Full Breakdown
Cedar Park Code § 17.04.010 sets a citywide overnight curfew: no vehicle rated over 1.5 tons or longer than 21 feet, and no trailer, recreational vehicle, or abandoned vehicle, may sit parked on a public roadway or right-of-way anywhere in the City between 10:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. The only exceptions are emergency repair or servicing, or a valid recreational-vehicle or roll-off-dumpster permit issued under § 17.04.013, which runs up to seven consecutive days and no more than fifteen days per calendar year. Unlike § 17.04.005's residential-subdivision-only, all-hours ban, this section reaches every public street in the City but only during nighttime hours.
Violations & Fines
Violating the overnight parking curfew is a Class C misdemeanor under § 17.04.018; the City may also tow the vehicle under § 17.04.014, with removal and storage fees billed to the owner.
