Bell County does not paint or regulate curb markings. Curb colors are official traffic-control markings set by the city; private curb painting is not authorized, and drivers must obey painted or posted curb restrictions.
Curb markings—such as no-parking, fire-lane, or loading colors—are official traffic-control devices installed by a city's traffic authority, not by a non-zoning county. In unincorporated Bell County there is no curb-marking ordinance; the sheriff enforces state parking prohibitions (for example near fire hydrants and intersections) under the Texas Transportation Code. In Killeen, curb and pavement markings are placed under the traffic engineer's authority in Chapter 28, and Code § 28-126 makes parking contrary to those markings unlawful. Residents may not paint public curbs themselves; requests go to the city. Temple follows the same municipal-marking approach.
Parking against an official Killeen curb marking violates Code § 28-126; unauthorized painting of a public curb can be treated as defacing city property.
