Full Breakdown

080 of the Perris Municipal Code sets the parking standard for short-term rentals. The number of guest vehicles is limited to one vehicle for a one-bedroom unit, or a maximum of two vehicles for a unit with two or more bedrooms. This is a flat cap rather than a per-bedroom escalation, so a four-bedroom rental is still limited to two vehicles unless the City approves more. 080 gives the director discretion: when unusual size, parking, or other physical characteristics are shown, the director may approve a greater maximum number of vehicles as part of the short-term rental business license application or renewal.

Persistent parking-related violations can support suspension or revocation of the short-term rental business license under Section 5.38.090.
