Rock County has no countywide overnight on-street parking ban. Overnight and winter parking restrictions are set by each city, village, and town. Watch for local snow-emergency and alternate-side rules, especially in Janesville and Beloit from November through March.
There is no single Rock County overnight-parking ordinance covering local streets. Wisconsin gives local authorities the power under Wis. Stat. 349.13 to prohibit or limit parking on the highways they control, and municipalities use that power for overnight and winter bans. Janesville and Beloit both enforce seasonal winter parking rules that restrict or alternate on-street parking overnight to allow snowplowing. If you live in an unincorporated town, check your town board's ordinances; if in a city or village, check that municipal code. On your own driveway, overnight parking is generally unrestricted unless zoning limits it.
Handled by the municipality; overnight or winter-ban violations typically bring a $20 to $50 ticket, and vehicles blocking plows may be towed at the owner's expense.
