Virginia Beach can revoke a short-term rental conditional-use permit when an operator accumulates documented violations such as overoccupancy, noise, or parking complaints. City Council reviews revocation cases on the public docket.
Conditional-use permits issued under CZO Section 209 carry operating conditions covering occupancy caps, noise, signage, and parking. The Planning Department tracks complaints, and the Zoning Administrator may forward repeat offenders to City Council for revocation. While Virginia Beach has not codified a numeric three-strikes formula like some cities, multiple substantiated violations within a permit cycle generally trigger administrative review. Revocation hearings are public and can permanently disqualify the property from STR use under that permit.
Repeat overoccupancy, noise, parking, or trash violations can trigger CUP revocation, civil penalties up to $500 per day, and loss of future STR eligibility.
