Rocklin requires every STR permittee to maintain an on-site guest register for 18 months. The register must list each guest's name, address, vehicle year/make/model/color/plate/state, arrival and departure dates, number of guests in the party, and the nightly rent charged. The register must be produced for inspection by the Director of Community Development or the Rocklin Police Department on request.
Per RMC 5.22.070, the guest-register obligation is a continuing condition of the STR permit. Each entry must capture: (1) guest's full name and home address; (2) vehicle details — year, make, model, color, license plate number, and state of registration; (3) arrival date and departure date; (4) number of guests in the rental party; and (5) the nightly rent amount paid. Records must be retained for 18 months from the date of the stay and kept on site (or readily producible from the property). The Director of Community Development and Rocklin Police are authorized inspectors. Separately, every advertisement or platform listing must display the STR permit number (RMC 5.22.080), and the permit itself must be posted inside the dwelling. Hosts also remain responsible for collecting and remitting Transient Occupancy Tax under RMC Chapter 5.24 on any rental of less than 30 days.
Failure to maintain the register, retain it 18 months, or produce it on inspection is a violation of RMC 5.22.070 enforceable by Code Enforcement and Rocklin PD; advertising without the permit number violates RMC 5.22.080.
