Macomb County has no countywide STR parking standard. Parking rules come from township zoning ordinances, which typically require 2 off-street spaces per single-family dwelling. On-street overnight parking and front-yard parking on lawns are restricted by most Macomb townships.
Because Michigan counties have limited zoning authority, parking requirements for short-term rentals in Macomb County are governed entirely at the township/city level. The Macomb Township Zoning Ordinance and similar township codes (Chesterfield, Clinton, Harrison, Ray, Washington, etc.) typically require a minimum of two (2) off-street parking spaces per single-family dwelling, located on an approved hard surface (concrete, asphalt, or paver) within the buildable area, and prohibit parking on grass or in required front-yard setbacks outside of an approved driveway. Many townships also restrict overnight on-street parking and limit RV/trailer parking. STR hosts are expected to provide guest parking on-site; chronic on-street guest parking that creates a nuisance can trigger zoning enforcement.
Township zoning/parking violations: civil infractions, typically $50–$250 per occurrence; repeat or chronic violations can escalate. Vehicles parked on lawns or in violation of overnight rules may be ticketed or towed at owner expense.
