Many (most?) of these types of rules are imposed by HOAs made up of property owners, not the city.

You should read your city's code. Most cities have now adopted the same restrictions that used to be exclusive to HOAs.

I think most larger cities have rules against parking vehicles in a yard visible to the street. In the driveway is usually ok. And converting more of your yard into driveway is usually restricted by zoning as well.
