Springdale, AR Parking Rules: Commercial Vehicle Restrictions (2026)

Springdale's commercial-vehicle parking framework combines state law, the City's traffic code and the zoning ordinance. The Arkansas state baseline at A.C.A. §27-51-1301 through §27-51-1309 (Stopping, Standing, or Parking) prohibits parking within 15 feet of a fire hydrant, 20 feet of a crosswalk at an intersection, 30 feet of a stop sign or traffic-control signal, and on sidewalks, in front of driveways, on bridges, or in tunnels - these statewide minimums govern any commercial truck or trailer in Springdale. Chapter 114 (Traffic and Vehicles) of the Springdale Code of Ordinances layers local rules including signed time limits, signed no-parking and tow-away zones, and the general parking and registration framework on city streets. On the land-use side, the Springdale Zoning Ordinance (Chapter 130) confines truck terminals, heavy-equipment yards, contractor storage and similar commercial-vehicle-intensive uses to the W-1 Warehouse, I-1 Light Industrial, I-2 General Industrial and I-3 Planned Industrial districts under Article 4, with the C-5 Thoroughfare Commercial and C-6 Large Product Retail districts allowing certain vehicle-related uses subject to screening and a 20-ft side and rear setback (200-ft when abutting residential in the C-7 RV-park context). Springdale Neighborhood Services administers complaints about commercial vehicles stored on residential property, and the Springdale Police Department enforces on-street violations. The City does not impose downtown parking meters.
