with
the
Department

special
program
compliance
and
we
oversee
the
vacation
rental
program
here
in
the

Palm
Springs.
D
But
before
you
this
afternoon,
is
a
staff
report
regarding
the
property
located
at
677,
West
Crescent
Drive
here
in
Palm
Springs.
Now
some
background
on
this
property
is
this:
Market
did
hold
a
vacation
route
certificate
which
expired
July,
31st
2012..
It
was
managed
by
an
agency
titled
365
vacation
rentals
in
that
vocational
certificate
was
closed.
July
15
2020.
D
on
December
28
2022
staff
did
find
that
this
property
was
operating
as
a
vacation
rental.
As
elements
listed,
English
staff
reports
there's
an
advertisement
found
on
Airbnb
listed
via
in
Palm
Springs
and
had
five
reviews.
Additionally,
a
code
compliance
officer
did
submit
a
booking
inquiry
to
state
for
the
dates
between
March
6
2023
through
March
10th
2023,
a
total
of
four
nights
and
a
response
was
received
by
the
code
officer
confirming
their
availability
and
that's
an
attachment.
D
Six
in
your
staff
reported
to
do
based
off
of
the
elements
that
led
that
road
officers
investigate
the
property
citation,
was
issued,
830446
and
amount
of
five
thousand
dollars
to
the
property
owner
on
title
and
was
mailed
to
the
property
address
that
was
listed
on
title
as
well,
I'm,
not
sure
if
that
code
officers
on
the
zoom
call
this
evening
only
this
afternoon,
but
I
am
available
to
answer
any
questions
related
to
the
investigation
and
the
attachments
provided
in
the
second
Point.
Thank
you.
E
Good
afternoon,
everyone,
sorry
can
everybody
hear
me:
okay,
yes,
great
and
just
unclear
we're
speaking
currently
speaking
on
agenda
item
three
correct
perfect.
So
my
name
is
Mitch
snappan
I'm,
a
co-compliant
supervisor
for
the
city
of
Palm
Springs
on
Monday
December,
26
2022,
while
conducting
a
review
available
rental
listings
on
the
web-based
booking
platform.
Airbnb.Com
code
officer,
Jacob
Gonzalez
came
across
an
advertisement
in
the
Las
Palmas
neighborhood
titled
Villa
in
Palm
Springs,
which
can
be
found
in
attachment
number
five
in
the
staff
report.
E
So
he
reviewed
the
photos
contained
within
the
ad
and
was
able
to
identify
the
property
address
as
677
West
Crescent
Drive
positively
and
drafted
a
citation
for
failing
to
post
the
city
ID
on
Wednesday
December
28
2022,
while
reviewing
the
issued
citation
by
Officer
Gonzalez
I
found
that
the
property
located
at
677,
West,
Crescent
Drive
no
longer
held
an
active
vacation
rental
registration
certificate
showing
as
having
expired
in
July
of
2020.
I,
confirmed
this
with
the
office
of
special
program
admin
staff.
The
certificate
had
been
closed
with
the
owner's
authorized
agency.
E
Having
submitted
closure
paperwork
on
July
15
2020..
At
that
point,
I
opened
an
investigation
for
what
appeared
to
be
an
operating
unregistered
rental.
I
sent
a
message
via
the
airbnb.com
contact
host
feature
inquiring
about
a
four
nights
day:
arriving
Monday,
March
6th
and
departing
Friday
March
10th.
The
message
was:
hi
Stephen.
The
pictures
of
the
house
look
great.
My
family
and
I
are
planning
a
trip
to
come
out
to
the
tennis
tournament
in
March.
E
You
know
looking
for
a
place
to
stay
for
the
first
week,
Monday
through
Friday,
our
flight
into
Palm
Springs
arrives
at
10,
A.M
and
I,
see
that
you
have
your
check-in
time
listed
as
3
P.M.
But
would
you
be
able
to
accommodate
a
check-in
time
listed
accommodate
an
earlier
check-in
earlier
than
that
the
host
Stephen
responds
to
my
inquiry
with
the
following
unique
response:
hi
Don
yeah
an
early
check-in
at
10
A.M,
is
perfectly
fine
and
subsequently
sent
me
an
invitation
to
book.
My
request
is
short-term.
E
As
a
result
of
our
findings
contained
within
the
advertisement.
The
unique
response
to
my
inquiry,
as
well
as
the
invitation
to
book
the
requested
four
nights
day,
I
found
that
the
property
located
at
677
West
Crescent
Drive,
was
in
violation
of
psmc
525040a
operating
a
vacation
rental
without
a
vacation
rental
registration
certificate
initiate
citation
ab0446
to
the
property
owner
on
title,
Palin,
joao
and
again,
to
reiterate
the
specific
Elements
which
resulted
in
us
finding
that
the
property
was
in
violation
number
one.
E
The
property
was
advertised
on
airbnb.com
as
being
able
to
book
the
entire
home
for
a
minimum
of
four
nights
which
can
be
found
on
I.
Believe
it's
page.
29
of
the
stock
report
is
attachment
number
five
without
a
vacation
rental
registration
certificate
and
number
two.
The
host
Stephen
interacted
with
me
via
con
via
the
contact
host
feature
and
displayed
clear
intent
to
accept
and
facilitate
my
request
to
book
a
four
night
stay
by
sending
the
invitation
to
book.
E
An
owner
agent
or
any
other
representative
of
the
owner
interacts
with
another
party,
whether
directly
or
indirectly,
through
personal
or
digital
electronic
contact,
with
the
intent
to
provide
availability
of
the
property
for
occupancy
of
28
days
or
less
or
to
complete
a
rental
and
or
reservation
of
the
property
for
future
occupancy
of
28
days
or
less
so.
That'll
conclude
what
I
have
to
so
I'll
hand
it
back
to
Patrick
and
I'm
available
to
answer
any
questions
that
the
board
may
have.
D
A
D
Yeah,
so
the
vocational
certificate
expires
annually
so
that
expiration
date
that
was
mentioned
was
the
date
that
that
certificate
and
respect
was
going
through
expire
in
2020.
However,
that
recreational
certificate
was
closed
by
the
agency
prior
to
expiring
on
July
15th.
So
what
is
that?
What
does
that
look
like?
H
A
And
I,
don't
think
I
have
any
questions,
because
you
just
answered
mine
about
whether
the
owner
actually
signed
that
form
any.
If
there's
nothing
further
from
the
board
towards
the
city.
At
this
time,
I
don't
I'd
like
to
open
the
appeal
hearing.
The
appellant
will
be
invited
to
speak
for
up
to
10
minutes.
Any
member
of
the
public
who
desires
to
speak
on
this
appeal
hearing
shall
have
up
to
three
minutes
to
speak.
A
I
Like
good
afternoon,
everyone
I
hope
everyone's
doing
well
today
before
I
start
I'd
like
to
thank
everyone
for
their
time.
Today,
I
am
Stephen
Joe,
the
son
of
the
owner
of
the
property
at
677,
West
question
Drive,
Palm,
Springs
and
I'm,
representing
my
dad
on
this
hearing,
I'm
here
to
address
our
first
violation
issue
regarding
to
the
rental
premise:
we
posted
that
out
Airbnb
late
last
year,
and
we
were
not
aware
that
our
rental
license
has
expired
years
ago.
I
We
thought
the
license
was
still
active,
but
as
it
turns
out,
it
expired
in
July
of
2020..
Therefore,
we
were
marked
on
the
violation
of
advertising
a
house
on
Airbnb
without
having
a
valid
permit
in
Palm
Springs
via
officer
Mitch.
The
violation
consisted
of
a
five
thousand
dollar
fine
and
a
permanent
ban
on
the
rental
license.
The
page
has
now
been
shut
down
when
the
violation
was
issued
and
we
were
awaiting
this
year.
I
I
In
addition,
given
the
approval
of
the
board,
we
would
like
to
request
to
renew
our
previous
rental
permit
that
expired
in
2020
and
potentially
start
again,
given
that
everything
is
valid,
this
time
and
checked
by
the
student
again,
we
were
not
aware
of
the
expiration
of
the
rental
license
and
would
like
to
sincerely
apologize
again
on
this
issue.
We
hope
that
the
board
understands
our
situation
and
will
take
consideration
into
a
fair
solution.
I
would
like
to
thank
everyone
for
their
time
today
to
listen
to
my
case.
I
It
was
just
that
we
weren't
aware
that
our
rental
lessons,
like
expired
in
2020
I,
was
actually
approved
by
my
dad
paid
on
Joe,
the
owner
of
the
property
to
start
Airbnb
again
and
I
believe
he
was
not
aware
that
the
license
will
expired
as
well.
So,
therefore,
I
continue
and
allows
the
person
responding
to
officer
Mitch's
inquiry
and
yeah.
That
should
be
all
for
me.
A
H
So,
like
I
asked
this
question
earlier,
and
hopefully
you
heard
that
the
the
city
was
given
and
noticed
a
close
permit
and
it
was
signed
by
someone
in
your
family
I.
Don't
know
if
it
was
your
mother
or
your
father,
but
there
was
knowledge
that
you
I
mean
according
to
what
we
know.
There
was
knowledge
that
in
fact,
he's
like
don't
didn't
have
on
it
like
do
you
have
any
information
about
that.
I
Yes,
thanks
for
the
question,
I
believe
that
my
dad
sincerely
forgot
that
he
signed
a
closure.
The
house
was
actually
owned
by
a
previous
friend
of
his
I
think
his
name
was
Ivan
Arnold
I
believe
he
assisted
my
dad
on
the
rental
of
the
property,
a
while
back
I
I
was
not
that
close
with
him.
So
I
do
not
know
the
details.
When
I
asked
to
rent
the
house
on
Airbnb
website
as
of
late
last
year,
my
dad
agreed
and
said
everything
was
wasn't
checked.
I
I
D
A
F
C
D
G
A
Right
yeah
I
think
I'm
reiterating
what
you've
all
said,
but,
from
my
perspective,
signing
a
document
that
says
you
wish
to
close
the
vacation
rental
permit.
I
have
seen
that
document
I
have
signed
one
so
I
know
that
it
basically
States
I'm
sure
I'm
not
going
to
rent
this
further,
so
I
think
based
on
the
information,
both
the
city
and
the
appellant
provided
there,
there
had
to
have
been
some
level
of
knowledge.
B
B
A
Right,
thank
you.
You'll
get
an
official
notification
from
the
city.
The
ban
on
short-term
rental
does
not
preclude
you
from
doing
long-term
rental
based
on
the
city's
definition
is
longer
than
28
nights.
I
believe
I
want
to
thank
everyone
for
their
time.
On
this
case,
we
will
move
on
to
the
next
case.
A
Next
item
is
number
four
concerning
the
property
at
3149
East
Ventura
Road
is
an
appeal
of
the
twenty
five
hundred
dollar
fine
and
administrative
decision
of
a
two-year
suspension
of
the
vacation
rental
registration
certificate
board
secretary.
Could
you
please
ensure
that
the
city
staff
and
the
appellant
understand
that
their
testimony
is
under
oath.
B
We
do
have
signed
up
to
David
from
City
staff
in
person.
Anyone
on
Zoom
desires
to
testify
at
the
disappearing
under
the
laws
of
perjury.
If
you
choose
to
speak,
you
hereby
accept
knowledge
that
your
testimony
shall
be
the
truth,
the
whole
truth
or
nothing,
but
the
truth
and
the
other
ones
also
owns
it.
B
A
D
Might
you
agree
to
the
testimony?
Let's
see
Clerk's
statement
good

