Neither Washtenaw County nor Ann Arbor's STR ordinance sets a specific per-guest parking minimum for short-term rentals. Ann Arbor Community Standards responds to and investigates parking complaints at STRs, and general Zoning Code off-street parking rules apply to the dwelling.
Ann Arbor's Chapter 97 does not impose a dedicated STR parking-space quota; instead the property must meet the off-street parking requirements of the Unified Development Code (Chapter 55) that apply to the dwelling generally. Parking, trash and vegetation complaints at an STR are investigated by Ann Arbor Community Standards, while noise complaints go to the police. Guests parking on the street remain subject to the city's ordinary street-parking and permit-district rules. In townships and other Washtenaw cities, off-street parking standards come from the local zoning code, not the county — confirm your jurisdiction's requirement.
Illegal or overflow parking is enforced under the city's general parking ordinance; repeated STR parking complaints can trigger a Community Standards zoning investigation.
