Parking Rules: Camarillo vs Simi Valley

Are there guest parking rules for Camarillo rentals?

Camarillo does not have STR-specific parking rules. General parking regulations under CMC Title 11 apply. Most importantly, check your HOA's CC&Rs as nearly all Camarillo planned communities have strict guest parking provisions limiting visitors to designated spots.

How long can a car park on the street in Camarillo?

Under CMC Title 11, vehicles generally cannot remain parked on public streets for more than 72 consecutive hours. Some areas have additional time restrictions or permit parking requirements.

Can guests park in the driveway or on the lawn?

Driveway parking is generally fine if the vehicle fits without blocking the sidewalk. Parking on lawns or unpaved surfaces in residential zones typically violates zoning standards under CMC Title 19 and most HOA CC&Rs prohibit it.

How many parking spaces are required for a Simi Valley STR?

Generally one off-street space per permitted bedroom. The exact requirement depends on the property's available garage and driveway capacity as shown in the permit application.

Can STR guests park on the street?

Yes, guests may park on the street where permitted, but must comply with all posted restrictions. Guests may not block driveways, sidewalks, or park on lawns.

What if neighbors complain about STR guest parking?

The local contact must address parking complaints promptly. Repeated parking issues count toward the three-complaint threshold that can trigger permit review.