Chair

this

My

the
Department
of
special

and
we
order

was
issued
for

on
August
13
2022.
There
was

D
D
E
Thank
you
Patrick,
good
evening
afternoon,
again,
members
of
the
board,
fellow
City
staff
and
members
of
the
public
joining
us
on
the
call.
Today.
My
name
is
Mitch
schnabhan
and
I'm,
a
co-compliance
supervisor
with
the
city
of
Palm
Springs
in
charge
of
the
vacation
rental
enforcement
program
on
Friday
January
6
2023
at
approximately
404
PM.
The
complaint
was
received
referencing
loud
occupants
and
music
coming
from
the
backyard
area
that
could
be
heard
beyond
the
property
line
via
the
City
app
for
the
the
report.
E
Well,
our
response
to
the
property
did
not
result
in
the
issuance
of
a
citation
for
the
reported
noise
or
music.
We
did
contact
the
occupants
at
the
front
door
and
found
that
the
property
was
in
fact
operating
as
a
vacation
rental.
The
responsible
renter
stated
that
they
had
booked
the
property
for
a
short-term
stay,
arriving
on
Thursday,
January
5th
and
departing
on
Sunday
January,
8th
via
the
booking
website
airbnb.com.
E
After
returning
to
my
workstation
after
our
response,
I
conducted
a
second,
more
detailed
check
for
a
submitted
contract.
Summary
I,
confirmed
no
contract.
Summary
was
on
file
for
the
current
guest
stay.
As
a
result
of
my
findings,
the
property
owner
was
found
to
be
in
violation
of
psmc
525070h
and
I
worked
with
officer
Gonzalez
to
draft
an
issue
Citation
ab0448
for
failing
to
submit
a
contract
summary
prior
to
guest
occupancy
to
the
owner
on
title.
E
A
couple
of
things
to
note
on
August
13th
2022,
while
conducting
follow-up
related
to
the
citation
that
was
issued
to
the
property
owner's
guest
for
music
I
spoke
with
the
owner
armeen
on
the
topic
of
contract.
Summaries
and
I
provided
specific
education
on
what
they
are,
how
to
submit
them
and
the
enforcement
action
that
could
result
in
failing
to
submit
them
and
it
kind
of
walked
her
through
the
process
of
of
of
how
to
get
that
link
on
the
city's
website.
Also
worth
noting.
E
Since
the
suspension
began
on
February
20th
2023,
we've
continued
to
receive
complaints
and
our
investigations
have
found
that
the
property
owner
has
continued
to
operate
as
a
vacation
rental
in
violation
of
her
suspension.
As
recently
as
two
weeks
ago,
the
Airbnb
advertisement
was
still
available
and
it
request
to
book
a
short-term
stay
was
met
with
an
invitation,
a
book
from
the
host
by
by
one
of
our
one
of
our
officers.
D
Just
further,
to
give
some
estimation
on
the
attachments
that
are
provided
in
the
staff
report
and
attachment
six
you'll
see
that
we
attached
quite
a
few
vacational
newsletters,
where
we
email
these
out
to
any
subscriber
to
our
our
email
subscription
list.
Are
these
newsletters
specifically
touch
base,
at
least
at
some
point,
to
the
requirement
of
submitting
contract
summaries?
These
are
attached
for
your
review
as
well.
D
We
did
pull
up
an
email
address
for
the
owner
to
see
if
this
only
was
in
the
subscription
service
to
received
these
letters,
and
they
are
subscribed
to
our
mass
email
subscription
program
that
we
use
here
and
see
so
from
the
city
stance.
We
do
show
that
at
the
time
that
these
meetings,
let
us
know
the
house
it
would
have
went
to
that
email
address,
provided
at
that
time,.
K
A
A
The
I
think
the
reason
the
appellant
is
stating
that
they're
appealing
is
that
they
were
never
sorry
I'm
trying
to
get
back
to
it.
So
I
can
read
it
in
their
words.
Yeah,
oh
yeah
I
was
never
notified
of
this
new
rule
by
any
sort
of
communication.
So
Patrick,
is
it
your
position
that
they
were
receiving
these
emails
or
at
least
to
the
email
address
you
had
on
file
for
them
and
then
the
second
part
of
my
question
is
since
this
was
a
valid
vacation
rental
permit.
A
A
So
while
they
weren't
cited
for
it,
there
were
years
of
not
submitting
contract
summaries.
That's
right
all
right!
Thank
you.
Anybody
else
have
anything
else
all
right
at
this
point,
I
would
like
to
open
up
the
appeal
hearing.
The
appellant
will
be
invited
to
speak
for
up
to
10
minutes.
Any
members
of
the
public
who
desire
to
speak
on
this
appeal
hearing
shall
have
up
to
three
minutes
to
speak.
A
A
B
A
A
D
Of
this
is
a
great
question
because
the
situation
has
produced
this
I
believe
Code
Compliance
officers
had
issued
operating
with
a
rental
certificate
violation.
It's
kind
of
a
new
A
New
Path
was
we
haven't
came
across
this
before
is
finding
someone
that
was
suspended,
operating
that's
a
big
during
your
suspension,
and
so
inevitably
we
went
the
route
to
issue.
Then
the
five
thousand
dollar
violation
and
a
permanent
ineligibility
operator
application
and
say.
H
But
again
we're
starting
an
administrative
land,
and
maybe
this
is
a
City
Attorney
question
with
respect
to
what
you
know.
We
sit
here,
and
we
do
this
stuff
with
good
faith,
that
this
ordinance
was
written
and
we're
trying
to
uphold
it
and
you're
doing
the
good
work
in
your
office
and
someone
who
'll
use
this
word
blatantly
seemingly
operating
without
care,
for
what
the
rules
are
and
what's
our
ability
to
do,
enforcement
I
mean
issuing
one
citation
after
another
when
this
person
doesn't
care,
seems
kind
of
silly
I.
D
Mean
I
can
also
further
yeah.
We
do
see
cases
where
they,
it's
not
one
of
the
rules
that
were
you
know.
Criminal
valuation
is
not
about
a
city
and
where
the
Judgment
are
found
by
the
board,
and
we
have
sent
the
big
matter
up
to
us.
The
returning
for
more
thorough
investigation
and
strong
enforcement
with
regards
to
Solutions
assists
and
other
remedies
that
City
driven
might
have
that
we
don't
have
at
death.
D
Yeah
I
would
say
that
the
city
does
have
you
know
further
Avenues
to
pursue
compliance.
Should
you
know,
should
they
continue
to
not
apply
it?
I
do
think
you
know
you
need
to
exhaust
the
penalties
in
in
the
code,
so
it
would
be
here
the
suspension,
assuming
you
know
they
continue
to
operate
without
permit
actual
suspension
that
it's
the
burning
knowledgeability
and
the
further
fines
at
that
point.
If
they
continue
to
no
longer
combine
as
Patrick
mentioned,
you
know
we
have
other
options.
You
know
we
can
issue
these
into
this.
D
H
A
weird
question:
does
the
city
have
the
ability
to
tell
Airbnb
and
VRBO,
and
any
other
like
like
platforms,
that
this
is
not
it
shouldn't
be
there?
Does
that
make
sense
like
it?
It
functions
primarily
I
would
think
by
virtual
people
finding
it
am
I
going
in
a
complete
wrong
direction
about
how
this
works,
because
we
do
this
stuff
and
I
don't
want
to
feel
like
it's
doesn't
work.
D
Yeah
I'm
certain
that
we
can
reach
out
to
Airbnb
and
give
them
a
concern
that
an
advertisement
is
operating.
You
know
from
a
violation
of
our
code
now
from
a
legal
perspective.
I'd
have
a
different
attorney
says:
can
we
make
them
stop
allow
someone
to
put
an
advertisement
up
there
without
it
being
on
Minnesota
I
had
to
refer
to
that
question.
D
A
Thank
you.
We
will
move
on
next
item
on
the
agenda
number
five
concerning
the
property
at
2303
North,
Magnolia
Road.
This
is
an
appeal
of
a
five
thousand
dollar
fine,
an
administrative
decision
that
Eddie
captivani
and
I
apologize.
I
can
oxenion
I
apologize.
If
I
said
your
name
incorrectly
is
permanently
ineligible
to
operate
a
vacation
rental
in
the
city
of
Palm
Springs
board
secretary.
Could
you
please
ensure
that
the
city
staff
and
the
appellant
understand
that
their
testimony
is
under
oath?

