Inglewood, CA Short-Term Rentals: Noise Rules (2026)

" Section 8-137 defines a "party house" as a unit or property leased for gatherings of the type typically held in hotel ballrooms or event spaces, or where a "loud or unruly gathering" occurs, and defines that gathering broadly to include loud noise, obstructing a street or sidewalk, public intoxication, service of alcohol to minors, assault or domestic violence, vandalism, littering, trespassing, or unlawful drug possession within fifty feet of the property line. Section 8-141(7) makes every host responsible for compliance with the City's Noise Regulations under Article 2 of Chapter 5, plus all applicable health, safety, building and fire protection laws.

Section 8-141(6) requires the host to "actively prevent, or immediately abate (within one hour)" any nuisance activity from the rental, and Section 8-141(11) requires the host to give prospective guests information on noise regulations, quiet hours, and trash rules before they occupy the unit, and to tell guests about any property cameras. The Code's definition of "local contact person" reinforces the same duty: that contact must be reachable 24/7 and must respond to complaints about the unit's condition or occupants' conduct within 60 minutes, with authority to terminate the rental immediately if a resolution agreement allows it.
