No county rule governs parking a work truck or commercial vehicle at a home in unincorporated Cameron County — Texas counties can't zone. Cities set those limits. County parks separately ban commercial activity from camp spaces.
Residential commercial-vehicle parking limits (semis, box trucks, heavy equipment) come from city zoning and parking ordinances; unincorporated Cameron County has no zoning to impose them. Where the county does draw a line is its beach parks: the Park Space Agreement bars using a camp space for any commercial activity, including selling goods or services (ice sales, barber, pet grooming, RV rentals, massage). Buses entering county parks pay a separate $30 per-vehicle entrance fee.
Commercial use of a county camp space breaches the Park Space Agreement and can lead to removal from the park; the Parks Department may refuse space to violators.
