Anaheim STR operators must provide adequate parking for guests and comply with residential parking regulations. Guest parking should not overflow into the neighborhood. Operators must include parking details in house rules.
AMC Chapter 4.05 requires STR operators to address parking in their operating plan. Guests must be provided with parking information and house rules specifying where to park. Adequate on-site parking should be available to prevent overflow into the neighborhood. Street parking near STRs is subject to all standard Anaheim parking regulations including the 72-hour limit and Residential Permit Parking zones. In neighborhoods near Disneyland Resort, STR guest parking competes with visitor overflow making adequate on-site parking particularly important. Garages must remain available for vehicle parking and may not be converted to additional rental space without permits. RV or oversized vehicle parking by guests must comply with standard regulations — paved surfaces only, no lawn parking.
Guest parking creating nuisance: code enforcement complaint. Garage conversion without permit: zoning violation. Blocking neighbors' access: parking citation.
