Full Breakdown

Coconino County's Zoning Ordinance restricts where large trucks can sit on residential property throughout the unincorporated county. E, governing the Single Family Residential Zones, states that Commercial Vehicles exceeding 26,000 pounds Gross Vehicle Weight, along with associated Commercial Equipment such as semi-tractors, semi-trailers, dump trucks, and equipment trailers, may not be parked, stored, or serviced in any residential zone. A, though that section adds an exemption: vehicles used for Exempt Agricultural purposes are excused if the owner holds a Certificate of Agricultural Exemption for the parcel.

D: overnight parking of Commercial Vehicles and Commercial Equipment, expressly naming semi-tractors, semi-trailers, dump trucks, equipment trailers, and backhoes, is prohibited outright, with no agricultural carve-out. All three provisions sit inside each zone's Performance Standards subsection alongside ordinary passenger-vehicle parking rules, which separately bar using required front and street-side setbacks for storing any vehicle or accessory. 3 allows the county to revoke or halt work under any permit issued in conflict with these standards.

Violations & Fines

A resident who parks, stores, or services a Commercial Vehicle over 26,000 pounds GVW, or Commercial Equipment like a dump truck or equipment trailer, on a residential lot violates Section 2.3.D.1.E or 2.2.E.7.A. Because Section 1.6.A.1 classifies any zoning violation as a Nuisance Per Se, the Community Development Department can order abatement, and Section 1.6.A.3 permits revoking or halting work under any conflicting permit. Manufactured Home Park residents face the stricter overnight ban under Section 2.6.E.1.D with no agricultural exemption available.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I park my semi-truck at my house in Coconino County?
No. Zoning Ordinance Section 2.3.D.1.E bars parking, storing, or servicing any Commercial Vehicle over 26,000 pounds Gross Vehicle Weight, including semi-tractors and dump trucks, in any residential zone. The same 26,000-pound threshold applies in the General, Agricultural Residential, and Rural Residential zones under Section 2.2.E.7.A, unless the vehicle is exempt agricultural equipment on a parcel holding a Certificate of Agricultural Exemption.
Does the ban cover Manufactured Home Parks too?
Yes, and more strictly. Section 2.6.E.1.D prohibits overnight parking of any Commercial Vehicle or Commercial Equipment, including semi-tractors, semi-trailers, dump trucks, equipment trailers, and backhoes, in the Manufactured Home Park Zone, with no agricultural exemption carved out for that zone.
What happens if I get cited?
Under Section 1.6.A.1, any violation of the zoning ordinance's standards, including the commercial vehicle rule, is a Nuisance Per Se, letting the Community Development Department pursue abatement. Section 1.6.A.3 also lets the county revoke or stop work on any permit issued in conflict with the ordinance's provisions.
Are farm trucks exempt from the parking ban?
Yes, in the general, agricultural residential, and rural residential zones. Section 2.2.E.7.A exempts vehicles used for Exempt Agricultural purposes stored or parked on a parcel for which the owner holds a Certificate of Agricultural Exemption from the 26,000-pound Commercial Vehicle parking restriction.
