Mayor Faulconer Proposes Plan for Short-Term Rental Industry in San Diego

Mayor Faulconer Proposes Plan for Short-Term Rental Industry in San Diego


San Diego - Mayor Kevin L. Faulconer announced a new set of proposed regulations on the short-term residential occupancy (STRO) industry that will be considered by the City Council this month.

The topic has sparked over a dozen neighborhoods and town councils to have meetings and forums open for the public. July 12, 2018, Mack Langston of Pacific Coast Commercial was invited to give a presentation at the University City of Realtors luncheon to inform the group about Mayor Faulconer’s proposal. Langston is a seasoned specialist in multi-family commercial real estate and is also actively involved as a member of numerous Associations in San Diego. He brought two additional experts in real estate, Eden Yaege and Kyle E. Yaege, Law Attorney, to share the podium with him.

Mayor Faulconer’s proposal would create the City’s first license-based system to short-term rentals. Rental properties provide owners a revenue stream in high-cost cities and they give visitors an alternative to expensive coastal hotels. However, neighbors have complained in recent years that short-term rentals can alter a neighborhood's character with over-crowding and disruptive guests.
Under Faulconer's proposal, all hosts would be required to register with the city, charge cost-recoverable fees to administer licenses and enforce code violation. They would also hire additional staff to respond to complaints about nuisance properties, establish a “Good Neighbor” policy; and implement a per-night fee that would generate an estimated $3 million annually for affordable housing projects.
Those with dwellings of five or more bedrooms would need to acquire a neighborhood use permit. There would be a two-license maximum per host: one for a primary residence and another for a secondary home. There would be no license limits in Mission Beach, however. Faulconer said, “short-term rentals are already part of that community's history and character. All coastal and downtown communities would require three-night minimum stays.”
The proposal is on the agenda for noon, today, July 16, 2018 at City Hall. There is potential for a vote after an estimated lengthy discussion period and comments from the public on this controversial topic. This subject has recently been dealt with in Los Angeles, San Francisco, Santa Monica, Pasadena, Miami Beach and Boston. At least two other proposals from Councilmembers have been released. The session on Monday is expected to be a long one.
