CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH
CITY COUNCIL MEETING — COUNCIL MEMBER ITEMS REPORT
TO: THE HONORABLE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: KIM CARR, MAYOR
DATE: APRIL 19, 2021
SUBJECT: CONSIDER PROVIDING ALL OPERATORS WITH AN EXTENSION UNTIL OCTOBER 1,
2021, TO COMPLY WITH THE CITY'S UPDATED SHORT-TERM RENTAL
REGULATIONS
On March 1, the City Council adopted the short-term rental (STR) permitting fee structure,
thereby formalizing the final regulatory structure for the City's new STR framework. Under that
policy framework, the City has been divided into two zones. In Zone 1, properties located outside
of Sunset Beach must immediately obtain a City permit in order to run a hosted/owner-occupied
STR operation. In Zone 2, properties located within Sunset Beach are able to permit un-hosted /
owner un-occupied STR operations, so long as a City permit is secured by October 1, 2021.
As the City has implemented the provisions of our new STR regulations, operators in Zone 1 have
been trying make modifications in order to obtain a City permit to operate a hosted / owner-
occupied STR. However, given the challenges associated with complying with complex new
guidelines, I am requesting that all operators, including those located in Zone 1, be provided until
October 1, 2021, to obtain their requisite STIR permit.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
I recommend that the City Council vote to provide all operators in the City until October 1, 2021,
to obtain their necessary STR permit.
