Full Breakdown
Lewisville's zoning ordinance (Ch. 18) restricts the parking and storage of commercial vehicles in residential zoning districts. Vehicles exceeding one-ton manufacturer rated capacity, semi-tractors, detached semi-trailers, heavy equipment, and vehicles bearing commercial advertising or signage beyond a certain size are generally prohibited from being parked or stored on residential property or adjacent streets. Light commercial vehicles (pickups, vans, and similar vehicles up to one ton) used for daily commuting to and from work are permitted in residential driveways. Vehicles with mounted equipment such as utility bodies, ladder racks, or tool boxes may be parked in residential driveways if they do not exceed the size threshold. The restriction targets the overnight or long-term storage of fleet vehicles, construction equipment, and heavy trucks in neighborhoods. Lewisville is home to several industrial parks along I-35E and SH-121 where commercial vehicle storage is permitted.
