Fair Lawn requires off-street parking for residential dwelling units and prohibits overnight on-street parking, which directly affects how short-term rental hosts must accommodate guest vehicles.
The borough's land use and traffic chapters require minimum off-street parking spaces per dwelling unit and ban overnight on-street parking between 2:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. throughout most of Fair Lawn. Parking on lawns, in front yards outside an approved driveway, or blocking sidewalks is prohibited. Short-term rental operators must ensure guests have driveway access and understand the overnight ban; otherwise, guests risk ticketing and towing.
Improper parking can lead to tickets, towing at the owner's expense, and fines for property owners who allow lawn parking or block sidewalks at their rental.
