Moorpark requires the city-issued STR permit number to appear on any public listing on Airbnb, VRBO, or similar platforms, allowing the city to identify unpermitted operators and request data from booking services.
Listings without a valid permit number can be flagged to the platform for removal, and the city may pursue both the host and, where state law allows, the platform for facilitating illegal lodging. California Revenue & Taxation Code §7280 lets cities collect transient occupancy tax through booking platforms, and Moorpark's 10% TOT under MMC Title 3 applies to all STR stays. Hosts must also include occupancy limits, contact information, and posted house rules. The city periodically scans listings to identify unpermitted properties.
Advertising an STR without a city permit number triggers takedown requests, daily fines, and unpaid TOT collection actions through MMC Title 3 enforcement.
