Rocklin Municipal Code Ch. 5.22 limits short-term rental guests in excess of the occupancy cap after 10:00 p.m. and prohibits 'special events.' The permittee or a designated secondary contact must respond on site within 30 minutes of a complaint. Repeat disturbance calls are billable to the property under RMC Ch. 9.40 (Disturbance Call Back Cost Recovery).
Rocklin's STR rules build noise control into the permit itself rather than a separate STR-specific decibel limit: (1) overnight occupancy must drop to the limit by 10 p.m.; (2) any special event that would otherwise require a city permit is prohibited at an STR; (3) the permittee or designated secondary contact must be reachable 24/7 and on site within 30 minutes of a complaint. Standard citywide nuisance and noise provisions in Title 9 of the RMC also apply. Under RMC Ch. 9.40, after a second response to the same address for a 'loud or unruly gathering,' the City may bill the responsible party for police response costs.
Failing to respond within 30 minutes, hosting a special event, or exceeding the 10 p.m. guest cutoff are grounds for permit suspension or revocation under RMC Ch. 5.22. Repeat disturbance calls are billable to the responsible party under RMC Ch. 9.40.
