Moorpark, CA Short-Term Rentals: Parking Rules (2026)

Moorpark prohibits residential short-term rentals (fewer than 30 consecutive days) throughout the City, and homes may be rented only for periods greater than 30 days. Because no STR permit or registration is issued, the City does not impose STR-tailored parking requirements (such as one designated off-street space per bedroom or guest-only driveway parking). Standard residential parking rules apply to dwellings used as long-term rentals: under MMC 17.32.100, motor vehicles parked in any required front, rear, or side setback must be fully operative, licensed, and registered, and may only be parked on the required driveway or on a paved area adjacent to it. On-street parking is governed by California Vehicle Code section 22651 (72-hour limit) and Moorpark's Article III (Stopping, Standing and Parking). RV/oversized-vehicle storage on residentially zoned lots is allowed only when the vehicle is on a paved surface in the side yard adjacent to the dwelling or garage and does not extend past the front line of the dwelling or garage; storage means parking without moving for more than 72 hours. Garage conversions to habitable space generally require equivalent covered parking replacement under Chapter 17.32, except where state ADU law applies. Suspected STR activity should be reported to Code Compliance.
