Rockland town codes generally require STRs to provide off-street parking adequate for guests, commonly one space per bedroom rented. On-street parking is limited in many village centers like Nyack, Piermont, and Suffern, where overnight parking restrictions or permit zones apply.
STR parking in Rockland is regulated by each town and village zoning code, not the county. Clarkstown Code §290-24 requires 2 off-street spaces for single-family homes, and STRs are expected to meet or exceed that. Orangetown Code §43 and Ramapo Ch. 376-94 set similar minimums with additional spaces required when bedroom counts increase. Villages have tighter rules: Nyack (Ch. 300) prohibits overnight on-street parking 3-6 a.m. on many streets and enforces business-district meters; Piermont has permit-only residential zones; Suffern requires driveway use with setback compliance. Rockland County Highway Department governs curb cuts onto county roads. Listings are expected to disclose parking in registration documents under the countywide Rental Housing Unit Registry (Laws of Rockland Ch. 315).
On-street parking tickets typically 35 to 100 dollars; repeat STR parking complaints can trigger registration revocation under the Rockland Rental Housing Unit Registry. Zoning non-compliance (inadequate off-street parking): up to 250 dollars per day of violation under most town codes.