Yesterday
evening,
chair
Vice,
chair
and
board
members
City
staff
residents
on
a
call
in
the
conference

this
evening.
My

Science,
and
we

received
a

for
you
to
set
their
evening
is
second
board.
Regarding
the
property
located
at
2303
North
Magnolia
Road,
it
was
found
that
this
property
was
advertising
and
operating
a
vacation
rental
without
a
vocational
certificates
as
a
violation
date
of
January
14th
2023..
K
D
Yes,
good
evening,
members
of
the
board,
fellow
City
staff,
members
of
the
public,
my
name
is
Jason
Whitaker
code,
compliance
officer
with
the
city
of
Palm
Springs
on
Saturday
January,
14
2023,
while
inducting
a
review
of
the
available
rentals
listings
on
the
web-based
platform.
Airbnb.Com
I
came
across
an
advertisement
in
the
ranch
Club
Estates
neighborhood
of
Palm
Springs
title
Palm,
Springs
Gateway,
which
can
be
found
as
attachment
number
six
in
the
sap
report.
D
While
reviewing
the
advertisement
and
stated
that
the
entire
four-bedroom
home
was
being
offered
for
it
to
turn
guests,
I
was
unable
to
find
a
city
or
ID
number
on.
The
advertisement
is
required
for
a
registered
vacation
rental
property,
so
I
reviewed
the
photos
contained
within
the
ad
and
I
was
able
to
I
positively
Identify
the
property
address
as
2303
North
Magnolia
Road
upon
my
review
of
the
city's
vacation
rental
registration
records,
I
confirmed
that
the
property
identified
did
not
hold
a
valid
vacation
rental
certificate.
D
My
message
stated:
hi
there
looking
to
book
for
my
birthday
weekend,
January
27
7th,

I,
wanted
to
ask
if
the
pool
can
be
heated
or
in
the
spot,
at
least,
if
not
not
a
deal.
Breaker
also
does
the
kitchen
have
pots
and
hands
in
case
we
decide
to
cook
dinner
there
thanks
the

to
my
inquiry
with

the
following
unique

hello:
yes,

I'm.
Sorry,
the

will
be
an
additional

of

D
D
As
a
result
of
my
findings
contained
within
the
advertisement,
the
unique
response
to
my
inquiry,
as
well
as
the
host
annotation
to
book
it
to
United
States
I,
found
out
the
property
located
at
2303.
Magnolia

was
in
violation
of

a

All

All

the

Can
you
please
begin
the
public
testimony
period?
Yes,.
M
Hi,
my
name
is
talene
I'm,
actually
Eddie's
daughter,
I'm,
the
one
that
helped
my
dad
put
the
listing
on
Airbnb
to
begin
with.
I
had
no
idea
that
you
needed
any
kind
of
certificate
or
permit
to
rent
the
property.
We've
been
using
this
property
as
a
vacation
home
for
just
our
family,
going
there
like
almost
every
weekend,
and
we
were
not
aware
that
we
needed
any
kind
of
certificate.
M
Lately,
we
haven't
been
able
to
use
our
property
as
much
as
we
would
love
to.
So
we
discussed
that
we
wanted
to
put
it
out
for
rent,
since
we
weren't
being
able
to
use
it
and
I
put
it
on
Airbnb,
not
knowing
that
you
needed
any
kind
of
permit
or
anything
and
I
will
stop
by
Airbnb
or
anything
to
notify
that
you
needed
anything
and
as
soon
as
I
got
the
notice
from
the
city
of
Palm,
Springs
I
immediately
removed
the
ad.
M
It
was
not
on
there
for
that
long,
because
I
was
just
testing
it
out.
I
had
no
idea
what
I
was
doing
to
be
honest
with
you.
We
just
wanted
to
see
how
it
would
go,
but
as
soon
as
I
found
out
that
we
needed
a
certificate,
we
removed
it
and
we
have
not
rented
it
ever.
We've
never
made
any
money
on
it.
It
was
the
first
time
I
ever
listed.
It
I
would
love
to
see
if
there's
any
way,
we
can
appeal
it
because,
honestly,
it
was
an
innocent
mistake.
M
We
had
no
idea
honestly
what
we
were
doing,
because
it
was
the
first
time
we
were
putting
it
out
for
rent
because
we've
been
using
it
for
my
parents,
I've
been
using
it
my
sister's
kids
and
everything
so
we've
been
using
it
with
the
family,
so
we
would
greatly
appreciate
it
if
you
could
consider
us
and
somehow
try
to
consider
our
appeal.
Thank
you
very
much.
D
You
know
our
administrative
regulation
that
would
bring
places
to
find
an
operation
as
a
vacation
that
doesn't
include
that
way.

