Often these rules <br /> include disclosure to neighbors, a "Good Neighbor Policy"brochure for the renter,parking and <br /> garbage policies, and quiet hours for the neighborhood. An emergency contact who would be <br /> readily available to respond to a complaint is typically required. City ordinances may define who <br /> can own and operate an STR. Cities may limit operation to the primary homeowner or renter, or <br /> they may allow investors who own multiple STR properties. <br /> The Grand Jury observed the following STR models: <br /> Table 2: Models of short-term rentals <br /> Hosted/Shared Housing Owner must be on the property/in <br /> house <br /> Primary Housing Rentals of an owner's primary <br /> residence are permitted <br /> Unrestricted No restrictions on ownership (income- <br /> producing property) <br /> The Hosted/Shared model is when a homeowner or renter with an extra room rents it out for <br /> fewer than thirty days. The host stays at the property during the guests' stay, either in the house <br /> or in an on-property Accessory Dwelling Unit(ADU). The Primary Housing model is when the <br /> host rents out their principal home but is not present on the property. Unrestricted STRs are <br /> income-producing properties, often owned by corporations and managed by property <br /> management companies. <br /> 2024-2025 Orange County Grand Jury Page 7 <br />
