Bell County has no oversized-vehicle parking ordinance in unincorporated areas. Killeen bars vehicles over one ton within 600 feet of residential property and confines two-ton-plus vehicles to designated arterial routes.
Texas counties cannot zone, so unincorporated Bell County does not limit parking of large trucks, buses, or trailers by size. Killeen does: Code § 28-132(b) makes it unlawful to park any vehicle over one ton—including truck tractors—within 600 feet of residential property, and § 28-132(c) bars them in listed residential districts. Oversized through-traffic is limited by § 28-105, which keeps vehicles rated two tons or more on designated major/minor arterials except for legitimate local pickup or delivery. Trailers over 16 feet and multiple trailers on residential lots are also restricted (§ 28-132(e)). Temple sets its own standards.
Killeen oversized-vehicle violations are prosecuted under the city general penalty (Code § 1-8); off-route two-ton vehicles violate § 28-105 and are subject to citation.
