within unincorporated areas of the County. PROVIDED initial, general direction
to staff from the DCD on the preparation of an ordinance regulating the short-
term rental of private dwellings within the unincorporated areas of the County,
with the following concerns and preferences:
a) the great diversity in the unincorporated areas, that “one size fits all” may present
problems in implementation in issues such as parking, and limiting the number of
guests allowed.
b) Permitting should reasonably protect neighbors without creating an undue
beauracratic burden
c) That enforcement not become a major difficulty, creating a scenario in which all
fees and taxes created are spent on processing permits and enforcement
d) Prohibit short term rental of any Accessory Dwelling Unit under a ministerial
permit
e) Prohibit rental of any unit that is subject to an Affordable Housing Agreement
f) Restrict the number of days a rental unit can be rented within a calendar year (90)
g) Notification to neighbors prior to granting permits and provision of the contact
information of the property owner for nuisance complaints
h) Require the owner to be nearby during all rentals
i) Set occupancy parameters by the number of beds available in the unit
j) Require payment of transient occupancy tax, business license tax and/or business
license or permit fee
DIRECTED staff get input from the municipal advisory councils, presenting them
with outline of today’s conclusions for consideration; and RETURN to the Board

to have a balance between community protection and utilizing the income
opportunity of short-term rental for the Board's consideration.