Foreign.
K
A
G
D
A
M
I
mean
no
not
really
because
I
thought
maybe
I
can
just
post
it
and
then
because
I
saw
other
people.
The
only
thing
that
I
saw
was
that
other
people
elicited
and
to
see
how
much
it
was
going
for.
But
that's
the
only
thing
like
I
was
trying
to
compare
other
houses
to
our
house
to
see
how
much
it
would
go
for
and
then
that's
why
I
posted
it
just
to
see
if
what
the
comparison
was
to
our
houses.
But
I
have
no
experience
on
renting.
A
C
D
H
Yeah,
that's
a
mistake:
it's
an
expensive
mistake
and
that's
stinks,
but
unfortunately
the
rules
here
and
obviously
these
folks
will
live
here
all
the
time.
You
know
we
have
a
second
property.
You
should
kind
of
engage
in
that
place,
that
you
have
that
property
and
now
with
preaching,
but
like
kind
of
important,
because
this
is
the
kind
of
mistake
you
can
make
and
so
it's
a
bummer.
A
Agrees
with
you
all
are
saying.
The
other
thing
I
would
add,
is
that
I
do
know
from
experience
that
when
you
set
up
an
ad
because
the
city
has
worked
with
Airbnb
Airbnb
prompts
you
to
say
I,
don't
remember
what
the
verbiage
is,
but
it
is
something
to
the
effect
of.
If
you
put
in
the
properties
in
Palm,
Springs
Airbnb
will
prompt,
you
saying,
make
sure
you're
in
compliance.
A
A
Right,
thank
you.
You
will
get
an
official
notification
from
the
city
again.
This
would
not
preclude
you
from
renting
on
the
city's
definition
of
long
term,
which
I
believe
is
greater
than
28
nights
and
thank
everyone
for
their
time
and
effort.
On
this
case,
we
will
move
on
next
item
on
the
agenda.
It's
number
six
that
concerns
the
property
at
544,
North,
Monterey
Road.
A
B
We
do
have
Senator
David
from
City
South
in
person.
Anyone
on
Zoom
who
desires
testified
as
a
pillar
hearing
I
do
the
laws
of
perjury.
If
you
choose
to
speak,
you
hereby
accept
and
acknowledge
that
your
testimony
shall
be
the
true
of
the
whole
truth
and
nothing
about
the
truth.
And
when
you
have
the
account.
D
Yes,
good
evening,
chair,
Vice,
chair
board
members,
City
staff
residents
on
a
call
and
an
accomplishment
this
evening
my
name
is
Patrick
Clifford
with
the
Department
of
special
program
compliance
and
we
oversee
the
vacation
program
here
in
the
city
of
Palm
Springs
California
this
evening,
as
a
staff
report
really
into
the
property
located
at
544
North
Monterey
Road,
careful
experience.
Some
background
on
this
property
is
that
the
department
of
special
program
compliance
did
receive
an
application
for
registration
certificate
on
January
3rd
2023.
D
D
The
Code
office
will
get
put
in
specific
language
in
their
in
their
email,
stating
that
this
does
not
give
approval
to
operates
or
advertise.
We
our
code
offs,
are
starting,
including
that
in
our
message,
because
we
were
receiving
feedback
that
that
might
have
been
communicated,
that
it
was
an
approval
to
start
operating
at
that
point,
and
so
I
don't
know
relative
time
when
they
started
putting
that
message
in,
but
the
code
officer
that
does
simply
the
safety
inspections
has
that
as
a
generic
test.
D
That's
in
his
safety
inspections
also
that
gets
communicated
to
an
email
address.
That's
provided
to
the
city
staff
in
their
application
and
on
their
safety
inspection
form,
which
is
a
form
that
our
code
compliance
office,
abusive
contact,
the
designated
contact
that
would
be
in
attendance
for
that
safety,
inspection.

