ATTACHMENT D Regular City Council Meeting Monday, January 11, 2021 Page 6 229 people who are patient and wait until Monday to call the City office. She reported 230 the VRBO on her block resulted in a hugehigh school party, weapons, prostitution, 231 drug use, fires, uncontrolled dog barking, excessive cars,and bachelor parties with 232 parking on all of the surrounding streets. She wondered who would be taking these 233 calls and who is going to check to make sure 16 people are not actually staying 234 there. She thought before the Council decides what is too many violations, the 235 Council needs to figure out who will manage the complaints.. 236 237 Mayor Roe stated the general thought was to contact the Police Department, which 238 was in the staff report. He believed Community Development would be tracking it 239 because they are the licensing entity. 240 241 Ms. Gundlach indicated that was generally correct. The Ordinance lists violations 242 that could be present. Anything with drug use is something the Police Department 243 should respond to and anybody who has called her with complaints on short-term 244 rentals has been told to call the police because the can confirm violations. If there 245 are parking or nuisance violations or property maintenance violations, they can be 246 reported to the Community Development Department and staff inspectors can con- 247 firm those violations. 248 249 Ms. Gundlach thought staff would be supportive if the Council wanted to reduce 250 the number of violations within 180 days, especially if staff has this license in place 251 and the regulatory tools to track them. She would not have any problem if the 252 Council wanted to decrease the number of violations on a first offense, second of- 253 fense, and revocation. 254 255 Ms. Gundlach explained in relation to the minimum number of days, the City does 256 not have staff to inspect these rentals on a regular basis. When talking about a 257 minimum rental period, in short-termrental, staff specifically used the term “rentals 258 for seven consecutive days or less are prohibited.” This does not necessarily mean 259 that a person could not take a renter who is only in the unit for three days, but they 260 have to have at least seven days as a rental. These would need to be priced accord- 261 ingly but if they know Roseville only allows them to have three rentals in a 30-day 262 period, the owner can organize that however they wish. The idea behind that was 263 limiting the number of new people in a neighborhood in the short-termrentals. 264 265 Councilmember Willmus explained he would be fine with the suggestion of tight- 266 ening up the violation schedule and looking at that. He certainly did feel that the 267 City needs to set a not less thanstay that is something greater than seven days. 268 Ideally, it would be somewhere from ten days to two weeks. 269 270 Councilmember Etten indicated he would be supportive for short-term rental hav- 271 ing a smaller number of violations. He suggested two violations within 180 days. 272 He would also be open to a longer rental period such as nine- or ten-dayrental in
