Rock County does not set a countywide oversized-vehicle parking limit for residential areas. Whether large RVs, buses, or heavy trailers may be parked on a lot or street is decided by your town, city, or village. County trunk highways carry posted weight and size limits.
Residential parking of oversized vehicles is governed locally in Rock County. In unincorporated towns that adopted county zoning (Wis. Stat. 59.69), the town's zoning ordinance may cap vehicle size or require enclosed storage; the Town of Magnolia, for example, requires large unregistered recreational vehicles and campers to be stored inside an enclosed building. Cities and villages set their own size limits for on-street and driveway parking. Separately, Wisconsin size-and-weight limits (Wis. Stat. Ch. 348) and posted county-highway weight limits govern operating and parking oversized loads on roads, enforced by the sheriff and highway department.
Residential violations are enforced by the town or municipality; road weight-limit violations under Wis. Stat. Ch. 348 carry state forfeitures scaled to the excess weight.
