Commercial vehicles on county-maintained roads in unincorporated Multnomah County are subject to Oregon state commercial vehicle regulations (ORS Title 59, ODOT rules). No specific county commercial vehicle parking ordinance for unincorporated residential areas. Each city has its own rules.
Oregon state law (ORS Title 59) and ODOT regulations govern commercial vehicle operations and parking on all Oregon roads including county roads. Oversize/overweight commercial vehicles require ODOT permits for operation on county roads. Multnomah County does not operate a separate commercial vehicle parking enforcement program for unincorporated residential areas; the Multnomah County Sheriff enforces state traffic laws. For incorporated city rules, see Portland, Gresham, and Troutdale entries.
Parking citations $50 to $250. Repeat violations: increased fines. Towing for oversized or illegally stored commercial vehicles.
