Norfolk County has no county-level STR parking rules. Parking at short-term rentals is governed by the host municipality's general parking ordinances and any specific STR conditions imposed locally.
There is no Norfolk County ordinance governing parking at short-term rentals. STR parking is subject to the same local parking ordinances that apply to all residents — set at the city or town level. Some municipalities in Norfolk County may include parking requirements as conditions of a local STR permit (e.g., requiring off-street parking for guests). Guests must not violate street-parking time limits or residential parking permit zones. Hosts should inform guests of local parking rules.
Municipal parking fines (typically $25–$100 per violation). Parking violations by STR guests may factor into local permit renewal decisions.
