Full Breakdown

City Code § 47-1 defines a 'commercial vehicle' as a passenger automobile, truck, trailer, apparatus, implement or piece of off-highway construction or maintenance equipment, or combination of vehicles, that exceeds 25 feet in length, six feet eight inches (80 inches) in width, or six feet ten inches (82 inches) in height, and is not typically used for general household transportation; the definition also reaches vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating of 10,100 pounds or more, those designed to carry 16 or more passengers, or those requiring a commercial license to operate.

Section 47-61 bars parking and leaving any commercial vehicle overnight on any public street or public way anywhere in the city, not just in residential areas. Section 47-62 goes further for residential zoning: it is unlawful for any person or owner to leave, park or stand a commercial vehicle within any area zoned residential under chapter 53 at any time, day or night. The civil penalty schedule at § 47-203(e)(1) lists 'commercial vehicle, semi-trailer, pole trailer, construction vehicle or farm equipment on street in residential area' as a Level One violation carrying a $30.00 civil fine.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I park my work truck overnight on a Kyle street?
Not if it qualifies as a 'commercial vehicle,' meaning it's over 25 feet long, 80 inches wide, 82 inches tall, or rated at a gross vehicle weight of 10,100 pounds or more. City Code § 47-61 bars parking and leaving such vehicles overnight on any public street citywide.
Can a commercial vehicle park in a Kyle residential neighborhood at all?
No. Section 47-62 makes it unlawful for any person or owner to leave, park or stand a commercial vehicle within any area zoned residential under chapter 53, at any time, not just overnight. The rule is stricter for residential zones than the general overnight-only ban in § 47-61.
What's the fine for illegally parking a commercial vehicle in Kyle?
It's a $30.00 civil penalty under the Level One schedule in § 47-203(e)(1), which specifically lists a commercial vehicle, semi-trailer, pole trailer, construction vehicle or farm equipment parked on a street in a residential area as a flat-rate violation.
