Clark County, NV Parking Rules: Driveway Rules (2026)

Clark County Code regulates residential driveways under Title 30 (Unified Development Code) and Title 14. In most residential zones, all vehicle parking areas must be on a paved or improved surface consisting of concrete, asphalt, pavers, or similarly durable material. Parking on dirt, gravel (in some zones), grass, or landscaping in the front yard is a code violation reportable to Code Enforcement. Driveway widths are regulated by zoning district — typical single-family residential driveways cannot exceed a set percentage of the lot frontage (commonly around 40 to 50 percent) to preserve street parking and neighborhood character. Curb cuts and driveway approaches must be permitted through Clark County Public Works, which establishes standards for radius, slope, and accessibility compliance. Driveway expansions or second driveways require permits and must comply with zoning separation and landscape coverage rules. Because unincorporated Clark County includes heavily populated areas like Paradise, Spring Valley, Enterprise, and Sunrise Manor, front-yard parking and unpaved parking are common complaint topics. Clark County Code Enforcement investigates complaints under Title 30 zoning violation procedures. The 2021 AB 356 non-functional turf law does not preclude driveway expansion where zoning allows it.
