driveways. Work trucks, vans, and pickup trucks (typically under 10,000 pounds GVWR) used by the resident for their job are normally permitted. Signage or logos on vehicles do not by themselves make a vehicle prohibited; weight and size are the main triggers. Commercial vehicles can park temporarily for loading and unloading (typically not exceeding a few hours). Violations result in parking citations and potential towing. Commercial and industrial zones allow commercial parking with site plan compliance. Contact Converse Code Enforcement at (210) 658-5356 to confirm vehicle classification and reporting.
