Parking. In addition to the parking requirements for dwellings, as outlined by Section 108-8-2, the following parking regulations are also required for all licensed short-term rental properties. At least one parking space measuring a minimum of nine feet by 20 feet shall be provided for each two sleeping rooms offered, but never less than two parking spaces. All vehicles of occupants and visitors of a short-term rental property shall be parked only within the property's boundary lines and in accordance with the approved parking plan. Additionally, up to, but no greater than, 25% of the property's front or side setbacks may be used for parking. No parking is allowed within the property's adjacent rights-of-way. No vehicles shall be parked on the lawn or landscaped areas of the property. No vehicles with a passenger capacity of greater than sixteen (16) persons may be parked at the property.
Full Breakdown
Section 108-11-8's parking standards apply on top of, not instead of, the base residential parking requirements in Section 108-8-2. Every licensed short-term rental must provide 'at least one parking space measuring a minimum of nine feet by 20 feet... for each two sleeping rooms offered, but never less than two parking spaces.' All vehicles belonging to occupants and visitors must stay 'within the property's boundary lines and in accordance with the approved parking plan,' and the code caps how much of the yard can be converted to parking: 'up to, but no greater than, 25% of the property's front or side setbacks may be used for parking.' Street parking is off-limits entirely, since 'no parking is allowed within the property's adjacent rights-of-way,' and vehicles cannot be parked on lawns or landscaped areas.
The code also addresses larger vehicles: no vehicle with a passenger capacity greater than sixteen persons may be parked at the property at all, and trailers or oversized vehicles must go in locations shown on the approved parking plan, with a minimum ten-by-forty-five-foot space and room to maneuver. Every license application must include a site plan and parking plan under Section 108-11-4 showing compliance with both this section and Chapter 108-8's general parking standards, and the approved plan, including the maximum vehicle count and large-vehicle locations, must be posted inside the rental for guests to see. Adopted by Ordinance 2023-01 on January 10, 2023, and amended by Ordinance 2026-09 on May 26, 2026.
Violations & Fines
Parking outside the approved plan, in the right-of-way, on the lawn, or with an oversized or over-capacity vehicle is an operational-standards violation under Section 108-11-8. A first occurrence within twelve months draws a warning; a fourth minor violation in that period becomes a Major Violation, and Section 108-11-10 fines run 50 percent of the advertised nightly rate for minor violations and 100 percent for major violations, per day unresolved.
