§ 40-54. Parking of vehicles over 15,000 pounds or 22 feet restricted.

(a)

Street parking. No person owning or having control of any truck, trailer, truck power unit, tractor, bus or recreation vehicle or combination of vehicles weighing in excess of 15,000 pounds gross weight, or over 22 feet in length (including accessories, racks, or other physical extensions), or having a height of more than eight feet from the roadway, shall park the same upon any street, avenue, or public way in the town in areas zoned residential or primarily residential in nature. The provisions of this subsection shall not be deemed to prohibit the lawful temporary parking of such equipment upon any street, avenue or public way in the town for the actual loading or unloading of goods, wares or merchandise; providing, however, the loading and unloading, as used in this section, shall be limited to the actual time consumed in such operation. The town board may, however, designate specific truck parking zones.

(b)

Removal. Any vehicle unlawfully parked under this section may be removed from the street by order of a law enforcement officer, and the expense of so moving and storing such vehicle shall be paid by the operator or owner of said vehicle as a forfeiture in addition to the penalties hereafter prescribed.
