Summary

Broomfield Municipal Code § 5-39-070(B) caps short term rental guest vehicles at four total, on or near the property, with no more than two of those parked on the street at any one time, and breaking the cap can trigger a show cause hearing or license revocation.

(B)Vehicles: No more than four vehicles associated with short term renters shall be parked at any one time on or nearby the property with a maximum of two vehicles parked in the street. ... Failure to comply with these limitations may result in a show cause hearing or revocation of the short term rental license.

Full Breakdown

Section 5-39-070(B) sets a hard vehicle cap for every licensed short term rental: no more than four vehicles associated with short term renters may be parked at any one time on or nearby the property, and of those four, a maximum of two may be parked in the street rather than on the property's own driveway or off-street parking. The cap sits alongside the license application requirement in section 5-39-030(F), which already obligates the owner to disclose the number of off-street parking spaces available at the property when applying for or renewing the license, so the city can compare the disclosed off-street capacity against the four-vehicle, two-on-street ceiling at licensing.

The parking limitation is one of five listed in section 5-39-070 alongside occupancy, noise, general code compliance and residential character, and the section closes with the same enforcement warning that applies to all five: failure to comply with any of these limitations may result in a show cause hearing or revocation of the short term rental license. Section 5-39-080 places responsibility for notifying occupants of the parking limit, and for any violation of it, on the property owner, meaning an owner who leaves the vehicle count unmonitored bears the compliance risk even though the guests are the ones parking the cars.

Overflow parking beyond the two-vehicle street allowance can also separately implicate the city's residential parking permit rules in chapter 10-06, since the short term rental limit does not override any generally applicable street parking restriction elsewhere in Title 10.

Violations & Fines

Parking more than four short term rental vehicles on or near the property, or more than two in the street at once, violates section 5-39-070(B) and can bring a show cause hearing under section 5-39-090 and license revocation under section 5-39-100, with the property owner held responsible under section 5-39-080 regardless of which guest parked the vehicle.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many cars can short term rental guests park in Broomfield?
Section 5-39-070(B) caps it at four vehicles associated with the short term rental parked on or near the property at any one time, and no more than two of those four may sit in the street rather than on the property itself.
Does the owner have to disclose parking when applying for the license?
Yes. Section 5-39-030(F) requires the short term rental license application to state the number of off-street parking spaces at the property, which the city can weigh against the four-vehicle, two-on-street cap in § 5-39-070(B) before issuing the license.
Who is liable if short term rental guests overpark the street?
The property owner. Section 5-39-080 makes the owner responsible for notifying occupants of the parking limitation and for any violation of it, and repeated overparking can lead to a show cause hearing under § 5-39-090 and license revocation under § 5-39-100.