you

Palm,
Springs
officer,
Jacob
Gonzalez
was
the
issuing
officer,
unfortunately
couldn't
be
here
tonight.
E
While
reviewing
the
advertisement
is
stated
that
the
entire
four
bedroom
home
was
being
offered
for
up
to
eight
guests
with
a
minimum
stay
of
three
nights
officer,
Gonzales
could
not
find
the
city
ID
number
listed
as
required
for
a
registered
vacation
rental
property.
So
you
reviewed
the
photos
within
the
ad
and
positively
identified
the
property
address
as
544
North
Monterey
Road.
E
Reviewing
the
city's
vacation
rental
registration
records
confirmed
that
the
property
identified
did
not
hold
a
vacation
rental
registration
certificate
officer.
Gonzalez
then
sent
a
message
via
the
airbnb.com
contact
host
feature
inquiring
about
a
four
night
stay
arriving
on
Monday,
February
13th
and
departing
Friday
February
17th,
and
the
message
was
hello.
I
was
looking
to
book
for
about
a
week
in
the
middle
of
February.
I
didn't
see
anything
on
the
ad
concerning
small
pets.
Chihuahua
I
was
wondering
if
you
had
any
restrictions,
not
a
deal
breaker.
If
we
can't
bring
her.
E
The
host
Ike
responded
to
the
requested
four
nights
day
with
the
following
unique
response:
hello,
Raphael,
this
home
is
an
animal
free
home.
If
you
can
leave
your
pup
at
home,
then
welcome
officer.
Gonzalez
responded
back.
Oh
no
problem,
not
an
issue
for
us
at
all,
and
the
host
responded
by
sending
officer
Gonzalez
an
invitation
to
book
the
requested
four
night
stay.
This
Exchange
in
the
invitation
to
book
are
included
in
the
staff
report
as
attachment
number
six.
E
As
a
result
of
the
findings
contained
within
the
advertisement,
the
unique
response
to
officer
Gonzalez's
inquiry,
as
well
as
the
invitation
to
book
the
requested
four
night
stay.
We
found
that
the
property
located
at
544
North
Monterey,
was
in
violation
of
psmc
525048
operating
a
vacation
rental
without
a
vacation
rental
registration
certificate
and
issued
citation
ab0464
to
the
property
owner,
Untitled,
marciela,
Solano.
So
again,
to
reiterate
the
specific
Elements
which
resulted
in
us
finding
that
the
property
was
in
violation
number
one.
E
The
property
was
advertised
on
Airbnb
as
being
able
to
book
the
entire
home
for
a
minimum
of
three
nights
which
can
be
found
on
page
number,
26,
I,
believe
of
the
staff
report
as
part
of
attachment
number
five
without
a
vacation
rental
registration
certificate
and
number
two.
The
host
Ike
interacted
with
officer
Gonzalez
via
the
contact
host
feature
and
displayed
clear
intent
to
accept
and
facilitate
our
request
to
book
a
four
night
stay
by
sending
the
invitation
to
book.
E
Reg
States,
an
owner
agent
or
any
other
representative
of
the
owner,
interacts
with
another
party,
whether
directly
or
indirectly,
through
personal
or
digital
electronic
contact,
with
the
intent
to
provide
availability
of
the
property
for
occupancy
of
28
days
or
less
or
to
complete
a
rental
and
or
reservation
of
the
property
for
future
occupancy
of
28
days
or
less.
So
that
will
conclude
what
I
have
to
present
and
I
will
hand
it
back
to
Patrick,
but
I'll
be
able
to
answer
any
questions
that
the
board
may
have.
Thank
you.
A
D
Sort
of
a
silly
Patrick
did
you
just
confirm,
you
said
I,
don't
remember
who
was
corresponding
with
these
folks,
but
it
was
going
back
and
forth.
There
was
a
question
about
whether
or
not
they
could
rent
it
and
there
was
an
email
that
was
supposedly
have
gone
back,
saying
that
you
can't
rent
it
until
you
get
your
permit.
D
Yes,
I
believe
with
respect
and
safe
inspection
that
I
mentioned
earlier.
So
what
happens
is
during
the
application
process?
There's
a
form
that
the
applicant
will
fill
out,
what
we
call
as
a
safety
inspection
form.
They
provide
information
related
to
the
property
and
a
contact
who
they
feel,
if
not
themselves
will
be
able
to
meet
the
code
officer
of
the
property
to
complete
the
safety
inspection
and
they
provide
a
phone
number.
So
the
code
officer
can
reach
out
on
schedule
and
an
email
address.
D
That's
provided
to
email,
the
results
too,
and
so
when
the
safety
inspection
is
completed,
whether
it's
a
pass
or
fail,
a
copy
of
that
result
will
be
emailed
to
that
specific
email
that
was
listed
on
that
one,
and
we
did
look
at
the
email
that
was
provided
on
the
application.
There
was
a
Gmail
account
that
was
provided.
H
H
D
D
H
Then
I'm,
just
what
I'm
getting
at
I
just
think
you
figured
this
out
where
I
do
that,
then
I
don't
know
what
a
reasonable
amount
of
time
is
for
somebody
to
wait,
but
it
seems
like
then
we're
going
in
to
like
check
if
these
people
like
it
feels
like
a
setup
somehow
and
I.
Don't
know
if
that's
inappropriate
for
me
today
but
I
feel
like
you
know
what
I
mean
there
should
be.
H
Some
I
don't
know
indication
if
that's
possible,
maybe
I'm
bananas
and
I'm
gonna
get
yelled
at
but
like
you
know,
because
I
see
what
they
did
and
I
know
it's
not
right
and
I
get
that,
but
I
also
see
sort
of
human
nature
and
I.
Just
wonder
if
there's
some
way
to
improve
what
we're
doing
we
can
I,
don't
know
what
else
to
say
about.
D
Yeah
you
know,
one
thing
is:
is
that
we
have
shortened
that
time
frame
from
90
days,
so
we
do.
We
do
communicate
that
it
could
take
up
the
90
days
and
not
to
advertise
or
operate
from
them.
You
know
with
you
know,
after
the
latest
ordinance
that
was
adopted
in
November.
You
know
he's
even
probably
thinking
about
100
days.
H
No
and
I
understand
that
there's
like
a
period
of
time
and
then
people
should
do
with
the
right
thing.
There's
no
question:
I
don't
disappear
that
the
city's
got
to
do
what
they
ought
to
do.
I,
don't
know
it
feels
like
they're
shh
I,
don't
like
that
could
be
more.
Maybe
communication,
not
that
you
didn't
say:
hey,
don't
operate
because
you
did
so
anyway.
I'm,
not
gonna,
repeat
myself.
A
So
I
said
one
question:
Patrick
is
it
in
our
packet
or
maybe
you
can
kind
of
give
us
a
little
bit
more
information
about
what
was
included
with
the
email?
That
said,
they
passed
the
inspection,
but
you
said
that
whoever
the
officer
was
that
did
the
inspection
you
that
they
have
started.
Adding
a
note
about
not
advertising
or
not
is
is
that.
G
A
D
A
A
Okay,
at
this
time,
I'd
like
to
open
the
appeal
hearing,
the
accountant
will
be
invited
to
speak
for
up
to
10
minutes
any
member
of
the
public
who
desires
to
speak
on
this
appeal
hearing
shall
have
up
to
three
minutes
to
speak.
If
any
member
of
the
public
testifies,
the
appellant
will
be
invited
to
provide
a
rebuttal
for
up
to
two
additional
minutes
for
secretary.
Could
you
please
begin
the
public
testimony
period.
J
B
K
J
J
So,
yes,
the
email
is
very
clear
in
regards
to
not
posting
our
Airbnb
or
not
listing
our
property.
The
issue
here
is
the
fact
that
it's
an
email
that
went
that
didn't
go
directly
to
me.
It
went
to
our
agent
something
so
severe.
Something
with
such
huge
consequences
got
foiled
by
going
to
a
junk.
Folder
I
did
not
receive
this
email.
Until
yesterday,
when
I
asked
my
my
my
house
