Scott County cities restrict overnight parking of heavy commercial vehicles and trailers in residential zones. Light work vans and pickups are generally allowed. Semis, dump trucks, and construction equipment must be stored commercially.
Residential zones in Shakopee, Savage, Prior Lake, and the other Scott County cities restrict overnight parking of large commercial vehicles — typically those above a set weight or with multiple axles — along with semi-trailers, dump trucks, and construction equipment. A registered pickup or service van the resident drives to work is generally allowed in a driveway. Temporary parking for an active delivery or service call is permitted. Contractors and landscapers with heavier rigs must store them on commercial property. Minnesota Statutes 169.34 governs statewide on-street parking prohibitions that apply on top of the local rules.
Parking a prohibited commercial vehicle in a residential zone brings municipal citations, commonly $50 to several hundred dollars, escalating for repeat offenses, with towing available for oversized vehicles.
