Brown County has no county-wide STR parking rule. Parking standards are set by the underlying town's zoning ordinance (or county zoning where the town opted in under Wis. Stat. Ch. 91). Most towns require off-street parking and prohibit blocking roadways or fire lanes.
Brown County does not adopt a separate parking standard for short-term rentals at the county level. Wisconsin counties can zone unincorporated towns only where the town has opted into county zoning under Wis. Stat. Ch. 91. In towns that have opted in, Brown County's Planning and Land Services applies the standard residential parking requirements of the underlying zoning district. In towns that retained their own zoning, the town's residential parking standards apply. Across Brown County, on-street guest parking must comply with town parking rules and may not block driveways, fire hydrants, or fire-apparatus access lanes. Confirm parking minimums for your specific property with Brown County Planning at 920-448-6480 or your town clerk.
On-street parking violations are typically town or sheriff citations and are issued per Wisconsin uniform traffic citation amounts. Repeated complaints can be raised in TRH license renewal review by Brown County Public Health.