manager.
J
J
The
only
thing
that
I
was
aware
is
that
we
have
passed,
and
our
biggest
thing
was
that
we
had
converted
a
garage
into
a
fourth
bedroom,
and
so
when
we
got
the
notice
that
we
had
passed
into
our
fourth
bedroom,
that
was
pretty
much
it
so
I
figured
well.
You
know
we
could
start
taking
pictures,
we
could
start
listing,
but
it
was.
It
was
never
with
the
with
the
understanding
that
it
was
a
five
thousand
dollar
fine
or
we
were
going
to
get
banned
forever
to
list
our
property.
J
So
you
know
I'm
I
know
it's
a
mistake
and
I
know:
there's
rules
from
everyone
else
that
I've
heard
rules
or
rules
and
they
can't
be
broken
I
get
that,
but
we
did
follow
them.
It
was
a.
It
was
a
simple.
It
was
a
mistake.
It
was
a
junk
folder
mistake
had
I
received
it,
my
emails
were
attached
to
my
application.
Had
I
received
it.
None
of
this
would
have
happened.
J
A
L
You
very
much
so
I'm
not
going
to
comment
on
anything
about
all
the
notifications
and
everything
gets,
but
there
was
one
specific
question
asked
by
one
of
the
board
members,
which
is:
what
was
the
date
of
the
application.
What
was
the
date
of
the
inspection
and
what
was
the
date?
Was
it
the
certificate
issued?
L
K
A
L
Simply
that
one
of
the
board
members
asked
about
what
was
the
interval
time
from
when
the
house
inspection
happened
to
when
you
got
issued,
your
permit
and
I
believe
her
concern
was
how
big
a
gap
in
time
is.
That
is
that
two
weeks
is
that
two
months
you
know
and
was
a
valid
question
yeah
and
the
city
has
the
data
to
answer
that.
Okay,.
J
J
You
know,
I
started
taking
pictures.
I
started
working
on
on
the
wording
as
everyone
else,
because,
as
as
we
had
mentioned
before
we're
going
into
business,
you
know
I
didn't.
Since
we
have
passing
I
figured,
it
was
just
going
to
be
a
rubber
stamp,
we're
good
to
go.
There
was
no
need.
I.
I
didn't
know
that
we
couldn't
start.
J
You
know
renting
the
place
or
at
least
starting
to
talk
to
guests,
the
other.
You
know
as
a
site.
Note
too,
you
know
I
think
in
the
first
person
that
that
was
then
you
had
interviewed
there's
like
three
times
that
they've
had
you
know,
penalties
right.
So
you
know
how
I
I
don't
get,
how
one
house
can
have
up
to
three
times
problems
and
and
it's
okay,
to
continue
to
do
business
when
we're
just
starting
it.
We
made
a
simple
mistake
and
now
we're
banned
for
life.
D
Yes,
so
the
difference
is
one
one's
registered
with
this
chance
to
operating
and
by
registering
and
complying
the
agree.
That
is
off
all
specific
rules
that
are
defined
in
our
initial
code
having
reviolations
within
a
12-month
period.
The
city
manager
does
suspend
that
vacation
from
operating
for
a
period
of
two
years.
Any
further
action
lead
to
eradication
of
the
vacation
around
certificate
so
and
those
those
valuations
are
assessed
because
they,
by
participating
in
the
vocational
programs.
They
agree
that
they
will
follow.
D
Support
rules
in
the
city,
the
other
violation
which
is
being
brushed
in
this
evening
was
still
operating
and
they
don't
have
certificates.
And
now
we
hope
that
the
ordinance
is
strong
and
has
a
strict
rules
regarding
the
inability
to
operate
education
around
further
and
that's
designed
because
you
know-
and
maybe
in
this
case
it
was
not
doing
anything
intent
to
purchase
rules.
But
there
are
bad
academ
go
around
the
city
and
thus
that
it's
it's
designed
to
just
stop
being
unregistered
activity
positions.
A
D
Regarding
thinking
that
that
notification
is
something
that
grants
permission
to
operate,
I
did
want
to
verify
that
on
the
application
itself,
it
does
state
that
they
are
not
authorized
to
advertise
or
otherwise
operating
vacation
on
their
own
to
the
receipt
specifically
not
race
throughout
the
popularization
from
the
department
and
that
administrative
fines
and
penalties
worldwide
and
that's
on
the
application
itself.
The
email
from
the
safety
inspection
as
I
mentioned,
is
just
an
edit
an
additive,
an
added.
D
A
J
So
may
I
explain
so
we
we're
we're
looking
at
about
two
hours
away,
so
the
person
that
we
had
hired
our
house
manager
that
was
going
that
met
with
the
inspector,
because
I
wasn't
able
to
go.
Ignore
my
mother.
She
met
with
the
inspector
we
passed,
so
the
report
went
to
her
to
her
Gmail
as
I
State
I,
don't
use
a
Gmail
account.
It
went
to
her
junk
folder
because
it
comes
from
the
city
or
because
she
has
a
a
strong
filter.
J
So
the
only
thing
that
we
knew
at
that
moment
was
that
we
have
passed
in
that
garage
conversion
that
turned
into
a
bedroom
have
been
have
been
passed,
I've
been
accepted.
That's
all
we
knew,
and
so
until
yesterday,
where
we're
discussing
about
today,
we're
like
hey,
you
know
what
they're
stating
that
that,
on
that
package
that
you
sent
that
they're,
stating
that
we
received
an
email,
we
go
back
and
she
checks
and
sure
enough.
It's
there
and
that's
what
I'm
saying
for
something
so
drastic
for
something
so
expensive.
J
J
You
know
what
it's
it's
hard
to
read
when
I
I
don't
know
you're
right,
maybe
I
should
have
read
the
fine
print
on
the
first
application
when
I
submitted
my
all
of
our
documents,
but
I
thought
that
by
passing
it
that
was
meaning
all
we
had
to
do
was
get
the
rubbish
down.
I
mean
I,
didn't
I
didn't
list
the
property
before
our
inspection.
J
You
know,
I
didn't
do
that.
So
I
thought
that
by
passing
the
inspection,
it
was
just
a
matter
of
you
guys
just
signing
off
on
it.
That's
it
it
wasn't
that
we
were
trying
to
circumvent
it.
Wasn't
that
we
were
trying
to
cheat
the
city,
we
did
everything
from
A
to
Z,
with
that
house
brand
new
pool,
just
everything,
put
tons
of
money
in
there
ready
for
this
and
and
to
have
this
ruined
by
a
junk
folder
just
is
unfair.
H
J
J
H
H
C
A
C
J
She
has
issues
health
issues
and
that's
why
pump
Palm
Springs
because
of
its
dry
climate
is
a
perfect,
but
she
has
her
family
here
in
Los
Angeles.
So
it's
going
to
be
a
back
and
forth,
and
so
the
the
short-term
rental
was
a
perfect,
a
perfect
fit
for
us
or
for
her
where
she
can
subsidize
a
mortgage
and
still
use
a
property.
A
long-term
rental
does
not
benefit
us
in
any
way
and
right
now,
honestly,
with
the
way
the
market
is
she'll.
J
A
A
So
is
it
safe
to
assume,
then
that
you
are
the
one
that
puts
the
the
person
that
was
going
to
be
your
property
manager
you're,
the
one
that
put
that
person's
contact
info
down
as
the
contact
for
the
city?
Yes,
okay
and
yeah
I'm
trying
to
think
if
so,
I
guess
that
I
don't
have
any
other
questions.
I
guess!
Thank
you.
J
I
I,
don't
I'm
not
here,
to
throw
anyone
under
the
bus.
She
also
didn't
see
that
email.
She
like
I,
said
it's.
You
know
if
you
I
mean
you
guys,
we
all.
We
all
have
emails
right
and
there's
certain
emails
from
certain
entities
that
just
are
inboxes
won't
accept.
Yours
is
one
of
them.
Yours
goes
to
a
junk
folder
right
so
because
he
went
to
a
junk
folder.
She
wasn't
aware,
because
it's
her
job
right,
it's
in
her
best
interest
to
give
me
all
the
information
possible.
So
has
she
seen
it?

