Las Vegas Title 6.85 uses an escalating discipline system: documented complaints for noise, occupancy, parking, or nuisance issues accumulate, and three substantiated violations within a 12-month window can result in license suspension or full revocation.
The city's Department of Business Services tracks complaints against each licensed short-term rental. A first substantiated violation typically triggers a written warning and an administrative fine. A second within twelve months escalates to a larger fine plus a compliance hearing. A third strike inside the same window can lead to suspension or revocation of the STR business license, plus a multi-year ban on relicensing the same property. Severe single events, such as a confirmed unruly-gathering ordinance violation, can fast-track suspension. The licensee, not the platform, bears responsibility for enforcement.
Three substantiated complaints within twelve months can revoke the STR license; a single shooting, party-house, or noise violation involving safety risk can trigger immediate emergency suspension under Title 6.85.
