After longstanding complaints from local residents about so-called "party houses," the City of Roseville has taken steps to regulate short-term rentals such as those arranged through sites like Airbnb and VRBO.
The City Council met on Mondayand agreed to impose a series of restrictions on non-owner-occupied short-term rentals following complaints about parties being held on one-night or weekend stays.
Under the new rules, which were passed on a 5-0 vote, owners who rent out their properties for short-term stays must now be licensed and pay the city's lodging tax, and the minimum stay in homes where the owner is not present will be 10 days from May to September, and seven days between October and April.