Comments
for
discussion
well,
I
was
just
gonna,
say,
I'm,
not
sure
what
Ashland's
question
was
with
regard
to
the
time
period,
but
is
it
I
may
have
the
time
loan,
but
from
the
time
the
inspection
was
approved
to
the
time
they
advertised
was
really
short.
So
we're
not
talking
about.
It
was
an
inordinate
amount
of
time
before
he
got
through.
Shipping
is.
F
F
H
I
I,
just
I
struggle
and
I
know:
we've
had
this
issue
before
and
that
this
is
a
process.
It
takes
up
a
certain
amount
of
time.
People
have
to
be
patient.
People
have
to
understand
every
step
of
the
way
we
keep
trying
to
improve
this
process.
As
we
come
up
right
with
appeals
that
indicate
a
way
to
have
the
city.
Do
it
a
little
better?
You
know
no
knock
on
how
they
do
it
now,
it's
really
hard
stuff
to
to
implement.
H
Well,
I
I
suppose
earlier
I
would
I
would
say
they're
looking
for
all
kinds
of
violations.
There's
many
violations
in
the
city
that
we've
seen
where
people
have
never
even
applied,
don't
understand
anything
about
the
vacation
rental
owners.
Don't
care
to
show
up
to
other
people
like
whatever
there's
millions
of
violations,
because
there's
lots
and
lots
of
homes.
F
H
Well,
what
I'm
saying
is
like
there's
lots
of
opportunities,
and
this
just
it
doesn't
I,
don't
know
how
to
articulate
what
I'm
saying
better
than
than
it.
It
could
feel
as
if
the
city
and
the
compliance
team
knows
this
person's
in
the
in
this
middle
space
and
I
know
that
there's
no
rule
around
waiting
for
this
middle
space,
but
it's
not
as
if
they
were
I
I,
don't
know
it
does
feel.
A
A
I
hear
what
you're
saying
and,
from
my
perspective,
what
I
didn't
hear
was
they
were
targeting
this
property.
What
I
heard
was
is
that
the
the
compliance
officer
was
doing
his
normal
yeah
yeah
perusing
of
the
portals,
and
he
came
across
a
property
that
didn't
list
a
permit.
He
then
investigated
that
and
found.
K
H
D
G
D
While
sensoring
pending
we're
going
to
turn
away
from
issuing
with
saturation,
they,
they
have
all
the
force
in
the
administrative
team.
Instead
of
remarkable
compliance
team,
we
have
an
administrative
team,
that's
processing
the
application
and
co-compliance
is
enforcement
in
this
code,
and
if
they
do
find
a
violation,
they
do
have
to
act
by
it.
Mitch.
B
B
E
Yeah
just
to
provide
some
more
insight
on
that.
So
one
of
the
things
you
know,
there's
not
a
list
of
that's
made
available
to
us
that
my
officers
are
looking
at
to
specifically
Target
individual
addresses
on
Airbnb
and
Virgo
when
a
new
advertisement
is
created,
they're
generally
promoted
towards,
like
the
larger
scale
of
Palm
Springs.
So
if
you
search
vacation
rental
stays
in
Palm,
Springs
it'll
give
you
20
listings
that
encompasses
the
entire
city,
and
so
super
hosts
and
new
properties
are
generally
promoted
to
the
top
of
those
this.
E
It's
already
been
reviewed
by
myself
and
it's
essentially
you
know,
the
elements
have
been
found
that
it's
in
violation
and
it's
a
done
deal,
and
that
is
the
only
reason
we
check
to
see
if
there's
an
application
on
file
is
to
ensure
that
we're
not
creating
a
more
confusing
situation
by
you
know
one
of
our
office
admin
staff
to
to
then
go
and
issue
a
registration
certificate.
While
this
citation
you
know
the
couple
days
that
it
takes
to
process
and
go
into
effect,
if
that
makes
sense,.
A
G
A
J
Thank
you,
I
I
know
I'm
out
of
order,
but
can
I
just
say
then.
If
if,
if
I
I
submitted
my
application
and
I
pass
the
inspection-
and
it
was
just
a
matter
of
maybe
a
few
weeks
for
us
to
give
represent-
is
there
any
way
where
we
can
pay?
Maybe
pay
the
fine
and
be
taken
back
in
consideration
like
if
we
were
already
part
of
the
short-term
rental
and
call
this
a
strike
or
a
nurse
valuation?
Unfortunately,.
A
A
And
then
last
thing
for
me
amongst
the
board,
when
somebody
fills
out
that
paperwork
and
puts
a
person
whoever
they
choose
to
be
the
point
of
communication
with
the
city.
Yeah
I
mean
that
was
somebody.
This
appellant
chose
now
the
fact
that
she's
filtering,
however,
it
is
that
her
emails
go
into
junk.
A
A
You
know
they
chose
her
as
their
agent,
their
agent
ignored,
for
whatever
reason
didn't
see,
but
eventually
found
that
email,
four
months
or
three
months
later
to
me
that
doesn't
negate
the
fact
that
the
city
reached
out
told
them.
You
passed
the
inspection,
but
that
does
not
give
you
the
right
to
advertise:
do
not
advertise
until
you
get
written
authorization
and
that
that
was
not.
That
was
not
followed
and
not
paid
attention
to.
So,
unless
there's
any
more
go
ahead.
I'm
sorry.
A
F
A
B
B
A
Right.
Thank
you.
This
again,
as
we've
said,
does
not
preclude
you
from
renting
for
what
the
city
defines
as
long-term
28
nights
or
longer.
You
will
get
an
official
notification
from
the
city
again,
I
want
to
thank
everyone
for
their
time
and
effort.
On
this
case,
we
are
going
to
move
on
to
our
final
case.
Can.

