STR guests in Omaha are subject to the same noise ordinance as all residents: 70 dB daytime, 55 dB nighttime, with quiet hours from 10 PM to 7 AM.
Short-term rental guests must comply with Omaha's Chapter 17 Noise Control ordinance. The 10 PM to 7 AM quiet hours and decibel limits apply to STR properties just as they do to any residential property. STR operators are responsible for ensuring their guests comply with city ordinances. Repeated noise complaints can jeopardize a rental's ability to continue operating.
Noise violations by STR guests can result in fines for the responsible parties. Persistent violations may trigger code enforcement action against the STR registration.
