Shenandoah, TX Parking Rules: Overnight Parking (2026)

Shenandoah Code of Ordinances Sec. , of any vehicle exceeding two axles, or that is greater than 26 feet in length bumper to bumper, or greater than ten feet in height from ground to the highest point of the vehicle body. The rule was added by Ord. No. O-14-033, adopted October 8, 2014, and targets large commercial-type vehicles rather than ordinary passenger cars or pickups, which fall under two axles and well under 26 feet. Because the size thresholds are measured, not by vehicle class name, a large box truck, moving van, or commercial straight truck that meets any one of the three thresholds, axle count, length, or height, is barred from overnight street parking citywide, on any public street inside Shenandoah's corporate limits.

The section sits in Chapter 70's Article III on stopping, standing and parking, alongside the separate curb loading zone and disabled parking rules, and enforcement runs through the Shenandoah Police Department. Sec. 00 per violation, and Sec. 70-94(e) makes each 24-hour period of continued violation a separate, chargeable offense, so a truck left overnight for a week can generate multiple citations rather than one. The rule applies only within the city; Montgomery County has no equivalent overnight parking code for its unincorporated roads, and neighboring The Woodlands, being a township rather than an incorporated city, is governed by its own separate rules, not Shenandoah's Sec. 70-94.
