Moorpark uses progressive discipline for short-term rental violations, escalating from warnings to citations to permit revocation when the same property accumulates verified noise, parking, or trash complaints in a defined period.
Repeat verified violations within a rolling 12-month window can trigger a strike system. A first verified violation typically yields a warning or low fine; subsequent violations bring escalating administrative penalties; and a third or fourth strike can lead to permit suspension or revocation. The Code Compliance Division documents calls for service from Ventura County Sheriff and resident complaints. Hosts have an appeal right through the city's hearing officer process. The system is intended to weed out problem STRs while letting compliant operators continue.
Three or more verified violations in a 12-month period typically result in permit suspension or revocation; appeals run through the city's administrative hearing process.
