Parking Rules: Brentwood vs Walnut Creek

Short-term rental guests in Brentwood must follow the same parking rules as any other residents. On-site parking should accommodate guest vehicles to avoid impacts on neighbors. California Vehicle Code 22651(k) allows towing of vehicles parked on public streets for more than 72 consecutive hours, and Brentwood's overnight and oversized vehicle rules apply to guest vehicles.

Walnut Creek STR hosts must provide off-street parking consistent with residential parking requirements — typically 2 covered spaces per single-family home — and may not direct guests to use permit-only or time-restricted street parking. Many neighborhoods near downtown have residential parking permit districts that exclude transient guests.
