Summary

Limited loading and unloading is allowed only if there is no usable off-street space.
Vehicles with a gross weight of sixteen thousand (16,000) pounds or more, any semitractor or semitrailer, or any vehicles carrying explosives, corrosives or flammable substances, are declared restricted vehicles. No such vehicle shall be loaded, unloaded or serviced upon any street or part of any street within a residential zone if there is usable off street loading, unloading or servicing space available. Except for such limited purposes described in this subsection, restricted vehicles shall not be parked for any period of time on any street or public right of way within a residential zone in Lehi City. Vehicles which normally carry explosive, corrosive or flammable substances, even though empty at the time, shall not be parked for any period of time anywhere within a residential zone in the city.
Full Breakdown
City Code section 7-1-2.A designates 'restricted vehicles' as any vehicle with a gross weight of sixteen thousand (16,000) pounds or more, any semitractor or semitrailer, or any vehicle carrying explosives, corrosives or flammable substances. Those vehicles cannot be loaded, unloaded or serviced on any street in a residential zone if usable off-street loading, unloading or servicing space is available, and outside that narrow loading exception a restricted vehicle 'shall not be parked for any period of time on any street or public right of way within a residential zone in Lehi City.' The ban is stricter for vehicles that normally carry explosive, corrosive or flammable substances: those cannot be parked in a residential zone at all, even briefly and even empty, because the section specifies they 'shall not be parked for any period of time anywhere within a residential zone.'
Section 7-1-2.C carves out several practical exceptions: school and public transportation buses loading or unloading passengers, restricted vehicles delivering household furniture or accessories, city or public-utility vehicles temporarily parked for repairs, and vehicles delivering building supplies or used by contractors working on residential property. Violating the restriction is an infraction punishable by a fine under section 7-1-2.D, and the city may instead impose a civil penalty for a nonmoving violation under its civil fines schedule.
Violations & Fines
Parking a 16,000-pound-plus vehicle, semitractor, semitrailer or a vehicle carrying explosives, corrosives or flammables in a Lehi residential zone outside the narrow loading and delivery exceptions is an infraction under section 7-1-2.D, punishable by a fine or an alternative civil penalty under the city's civil fines schedule.
