Prince George's County, MD Short-Term Rentals: Short-Term Rental Parking Rules (2026)

Sec. 01(e) lists everything a short-term rental applicant must attest to before DPIE will issue the annual license, and the parking rule sits alongside a dozen other conditions in the same subsection: at least $1,000,000 in liability insurance (a platform's coverage can substitute if the Department approves it), a working smoke detector and carbon monoxide detector in every bedroom and habitable floor, serviced fire extinguishers, and a posted floor plan showing exits. Paragraph (9) requires the applicant to attest and ensure that the short-term rental has provided at least one off street parking space for every three overnight guests.

Because the County caps occupancy at eight guests total and three per bedroom under Sec. 03(d)(7), a fully booked rental needs at least two to three off-street spaces on site; DPIE can require documentary evidence of the parking arrangement under Sec. 01(f). The parking attestation is paired with a notification duty: hosts must also tell the immediate neighbors on all four sides, plus any homeowners' or condominium association, that they intend to apply, per Sec. 01(e)(7) and (10). A licensed host who does not maintain the required off-street parking is out of compliance with the license's continuing conditions under Sec.

01(c), which states that failing to continuously maintain all the requirements of the Subtitle throughout the license term is grounds for immediate revocation or denial. Sec. 07(b) reinforces that a license may be suspended or revoked for any County Code violation, and Sec. 07(h) adds a civil fine of not less than $1,000 per violation on top of the license action. A host who disputes a parking-related citation or revocation can appeal to the Administrative Hearing Unit within ten calendar days under Sec. 08(a).
