Denton STR listings must disclose available parking and guest vehicle limits. Guest vehicles must park on-site or in legal street parking spaces. No parking on lawns or in fire lanes. STR advertisements must accurately represent the number of vehicles the property can accommodate. General Denton parking rules under Ch. 18 apply to all guest vehicles.
The Denton STR ordinance requires operators to accurately represent available parking in all advertisements and rental listings. Guest vehicles must use designated on-site parking spaces, driveways, or legal street parking. Parking on lawns, in fire lanes, or blocking sidewalks and driveways is prohibited under general Denton parking rules (Ch. 18, Motor Vehicles and Traffic). In residential neighborhoods near UNT and TWU campuses, permit parking zones may restrict street parking for non-residents, affecting STR guest parking availability. The maximum number of guest vehicles is effectively limited by the number of advertised parking spaces -- operators should not accept more guests than they can accommodate with available parking. Denton does not set a separate parking-per-bedroom ratio for STRs. RV and trailer parking by STR guests on public streets in residential zones is prohibited per existing RV parking rules. Complaints about STR guest parking violations can be filed through Denton 311 or by calling (940) 349-8700.
Parking violations: $25-$100 per occurrence. Blocking access or fire lanes: towing at owner expense.
