West Jordan, UT Parking Rules: Commercial & Oversized Vehicles (2026)

Section 13-8-14(B) of the West Jordan City Code addresses vehicles in classes 6 through 13, as defined in section 13-2-3 and detailed in the code's Table B, which covers semitrucks, larger box trucks, and heavy equipment above the classes permitted for ordinary residential parking. The default rule is a prohibition: these vehicles are not allowed to be parked in a residential zone at all, subject to two narrow exceptions. First, the tractor portion of a semitruck may be parked on a residential lot if it is occupied by the driver, provided the tractor stays entirely within the lot's boundaries and does not obstruct the public sidewalk; a full tractor-trailer combination or a tractor parked on the street is not covered by this exception.

Second, classes 6 through 13 vehicles and construction equipment may be parked in a residential zone during periods of active construction, but that allowance is capped at six months and does not create an open-ended right to store heavy equipment on a residential lot once a project stalls or wraps up. The section works alongside subsection A, which governs lighter classes 1 through 5 and construction equipment with surface-material and operability standards, and subsection C, which separately regulates watercraft, trailers, campers, recreational vehicles, and motor homes.

Table B assigns each vehicle class a permitted location, wall or fence screening requirement, and, for several classes, a two-vehicle number limit, none of which extend the classes 6 through 13 prohibition into a general parking allowance.
