Lane County, OR Parking Rules: Commercial & Oversized Vehicles (2026)

250(1)(b) sets the baseline: off-street residential parking is limited to passenger cars, vans and pickups of not more than one ton manufacturer's capacity rating or comparable size, unless the zoning district allows otherwise. That size cap does not apply to vehicles used in a Rural Home Occupation, an exception built into the same subsection for county-approved home businesses. " That wording draws a line between a delivery truck or contractor's rig present for the length of a job and a semi-tractor, box truck or heavy commercial rig kept on-site as a matter of course, which the code does not authorize as ordinary residential parking.

015 (Public Works Director, Land Management Division Manager, Planning Director, Building Official, Sheriff, Health and Human Services Director, their designees, or an Enforcement Officer) can investigate, inspect the property, and issue an Order to Comply naming the vehicle, the section violated and a correction deadline. A property owner may request an administrative inspection warrant process be followed if entry is refused, and may contest the citation through the Chapter 5 appeal hearing rather than simply removing the vehicle.
