Kane County's STR ordinance prohibits commercial vehicles, camper trailers, food trucks and portable hot tubs on the property during rental periods in unincorporated areas. On-site parking must accommodate guests within these limits; municipal parking rules apply inside cities.
The 2026 ordinance restricts what may be parked or placed at a licensed STR during a rental: commercial vehicles, camper trailers, food trucks and portable hot tubs are all prohibited. This complements the occupancy cap by preventing overflow parking and party-style equipment that generate neighbor complaints. Guest parking must fit the property within these restrictions. The county has no separate STR-specific curb or street-parking rule; on-street parking follows the general county and township road rules, and municipal STR ordinances govern parking inside incorporated areas.
Parking a prohibited vehicle or placing a banned item during a rental is a licensing violation enforced by administrative fines or license revocation.
