Pico Rivera sets no annual night cap on short-term rentals because it has no STR ordinance. STRs are not a permitted residential use, so there is no allowed number of rental nights to cap.
There is no annual night limit for short-term rentals in Pico Rivera, because a night cap presupposes STRs are allowed and only limited in frequency. The city has adopted no STR ordinance, and its Zoning Code recognizes lodging only as Hotels and Motels defined by transient occupancy of less than thirty consecutive days, permitted by Conditional Use Permit in the C-G commercial zone. Since renting a home short-term is not a permitted residential use in the first place, no ordinance sets a maximum number of rental nights per year. Any figure such as a 90-night annual cap reflects other cities' rules, not Pico Rivera's, and cannot be relied on here.
Because STRs are not permitted, even a single short-term rental of a residence can be cited as an unpermitted zoning use; there is no allowed-nights threshold that legitimizes it.
