Vacation Rental Ordinance
1. The Owner is required to use "reasonably prudent business practices" to
ensure that the Vacation Rental unit complies with all applicable codes regarding Fire,
Building and Safety, Health and Safety, and all other relevant laws.
2. The Owner is required to limit overnight occupancy of the Vacation Rental
unit to a specific number of occupants. The maximum number of overnight occupants is
set at two persons plus an amount that will not exceed two persons per bedroom within
each Vacation Rental unit. The Owner is also required to limit the daytime occupancy
of the Vacation Rental unit to two (2) persons or an amount not to exceed 150% of the
overnight occupancy. Thus, if a vacation rental has three bedrooms, the total number of
overnight occupants would be 8 (2 plus 2 time 3 bedrooms) and 12 daytime occupants
(8 times 150%). The revised draft of the ordinance includes the following chart that
provides a more detailed example of how this formula would be applied:
Number of Total of Overnight Additional Daytime Total Daytime

3, The Owner, his or her agent, and/or the local contact person designated
by the Owner is required to be available twenty-four (24) hours per day, seven (7) days
per week for the purpose of responding within 45 minutes to complaints regarding the
condition, operation, or conduct of occupants of the Vacation Rental during the periods
the unit is rented.
4. The Owner is required to use reasonably prudent business practices to
ensure that the occupants and/or guests of the Vacation Rental unit do not create
unreasonable noise or disturbances, engage in disorderly conduct, or violate provisions
of the Municipal Code or any State Law.
5. Any radio receiver, musical instrument, phonograph, loudspeaker, sound
amplifier, or any machine or device for the producing or reproducing of any sound is
required to be conducted within an enclosed Vacation Rental unit.
6. Prior to occupancy pursuant to each separate occasion of rental of a
Vacation Rental, the Owner or the Owner's agent or representative shall obtain the
name, address, and driver's license number of the Responsible Person and shall
require such Responsible Person to execute a formal acknowledgement that he or she

is legally responsible for compliance of all occupants of the Vacation Rental or their
guests with all provisions of this Chapter and/or the Municipal Code. The Owner or the
Owner's agent is also required to furnish a copy of the Good Neighbor Brochure (a
document to be prepared by the City Manager's Office) to each Responsible Person.
This information shall be readily available upon request of any officer of the City
responsible for the enforcement of this Chapter.
7. The Owner, or his or her agent, shall, upon notification that the occupants
and/or guests of the Vacation Rental Unit have created unreasonable noise or
disturbances, engaged in disorderly conduct, or committed violations of provisions of
the Municipal Code or any State Law, shall promptly respond in a timely and
appropriate manner to prevent a recurrence of such conduct by those occupants or
guests. Failure of the Owner or his or her agent to respond to calls or complaints
regarding the condition, operation, or conduct of occupants of the Vacation Rental in a
timely and appropriate manner shall be grounds for imposition of penalties as set forth
in this Chapter. It is not intended that an Owner, agent, or local contact person act as a
peace officer or place himself or herself in an at-risk situation.
8. Trash and refuse shall not be left stored within public view, except in
proper containers for the purpose of collection by the collectors and between the hours
of five a.m. and eight p.m. on scheduled trash collection days. The Owner of the
Vacation Rental Unit shall use reasonably prudent business practices to ensure
compliance with all the provisions of Chapter 6.04 of the Municipal Code (waste
disposal and diversion) and is specifically charged with providing the highest level of
solid waste collection service available to residential customers in the City which would
specifically include "backyard collection" or "walk-in" service."
9. The Owner is required to comply with all provisions of Chapter 3.24 of the
Municipal Code concerning transient occupancy taxes, including, but not limited to,
submission of a monthly return in accordance with Section 3.24.080. The monthly
return shall be filed each month regardless of whether the Vacation Rental Unit was
rented or not during each such month.
10. The City Manager has the express authority to impose additional standard
conditions, applicable to all Vacation Rental units, as necessary to achieve the
objectives of the ordinance.
The City will retain the full panoply of enforcement tools available under the City
Municipal Code, including without limitation the ability to prosecute violations as
misdemeanors, issue administrative citations, and initiate civil actions as needed. In
addition, upon the fourth or subsequent violation in any 24 month period, the City
Manager has the authority to suspend or revoke the Vacation Rental Registration
Certificate. The ordinance also includes a provision that the minimum fine for an
administrative citation will be $250.00 for a first offense and $500.00 for each offense
thereafter.

City Council Staff Report
September 17,2008
Vacation Rental Ordinance
Requirements related to naming the City as an additional insured on policies of
insurance to be maintained by Owners and listing of vacation rental units on the City's
web page have been deleted from the Ordinance.
Staff will provide the City Council with a report during the second quarter of calendar
year 2009 on the implementation and enforcement of the Vacation Rental ordinance.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Ordinance contemplates the imposition of a fee and cost recovery program that
should make the implementation of the ordinance cost neutral. Existing city resources
will be sufficient to cover any start up costs which we anticipate will be reimbursed
through t ee and cost recovery components of the ordinance.

City Manager may suspend or revoke the Vacation Rental Registration Certificate for a
Vacation Rental unit. The appeal and hearing provisions of Chapter 1.06 shall apply to
