Any short-term rental guests in Tinley Park must follow the same noise ordinance as all residents, with 10 PM to 7 AM quiet hours. Because STRs are generally not authorized in residential zones, a noise complaint at a listed STR can also trigger a zoning violation review.
Tinley Park's noise ordinance applies uniformly to STR guests and all residents: quiet hours are 10:00 PM to 7:00 AM, amplified sound must not be plainly audible at 50 feet during the day, and no amplified sound may be audible at neighboring property lines at night. Because the Village does not currently authorize STRs as a residential use, a noise complaint at a property listed on Airbnb or VRBO can trigger both a noise citation and a zoning investigation. Owners of properties used for unauthorized transient rental can be held responsible for guest conduct as the property owner. Report violations to Tinley Park Police at (708) 532-9111.
Noise fines of $75 to $750 apply per occurrence. If the property is also found to be operating as an unauthorized STR, additional zoning fines of $250 to $750 per day may apply.
