Full Breakdown
Sec. 10-295(a)(10)(b) requires the owner-occupant agreement to include the owner's acknowledgment that the guest was provided a written copy of the City of Simpsonville's noise ordinance. This means every STR guest is put on notice of the same noise limits that apply citywide. Under Sec. 10-297(d), the designated STR agent must receive and respond to city notifications about unreasonable noise, disturbances, disorderly conduct, or overcrowding. Owners also agree (Sec. 10-295(a)(5)) to use best efforts so that guest use does not disrupt neighbors' quiet enjoyment.
Violations & Fines
Noise violations fall under the city noise ordinance and STR enforcement. The agent must respond to disturbance notices; repeat convictions count toward the 12-month suspension trigger (Sec. 10-298).
