A Cupertino short-term rental must provide the minimum parking spaces required by its zoning district and designate at least one on-site parking space for the rental. The operator must also keep a license-plate registry of guest vehicles.
Under Cupertino Municipal Code Section 5.08.030, a short-term rental must provide the minimum parking spaces required by the zoning district in which it is located and must designate at least one on-site parking space for use by short-term rental guests. The operator is required to maintain a license-plate registry of all guest vehicles, and the guest manual must inform guests about vehicle parking rules along with noise, quiet hours, and trash collection. Underlying residential parking standards come from Title 19 zoning; single-family homes in Cupertino generally must provide covered and uncovered off-street spaces, so the short-term rental cannot eliminate required residential parking. On-street parking and traffic complaints are handled through the 60-minute local-contact requirement.
Failing to designate the required on-site space, maintain the vehicle registry, or meet zoning parking minimums violates CMC Section 5.08.030 and is enforced under Chapter 1.12, up to registration revocation.
