Plano can suspend or revoke a short-term rental registration after repeated documented violations of generally applicable noise, parking, occupancy, or trash ordinances. HB 1620 still permits content-neutral repeat-violator enforcement so long as the underlying rules apply citywide.
Plano Ordinance Chapter 8 authorizes the city to revoke STR registration when an operator accumulates multiple substantiated nuisance citations within a rolling 12-month window, typically three citations. The triggering offenses must apply to all residences, not only STRs, satisfying the HB 1620 content-neutrality requirement. Operators receive written notice and a hearing before the city manager or designee. Revocation typically lasts 12 months, after which the owner may reapply. During suspension, the dwelling may still be used as a long-term rental or owner-occupied home but cannot be advertised on Airbnb, Vrbo, or similar platforms.
Operating an STR after registration revocation invites daily civil penalties, removal-from-platform requests, and citation under Plano Code Ch. 8.
