Short-term rentals are not specifically authorized in Camarillo, so there are no STR-specific noise rules. However, any rental property must comply with CMC Chapter 10.34 noise standards (55/45 dBA day/night at residential property lines). The Social Host Responsibility ordinance (CMC 10.32) also applies to rental situations involving gatherings.
While Camarillo lacks a dedicated STR ordinance, the general noise ordinance (CMC Chapter 10.34) applies to all properties. Section 10.34.040 sets residential noise limits at 55 dBA during 7 AM-9 PM and 45 dBA during 9 PM-7 AM. CMC Chapter 10.32 (Social Host Responsibility) holds property owners and persons in charge of premises liable for gatherings that require law enforcement response, regardless of whether the property is owner-occupied or rented. Section 10.32.030 requires proper property management to prevent disturbances. Property owners are liable for response costs under Section 10.32.050. In Camarillo's HOA-heavy environment, CC&Rs provide additional noise restrictions that apply to tenants and guests. Many HOAs have specific provisions about rental occupant conduct.
Noise violations at rental properties result in citations under CMC 10.34.150 (misdemeanor). Social host violations under CMC 10.32.040 carry penalties and the property owner may be assessed law enforcement response costs per Section 10.32.050. Contact Camarillo Police at (805) 388-5100.
