Draft STR rules would require 60‑minute agent response, parking tied to bedrooms and insurance; commissioners tighten enforcement language
Summary
The draft short‑term rental rules would require a 60‑minute agent response time, one designated parking space per rented bedroom (beyond three bedrooms), $1 million liability insurance naming Oakley as additional insured, housekeeping and trash standards, and a three‑strike penalty structure culminating in permit revocation.
Commissioners reviewed management and enforcement provisions in the short‑term rental draft, focusing on agent response, parking, insurance and penalties. The draft requires a local contact/agent and specifies that "If the agent is called and they don't respond within 60 minutes, that that's considered a violation"; commissioners retained the 60‑minute response time as enforceable and discussed police reports as necessary documentary evidence for repeat violations.
Parking rules in the draft require designated on‑site parking and propose one parking space per rented bedroom beyond three bedrooms; advertisement must list available on‑site parking. The commission agreed on a $1,000,000 minimum liability policy with Oakley listed as an additional insured. The infraction structure in the draft is a written warning for the first offense, $500 for a second offense and $1,000 for third and subsequent offenses, with immediate revocation of the STR permit and a two‑year bar on applying for a new permit after revocation.
