Chandler requires vehicle parking on improved paved surfaces. Parking on dirt, grass, or unimproved areas is prohibited. Driveways must provide proper access and meet minimum dimensional standards.
Chandler's development standards require all vehicle parking on residential property to be on improved surfaces such as concrete or asphalt. Parking on unpaved surfaces is a common code violation. Driveways must be wide enough to accommodate vehicle access without overhanging onto sidewalks or right-of-way. Vehicles cannot be parked in front yard landscaping or on unpaved areas. The city's Neighborhood Preservation division actively enforces driveway and parking surface standards. All parked vehicles must be operational with current registration. Recreational vehicles and trailers have additional parking requirements.
Vehicles on unimproved surfaces or overhanging sidewalks result in code enforcement notices. Repeated violations may lead to fines and mandatory surface improvements.
