Short-term rentals in Venice must accommodate all guest vehicles on-site (in driveway/garage); on-street guest parking that violates Ch. 70 - including overnight prohibitions in posted zones - can trigger Code Enforcement action against the BTR holder.
Most Venice residential zoning districts require 2 off-street parking spaces per dwelling unit, and STR operators are expected to communicate that limit to guests. On-street parking that blocks driveways, creates safety hazards, or violates posted time limits results in citations issued to the vehicle and complaints logged against the rental property. BTR holders are responsible for ensuring guests follow parking rules.
Parking citations follow Ch. 70 fee schedule ($25-$100 typical). Pattern violations are logged for BTR review under Sec. 1-14 and can support non-renewal.
