Registration:An annual short-term rental (STR) registration certificate and registration fee will be required for all STRs operating in
Truckee,including those within homeowner associations.-Registration fees should not exceed$100 annually and should be
prorated for new short term rentals. Permits and associated fees should be transferable with the sale of the property.Occupancy
Limit: No more than two people per bedroom plus two additional people will be permitted,excluding children under five.- No!
Unconstitutional and discriminatory. Invasion of privacy and property rights.This is too restrictive. Many homeowners have bunk
rooms and/or lofts. Parking:On-site parking shall be provided and no parking will be permitted on the street or in an unpaved area.
STRs in the Downtown Mixed Use(DMU)zoning district may propose an alternative parking plan designating off-site parking.-This
can be restrictive to owners with small driveways and no garages.Street parking should be allowed in non-winter months. Noise:
Noise regulations,including quiet hours between 10 pm and 7 am will be imposed (applies town-wide,not just to STRs).-we often
experience neighbors reporting excessive noise on the wrong house or reporting excessive noise before quiet hours even
commence.What will the process for regulation be?How will wrongly or unjustly accused offenders be able to defend against
accusations?What sort of proof will be required?Garbage:Accumulation of trash and debris outside of a short-term rental at any
time is prohibited.Trash service must be arranged at each STIR with a 2-can minimum.A bear resistant trash enclosure will be
required at each STIR to manage trash and protect wildlife.Operators will have until 10/31/2021 to install a bear resistant trash
enclosure.Additional time needed due to COVID Fire Safety:Working fire extinguishers,smoke alarms,carbon monoxide detectors,
and visible address numbers will be required at each short-term rental,
