Galveston does not require the host to be present during stays. Instead the owner must designate a local contact available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, who responds to complaints within one hour and resolves them within two.
Rather than an on-site host, Galveston Ord. 25-060 requires a designated local contact person available around the clock. That contact must respond in person or by phone within one hour to any city-code complaint and take remedial action, resolving complaints within two hours. Failure to respond within the hour is itself a violation. The requirement supports absentee and investor ownership while ensuring rapid response to neighbor problems. Texas counties cannot zone, so unincorporated Galveston County imposes no host-presence or contact rule.
Failure of the local contact to respond within one hour or resolve within two hours is a violation; Class C misdemeanor, up to $500 per day, and grounds for revocation.
