Neighborhood Services inspectors told the special magistrate on July 21 that a property advertised on Airbnb remained available for reservation and that two occupants on site confirmed they were renting the unit. The magistrate entered adjudication and set a 30‑day deadline to cease short‑term rental activity or face a $500 daily fine.

Neighborhood service inspector Jonathan Lemestri presented screenshots of an Airbnb listing and read a 2023 police report; he said the listing included reviews and that “Anyone could make a reservation at the house.” Lemestri told the hearing he confirmed on July 18 that guests were occupying the property and that the advertisement and reservations were still live.

Lemestri asked the magistrate to enter adjudication to create a record of the unauthorized short‑term rental and to enable fines if the use resumed. The magistrate said, “Based on the unrebutted testimony of the court enforcement officer, I find that the violation does exist,” and entered adjudication with a 30‑day abatement and a $500 daily fine if the violation was not corrected.

The case file includes a police report from May 2023 and multiple Airbnb reviews shown to the magistrate; the inspector also noted that a previous magistrate had found a related advertisement violation and that this case concerns actual ongoing rental activity. Owners were ordered to stop the short‑term rental use and to appear or provide proof of compliance.
