Teaneck regulates driveway dimensions, surfacing, the number of permitted curb cuts, and prohibits parking on unpaved areas or front yards outside an approved driveway.
Township zoning requires that vehicles parked on residential lots be on a properly constructed and surfaced driveway, not on lawn or landscaped areas. Driveway aprons and curb cuts require permits from the Department of Public Works. Most single-family lots are limited to one curb cut, and driveway widths are capped to preserve on-street parking and stormwater management. Vehicles parked across sidewalks or blocking pedestrian passage are prohibited.
Improper driveway parking can lead to zoning summonses, fines, and orders to restore landscaping or remove unpermitted paving.
