Summary
Sedona bans storing any commercial motor vehicle on a residential property outright and caps how many can even park there: two if each is under 6,000 pounds, one if between 6,000 and 14,000 pounds, and none over 14,000 pounds. A separate street-side rule keeps trucks and trailers over 14,000 pounds off residential-zoned street frontages entirely.
Storing commercial motor vehicles on residential properties is prohibited. The parking of commercial motor vehicles on residential properties shall be limited to a maximum of two commercial motor vehicles if both vehicles are less than 6,000 pounds gross weight or a maximum of one commercial motor vehicle if the vehicle is between 6,000 and 14,000 pounds gross weight. Commercial motor vehicles with a gross weight in excess of 14,000 pounds are prohibited from parking on residential properties.

Full Breakdown
160 flatly prohibits storing commercial motor vehicles on residential properties, no matter the weight. It then separately caps parking: up to two commercial motor vehicles may park on a residential property if both weigh under 6,000 pounds gross, but only one may park if it weighs between 6,000 and 14,000 pounds, and any commercial motor vehicle over 14,000 pounds is barred from parking on a residential property altogether. 150, addresses the public street rather than the lot itself: no vehicle, commercial motor vehicle, equipment or trailer of more than 14,000 pounds gross weight may park on the side of any public street that borders or lies within a residential zoning district on the current official zoning map, except briefly while loading or unloading.
Together the two sections close off both the driveway/yard and the curb in front of it to heavy commercial equipment. 110 authorizes impounding a vehicle found in violation.
Violations & Fines
Storing a commercial vehicle on a residential lot, or parking more than the allowed number for its weight class, is a civil traffic violation under SCC 10.20.080, fined per the council's parking fine schedule against the registered owner. Parking a commercial vehicle, equipment or trailer over 14,000 pounds along a residential-zoned street separately violates SCC 10.20.150. Repeat offenders, three or more violations within 24 months, face a misdemeanor habitual-offender charge under SCC 10.20.120 punishable by up to $2,500 and six months in jail.
