Summary
Henderson bars short-term vacation rentals from generating more traffic or different vehicle traffic than a home with a permanent resident, capping the parking and street-congestion impact guests can create.
A short-term vacation rental shall not generate more traffic or different types of vehicle traffic than a home occupied by a permanent resident. A short-term vacation rental may only be used for overnight accommodations and shall not be used for weddings, bachelor or bachelorette parties, or any gathering meeting the definition of “short-term vacation rental – party” as established in Chapter 19.37, Definitions of Terms. A short-term vacation rental shall, at all times, comply with all residential property maintenance requirements of HMC Title 15.
Full Breakdown
The Development Code's short-term vacation rental standards say a registered STR 'shall not generate more traffic or different types of vehicle traffic than a home occupied by a permanent resident'. Henderson's stand-in for a numeric parking cap. It's one of the non-waivable Section 19.9.4.F standards, enforced by Community Development and Services with the same administrative-citation and daily-fine schedule as other registration violations. The code sets no separate on-site parking-space count for STRs; traffic volume and vehicle type are what's regulated.
Violations & Fines
Generating more or different vehicle traffic than a permanent-resident household violates HMC § 19.9.4.F; the City can issue administrative citations and daily fines, and repeated violations can lead to registration termination.
