Bridgeport Chapter 14 escalates STR penalties for repeat noise, occupancy, and nuisance violations, including registration suspension or revocation after multiple substantiated complaints inside a defined lookback window.
The ordinance treats individual incidents as fines but reserves stronger remedies for chronic problem properties. Multiple substantiated complaints in a rolling period — typically 12 months — can trigger a public hearing and revocation of the STR registration, after which the unit cannot be re-listed. The framework mirrors strike-based regimes elsewhere and is designed to remove platform listings that generate disproportionate police, fire, or code calls without forcing the city to chase fees on every booking.
Three or more substantiated incidents in twelve months can prompt registration revocation, after-hearing fines, and platform delisting demands.
