Summary

Revere's Short-Term Rental Ordinance (Revere Code Chapter 8.09, adopted by City Council August 24, 2020) does not impose a STR-specific parking ratio. Off-street parking for the dwelling unit is governed by Section 17.28 of the Revere Zoning Ordinance, which sets parking by district and use, and by Title 10 on-street rules administered by the Office of the Parking Clerk.

not more than 1 additional parking space shall be required for an accessory dwelling unit; and provided further, that no additional parking space shall be required for an accessory dwelling located not more than 0.5 miles from a commuter rail station, subway station, ferry terminal or bus station. For more than 1 accessory dwelling unit, or rental thereof, in a single-family residential zoning district there shall be a special permit for the use of land or structures for an accessory dwelling unit. The executive office of housing and livable communities may issue guidelines or promulgate regulations to administer this paragraph.
