Stark County sets no commercial-vehicle parking zoning; your township or city does. In Canton, no person may park or store a semi-tractor and/or trailer, or a tow truck, in any residential, CS, B-1 or B-2 district.
Ohio counties do not zone commercial vehicles on residential lots; townships (ORC Ch. 519) and cities do. Canton City Code 1134.05(h) governs the seat: no person shall park or store a semi-tractor and/or trailer in any residential, CS, B-1 or B-2 district. Section 1134.05(g) applies the same prohibition to tow trucks. These keep tractor-trailers and heavy commercial rigs out of neighborhood zoning districts. Massillon, Alliance and each township enforce their own Ch. 519 rules, which commonly restrict semis, box trucks and heavy equipment in residential areas.
Storing a prohibited commercial vehicle in a Canton residential district is a zoning violation abatable after notice; penalties follow Canton 1134.99 and nuisance-abatement procedures. Repeat violations may escalate.
