Full Breakdown

Perris Municipal Code § 5.38.090 does not use a numbered strike system; it authorizes the director to suspend or revoke a short-term rental business license upon any failure to comply with the chapter, any permit condition, or required covenant, an unrecorded ownership change, or a failure to maintain or produce required guest logs. The owner must receive written notice at least 30 days before a suspension or revocation takes effect, though it does not disturb a guest's stay already booked before that date.

Violations & Fines

A licensed short-term rental found out of compliance with Chapter 5.38, including missing or inaccessible guest logs, faces director-ordered suspension or revocation under § 5.38.090, plus possible misdemeanor/infraction prosecution and administrative citation under § 5.38.100.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Perris require multiple violations before revoking an STR license?
No. Under § 5.38.090, a single documented failure to comply with Chapter 5.38 is enough grounds for the director to suspend or revoke the license.
Can a suspension end a guest's current stay?
No. Section 5.38.090 specifies a suspension or revocation does not affect a guest stay booked before the suspension's effective date.
