Rock County itself does not regulate everyday street parking on local roads. Wisconsin state law bans parking on the left side of a two-way highway and parking against a posted sign. Time limits, meters, and residential permits are set by your city, village, or town.
Wis. Stat. 346.55 sets baseline rules statewide. On highways under county jurisdiction (county trunk highways), Wis. Stat. 349.13 lets the county restrict, limit the time of, or prohibit parking. But nearly all street parking a resident encounters is on city, village, or town roads, where that local authority sets the rules and posts signs. Rock County does not run on-street meters or residential-permit zones. For downtown time limits, snow routes, and permit blocks, consult Janesville, Beloit, Edgerton, Milton, Evansville, or your town.
Violating a state stopping/parking rule such as Wis. Stat. 346.55(1) carries a forfeiture of not less than $30 nor more than $300; local time-limit tickets are set by ordinance.
