Short-term rentals are prohibited in West Covina. STR noise is not applicable as the city bans the activity entirely under its Development Code.
Since short-term rentals are prohibited in West Covina under the 2024 Development Code, there are no STR-specific noise rules. However, all residents and visitors must comply with Chapter 15, Article IV noise regulations. Section 15-85 prohibits noise audible at 50 feet from property lines. Section 15-94 establishes quiet hours from 10 PM to 7 AM. Any property being illegally operated as an STR would be subject to both STR ban enforcement and noise violation penalties.
STR operation itself is a violation. Noise violations carry penalties up to $1,000 and 6 months jail.
