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

Section 17.88.230(F)(8) governs parking for both vacation rentals and hosted homestays. A minimum of one off-street parking space, either covered or uncovered, must be provided for each approved bedroom offered for rent, and tandem parking is permitted. Off-street parking spaces already required for the one-family residence may be credited toward the short-term rental parking requirement. All required parking spaces must be located on the short-term rental property itself and must comply with all applicable regulations of Shasta County Code Chapter 17.86 (off-street parking). In addition, all guests' trailers must be accommodated on the rental property or off-site at a commercial facility that is legally permitted to accommodate trailer parking. House policies in each rental agreement must establish on-site parking policies and identify designated parking areas that adhere to these requirements, so guests know where they may and may not park. Because the ordinance ties the parking count to approved bedrooms, a larger rental must demonstrate proportionally more on-site parking before a permit is issued.
