Hamilton County sets no STR parking standard—cities do. Fishers' overnight-lodging code requires one parking space per bed-and-breakfast guest room plus one per employee; whole-home STRs follow the residential district's driveway and parking rules.
Parking for short-term rentals is governed by city zoning, not the county, across Carmel, Fishers, Westfield, and Noblesville. Fishers UDO § 5.4.6 requires one off-street parking space per guest room plus one per employee for a bed-and-breakfast. For dwelling-unit short-term rentals, parking follows the ordinary single-family or residential-district standards (off-street driveway parking, no blocking sidewalks). State law IC 36-1-24 permits reasonable nuisance-based regulation, so cities may enforce on-street and driveway rules, but they may not use parking requirements to effectively prohibit short-term rentals.
On-street and yard-parking violations draw city parking citations and zoning enforcement; chronic complaints can support permit revocation in cities with STR permits.
