Summary
Cheyenne's traffic engineer designates and signs curb loading zones for freight and passengers; vehicles may stop there only to load or unload, and standing is capped at 30 minutes during posted hours.
No person shall stop, stand or park a vehicle for any purpose or length of time other than for the expeditious unloading and delivery or pickup and loading of materials or passengers in any place marked as a curb loading zone during hours when the regulations applicable to such curb loading zone are effective, and then only for a period not to exceed thirty (30) minutes.

Full Breakdown
City Code 10.64.010 lets the city traffic engineer designate freight and passenger curb loading zones, post signs, and state the hours the zone applies. Anyone requesting a zone for their own use must apply for a permit and pay the police department parking administration manager $250 per year (or fraction) per space, up to 24 feet long. Under 10.64.020, a vehicle in a marked curb loading zone may stop only for the expeditious loading or unloading of materials or passengers during the posted hours, and standing there for that purpose is still capped at 30 minutes.
Violations & Fines
Standing in a loading zone past 30 minutes, or without an active loading purpose, is a parking violation subject to citation and civil sanction under the city's parking fine schedule (Ch. 10.16); an unpaid permit can be revoked.
