Marion, OH Parking Rules: Commercial & Oversized Vehicles (2026)

Section 351.15 is Marion's heavy-vehicle rule for neighborhoods. The covered vehicles are listed by type: school bus, commercial tractor, agricultural tractor, truck of more than one ton capacity, bus, trailer, semitrailer, pole trailer and moving van. Only the truck entry carries a weight threshold, one ton capacity; the trailer entries print no size cutoff. The ban reaches two places inside the residential districts of the municipality: on any street, and within ten (10) feet of any street. The window is nighttime, from one-half hour after sunset to one-half hour before sunrise, so the section by its own words does not address daytime parking.

The section does not define 'residential districts' in its own text. The code history shows the section was amended by Ord. 2004-120, passed 11-22-2004. It works alongside other Chapter 351 provisions. Section 351.11(A) bars parking in a way that leaves available less than ten feet of the width of the roadway for free movement of vehicular traffic. Section 351.14 lets the owner of private property that posts a prohibition remove vehicles parked against it. Section 351.13 caps any motor vehicle on the streets at 72 consecutive hours, and § 303.08 lists the circumstances in which police can remove and impound a vehicle. Enforcement is by the Marion Police.
