These county ordinances apply to unincorporated areas of Cameron County. Incorporated cities within the county may have their own rules that take precedence over county-level regulations.

Registered guests may use boat ramp at any time. Boat and Jet Ski's users, time-limit is 5 minutes to unload and load at Ramp, no fishing from boat launch.

Full Breakdown

Designated loading zones, delivery-vehicle time limits, and curbside loading come from city traffic ordinances; unincorporated Cameron County has no zoning or street loading-zone code. The county does impose a loading time limit in its parks: at the boat ramps, boat and jet-ski users are limited to five minutes to unload and load, and fishing from the boat launch is prohibited. Registered guests may use the ramp at any time. This is the county's one enforceable loading rule.

Violations & Fines
