Full Breakdown
Lewisville requires STR operators to provide adequate off-street parking, typically one space per bedroom rented. Guest vehicles parked on public streets must comply with the citys traffic and parking ordinances, which prohibit blocking sidewalks, driveways, fire hydrants, and fire lanes. Vehicles cannot park on lawns or unpaved surfaces in residential zones per Code Compliance rules. On-street parking in residential neighborhoods may be subject to time limits, and vehicles parked more than 72 hours in one location can be tagged for removal. STR operators should communicate parking instructions to guests before arrival, including garage or driveway availability and any HOA parking restrictions. In the Vista Ridge Mall area and Old Town Lewisville, public parking lots are available but may not be convenient for overnight guests. Complaints about STR guest parking are routed through Code Compliance at (972) 219-3450 or police non-emergency for immediate obstruction issues.
Violations & Fines
Parking citations range from 30 to 200 dollars depending on violation type. Towing at owner expense for fire lane or hydrant violations.
