Unincorporated Adams County has no short-term-rental-specific parking requirement. Guest parking is governed by the general Development Standards and Regulations (zoning off-street parking) and county right-of-way rules. Cities within the county may set their own STR parking minimums.
Adams County does not regulate short-term rental guest parking as a distinct use because it has no STR ordinance. Instead, parking on unincorporated residential property is governed by the county's Development Standards and Regulations, which set off-street parking and vehicle-storage standards for the applicable zone district, and by county right-of-way and roadway rules that prohibit obstruction or unsafe on-street parking. There is no STR-specific 'one space per bedroom' county mandate. Property owners must still keep vehicles off the public right-of-way where prohibited and avoid parking that blocks access or sight lines. Municipalities within Adams County commonly impose STR-specific parking minimums, so confirm rules with the city if applicable.
No STR parking penalty exists at the county level. Vehicles obstructing the right-of-way or violating zoning off-street parking standards can be cited under the applicable county code.
