No Kern County ordinance imposes parking requirements specifically on short-term rentals. The standard residential off-street parking minimums of Zoning Ordinance Chapter 19.82 apply, including two spaces per single-family dwelling in unincorporated areas.
The Kern County Zoning Ordinance (Title 19, February 2026 edition) contains no short-term rental chapter, so vacation rentals are not assigned a separate parking ratio. Chapter 19.82 establishes minimum off-street parking for all permitted uses. Section 19.82.020(A)(6) requires two spaces per single-family dwelling or mobilehome, and Section 19.82.020(A)(2) requires one space per bedroom for boarding houses, rooming houses, and residential hotels. Under Section 19.82.010, required parking must be provided when a main building is erected or enlarged or when a use is established, changed, or expanded, and the chapter's standards are expressly minimum standards.
Zoning violations are misdemeanors under Section 19.114.060, punishable by a fine up to $1,000 or six months in county jail; each day a violation continues is a separate offense.
