Tempe restricts parking of commercial vehicles in residential zones. Large commercial vehicles exceeding certain weight or size thresholds may not be parked overnight on residential streets or in driveways.
Tempe's zoning regulations limit the parking of commercial vehicles in residential neighborhoods. Vehicles over a certain gross vehicle weight rating or displaying commercial advertising beyond a modest size are generally not permitted to park overnight in residential areas. Small commercial vehicles (pickup trucks, vans) used for personal transportation are typically exempt. Enforcement is complaint-driven.
Violations result in code enforcement notices with a compliance period. Continued violation leads to fines. Commercial vehicles may also be cited under street parking regulations if parked beyond time limits.
