There is no blanket overnight ban, but Salem prohibits leaving a vehicle in one spot for more than five days, and large vehicles cannot park by homes 9 p.m.-7 a.m. On county roads, no vehicle may stay three consecutive days or longer.
Neither Marion County nor Salem bans ordinary overnight parking outright. Salem Revised Code 102.040(j) makes it unlawful to leave any vehicle in the same location on a street for more than five continuous days. On unincorporated county roads within urban growth boundaries, MCC 10.10.060(A)(3) bars any large vehicle in front of or adjacent to a residence, motel, apartment, or other sleeping accommodation in a residential zone between 9:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. County roads also have a three-consecutive-day maximum under MCC 10.10.150.
County large-vehicle overnight violations carry a fine not to exceed $50 under MCC 10.10.070.