Hi
good
evening,
members
of
the
board,
my
fellow
City
staff,
members
of
the
public
present
first
night's
hearing.
My
name
is
Jason
Whitaker
I
have
a
co-compliance
officer
with
the
city
of
Palm
Springs
on
Sunday
January
15
2023,
while
conducting
a
review
of
available
rental
listings
on
the
web-based
booking
platform.
Airbnb.Com
I
came
across
an
advertisement
in
the
Vista
Norte
neighborhood
of
Palm
Springs
titled,
cheap,
modern,
Zen
Oasis,
with
pool
which
can
be
found
is
attached
at
five
in
the
staff
report.
D
D
D
Hopefully
your
friends
are
older,
wise
enough
to
celebrate
respectfully
as
a
guest
lots
of
fun
places
to
go
nearby.
Palm
Springs
always
has
a
great
energy.
Once
I
received
this
message,
I
responded
with
the
following
hi
Nicole.
Thank
you
for
the
reply.
Yes,
we
are
in
our
late
40s,
so
I
so
definitely
know
a
lot
of
parties
for
us.
D
Will
the
weather
be
warm
enough
to
use
the
pool
in
March
I
received
the
following
response
from
the
host
Nicole
great
to
know,
thanks
for
the
extra
Insight
on
your
group,
it's
in
the
mid
80s
in
March
a
really
nice
time
of
year,
great
for
sunbathing,
not
sure
you
will
want
to
go
full
swim,
but
then,
up
to
you
y'all
it's
hard
to
tell,
especially
if
you
guys
are
busy
out
doing
things
and
just
want
to
relax
we'll
start
a
bit.
It's
a
nice
option
to
have
for
sure.
D
D
As
a
result
of
my
findings
contained
within
the
advertisement,
the
unique
response
to
my
inquiry,
as
well
as
the
host
annotation
for
a
six-night
stay
I
found
the
property
located
in
2548
North
Aurora
drive.
It
was
a
violation
of
psmc
5.25.0408
operating
education,
rental
without
a
vacation,
rental
registration
certificate
and
I,
and
I
issued
administrative
citation
number
80457
to
the
property
owner
on
child
title
James
broadviewer
that
will
conclude
all
I
have
to
present
I'll
hand
it
back
over
to
Patrick
I'm
available
to
answer
any
questions.
D
A
H
G
D
A
D
A
Right,
thank
you.
At
this
time,
we'd
like
to
open
up
the
appeal
hearing,
the
appellant
will
be
invited
to
speak
for
up
to
10
minutes
any
members
of
the
public
who
desire
to
speak
on
this
appeal
hearing
shall
have
up
to
three
minutes
to
speak.
If
any
member
of
the
public
testifies,
the
appellant
will
be
invited
to
provide
a
rebuttal
for
up
to
two
additional
minutes
board
secretary.
Could
you
please
begin
the
public
testimony
period.
D
D
So
I'm
sitting
here
obviously
listening
to
the
last
four
of
these
cases
and
they
all
seem
to
be
a
little
bit
different
and
this
one
that
I'm
going
to
present
is
different
than
all
the
lovely
ones
that
we've
heard
before
there.
There
was
definitely
a
report.
There
was
definitely
some
documentation
that
was
presented,
but
I,
don't
think
the
way
it
was
presented
was
in
the
correct
light
and
what
I
mean
by
that
is
just
just
to
back
it
up
a
little
bit.
D
My
clients
are
as
a
dentist
and
his
wife
is
a
consultant
or
dentist.
They
live
in
San
Diego
area.
They
are
not
real
estate
professionals.
Initially,
they
hired
a
realtor
Nicole
to
list
this
property
for
them,
and
they
they
know
that
they
weren't
professionals
at
this,
so
they
gave
it
to
a
professional.
D
They
listed
the
property
on
the
Airbnb
site,
and
it
was
specifically
stated
that
it's
going
to
be
30-day
rentals.
If
you're,
looking
at
the
documentation,
I
I
submitted
something
earlier
this
morning,
I
don't
know
if
everybody
got
a
chance
to
look
at
it,
but
it's
basically
the
same
documentation
that
was
part
of
the
appeals
file.
D
Their
realtor
didn't
have
any
intent
to
rent
this
property
for
less
than
30
days.
The
The
Quirk
of
this
system
is
that
it
has
where
you
can
check,
availability
and
then
there's
a
drop
down
menu
and
the
drop
down
menu
said
rentals
of
six
days
or
more.
That
is
a
pre-programmed
category
in
there
that
that
nobody
from
my
client
or
their
agent,
they
didn't
set
that
it
was
just
automatically
set
for
that.
D
They
thought
that,
since
they
put
30-day
rentals,
they
were
only
going
to
get
people
that
were
inquiring
about
30-day
rentals.
If
you
go
to
the
to
the
next
page
of
that
and
another
question
that
had
been
asked
a
few
minutes
ago
as
to
how
long
the
prior
rentals
were
on
that
same
the
same
advertisement,
it
shows
the
dates
that
the
property
is
booked
up
and
it
was
booked
up
the
entire
month
from
from
January
30
to
the
left
of
January.
D
Rent
this
property
before
what
looks
like
the
6th
of
March,
because
it
was
booked
up
for
monthly
period,
so
they
had
only
ever
rented
this
place
twice
in
the
past
and
for
both
for
30-day
periods
they
they
had
applied
for
the
license.
Manuela,
the
the
wife
and
co-owner.
The
property
specifically
was
the
one
that
applied
for
the
license
and
when
she
applied
for
it
they
they
did
have
their
inspection.
D
D
D
It
was
their
agent
that
it
answered
it
and
although
the
gentleman
who
misidentified
as
Wayne,
he
says
hi
there
beautiful
I'm
looking
to
book
for
a
week
for
a
birthday
getaway
from
La
36
to
323
23
with
a
few
friends,
there
was
a
direct
response
to
his
inquiry,
but
her
her
response
never
mentions
the
dates.
Her
response
is
just
she
states
that,
though
the
pool's
not
heated,
you
know,
but
it's
fun,
there's
a
lot
of
things
to
do
in
Palm,
Springs,
but
never
says.
Yes,
those
dates
are
available
and
then
Wayne
replies
back.
D
Thank
you
for
your
reply,
we're
in
our
late
40s.
He
looks
extremely
good
for
being
the
same
way.
Hi
Nicole
we're
in
early
40s.
Will
the
weather
be
warm,
and
then
she
replies
to
that
great
to
know.
Thanks
for
the
extra
Insight,
it's
in
the
mid
80s,
you
know
during
March.
Never
never
specifically
mentioning
the
dates,
so
it's
not
clear
as
to
if
she
was
even
paying
attention
to
the
dates
she
was.
She
put
this
up
for
a
30-day
listing.
D
It
states
clearly
on
the
base
page
of
the
advertisement
that
this
is
a
30-day
listing
and
she
never
mentioned
okay
yeah.
We
can
do
it
for
a
week.
He
never
said
is
a
week,
okay
and
then
underneath
that
where
it
has
a
system
message-
and
these
are
basically
just
system
Bots,
this
is
part
of
Airbnb.
If
you
inquire
about
specific
AIDS
in
Airbnb,
it
will
give
you
those
reminders.
D
Hey,
you
can
book
this
beautiful
vet
retreat
in
Palm
Springs,
and
so
it
just
says,
Nicole
invites
you
to
book
five
guests
on
March
6th,
but
that's
just
a
generic
response.
It's
a
robot!
It's
a
generic
response
from
Airbnb.
It
was
nothing
that
Nicole
specifically
agreed
to
or
accepted
or
typed
in
on
their
own.
It's
a
system
message
underneath
that
there's
another
system
message:
it's
a
text
box
and
says:
Manuela
invited
you
to
book
their
home
and
wallet
had
no
clue.
D
What's
in
this
conversation,
she
had
no
intent
to
rent
this
place
for
for
less
than
30
days.
One
thing
I
want
to
point
out
is
we
we
had
talked
about.
There's
a
bunch
of
questions.
Hey
do
we
have
any
leeway
here
and
you
know
also.
It's
also
mentioned
like
why
you
know
why.
Why
are
we
asking
these
people
for
I
guess
I'm
going
to
use
the
word
deception?
Why
are
we
using
this
deception
and
asking
these
people
to
rent
these
rooms
when
we're
not
really
intending
on
renting
these
rooms?
D
D
If
you
go
back
to
the
first
page,
well,
actually,
I'm,
sorry
to
go
back
to
the
the
application
that
was
presented
by
by
those
Colin
Wayne
where
he
has
check-in,
he
has
checking
dates.
Check-In.
You
know
check
in
check
out
again.
This
is
all
just
populated
by
the
user.
It's
not
populated
by
the
the
host.
So
you
put
in
those
dates
because
of
the
the
work
in
the
system
where
it
was
programmed
to
six
days
and
it's
still
up
now,
but
I
think
they
clarified
it.
D
D
So
now
it's
still
up
there,
because
they're
able
to
rent
it
for
more
than
28
days,
but
now
it
stays
30
days,
but
that's
again,
that's
just
an
automated
top-down
menu.
That
was
just
a
result
of
the
agent
Nicole
and
another
question
is
probably
going
to
be
asked:
Nicole's
sip
the
Airbnb
site
on
completely
it
was
100
through
through
her.
My
clients
were
leaving
all
of
the
leasing
all
of
the
management
of
the
property
to
occur
because
they
hired
a
professional
that
was
able
to
do
it.
D
D
There
has
to
be
some
type
of
intent,
and
in
this
case
there
was
no
intent.
My
clients
had
no
intention
to
rent
this
property
for
less
than
the
30-day
period
they
did
overtly
get
the
Liberty
up
for
for
rental
or
above
the
30-day
period.
I
also
find
one
thing
that's
almost
disturbing
to
me
is:
is
the
enforcement
officer
when
asked?
Do
you
know
if
those
reviews
were
for
less
than
30
days?
Oh
yeah?
D
Well,
we're
sure
of
it,
because
there
just
wasn't
that
many
days
well,
that
review
could
have
been
from
a
month
earlier
could
have
been
from
two
months
earlier
could
have
been
their
friend
that
just
wrote
a
review
to
make.
It
seem
like
this
is
a
great
place.
I
I
don't
know,
but
it
seems
it
seems
kind
of
a
stretch
to
just
jump,
to
the
point
that
oh
yeah,
they
had
to
have
been
taken,
30
less
than
30-day
rentals
and
there's
really
just
no
evidence
about
of
that.
D
I
I
would
just
find
that
the
they
they
weren't
putting
this
property
we're
advertising
this
property
for
short-term
rentals.
At
this
point
they
were
waiting,
and
it
was
just
a
work
of
this
particular
system
that
allowed
the
enforcement
officer
to
type
in
dates
that
weren't
authorized
and
and
in
contradiction
to
the
plain
language
on
their
30-day
rentals,
so
that
that's
all
I.
A
D
There
is
only
one
advertisement
in
30
days,
there's
only
one
advertisement
but
there's
several
different
screenshots
of
the
same
advertisement,
because
you
can
so
there's
one,
that's
just
the
the
Bear
advertisement
and
then
there's
another
one.
That
was
in
the
documentation
where
the
enforcement
officer
had
typed
in
specific
dates,
and
so
it
brought
a
drop
down
screen.
But
it's
the
same
advertisement
that
did
all
the
advertisements
stress
30
days.
Yes,
absolutely
okay,
I
gave
one
thank.
H
G
G
F
A
J
A
A
Show
you
that
it's
six
day
rentals,
so
they
never
tried
to
so
yeah.
So
if,
if
it
had
been
a
30
day,
if
somebody
wanted
to
request
seven
days,
they
would
never
even
have
seen
the
ad
yeah.
So
then
my
question
is
related
to
that
who
was
responding
for
I'm.
Sorry
like
get
back
to
that
page,
who
was
doing
the
responses
for?
Was
it
Nicole
responding?
A
D
Understanding
is
she
just
wasn't
paying
attention
and
she
just
saw
somebody's
renting.
She
had
rented
it
twice
before
for
30-day
periods,
and
so
somebody
inquired
about
a
rental
and
started
asking
her
questions
about
Palm,
Springs
I
think
she
just
was
excited
yeah.
It's
a
beautiful
place,
she's
a
real
estate
agent,
so
she's
a
natural
salesperson.
It's
a
beautiful
place,
Palm
Springs
great,
so
many
things
to
do.
I,
don't
think
she
even
paid
attention
because
she
never
mentioned
the
date.
She
never
mentioned
anything
about.
A
Because
they
would
have,
she
would
have
gotten
a
message
from
the
portal
that
said,
somebody
wants
to
rent
it
from
this
date
to
that
date
and
then
that
the
compliance
officer
actually
put
those
dates
in
there
and
again
that's
twice
she
overlooked.
If
you
will
the
dates
so
but
I
well,
she
would
have
gotten
a.
She
would
have
gotten
a
notification
from
the
portal.
A
A
Again,
that
was
just
generated
by
the
system,
so
I
I,
suppose
it
is
instant
book.
Okay
and
the
reason
I
asked
that
is
again
that's
a
conscious
decision.
Every
homeowner
has
the
right
to
choose
one
or
the
other
if
it
is
set
up
as
a
six
day
or
whatever.
That
number
was
less
than
30
and
it's
instant
book.
Somebody
can
do
a
reservation.
A
D
A
D
But
yes-
and
it
doesn't
allow
that
on
other
30
days
as
we
would
say
that
they
wouldn't
even
be
able
to
select
with
a
short-term
State
because
they
would
be
great
out
or
would
get
in
that
message
saying
that
minimum
state
is
not
Max.
But
in
that
respect
so
code
with
the
fact
that
they're
able
to
make
federal
states.
A
G
A
D
A
A
H
H
D
D
As
far
as
that's
where
the
department
of
issue-
that's
one
thing
I
can
say,
is
that
I'm,
a
group
of
that
we
came
from,
but
I
need
to
look
at
that
paper
more
to
see
where
it
was
written
on
and
why
it
was
written
on.
But
I'm
kind
of
you
know
thinking
that
it
could
have
been
the
reason
that
that's
a
decimated
plan
that
your
limited
edition,
the
deadline
that
we
set
up
so
whether
it
was
90
degrees,
45
days.
A
A
F
C
F
Thinking,
there's
an
intent
to
rent
short-term
short-term.
If
you
applied
for
a
permit
and
so
and
I,
don't
think
and
I'm
going
to
use
this.
You
know
strong
language,
I,
don't
think
intense
part
of
the
crime
here,
I,
don't
think
it's
an
intent!
Crime
I
think
it's!
You
have
a
effective
agent
who
doesn't
know
the
rules
doesn't
know
Palm
Springs
and
you
give
that
to
that
person
and
let
him
or
her
do
your
work,
and
that
seems
like
perhaps
not
the
best
thing
to
have
done
so.
I
I
think.
F
C
Good
answer:
okay,
in
every
case,
where
there's
a
permit
issue
and
30-day
rentals,
follow
they
never
intended
to
or
attempted
filing
for
the
the
right
to
get
a
permit
is
not
advertising
an
intent,
short
rental.
They
never
did
anything
except
long-term
rentals.
The
fact
that
they
were
applying
and
considering
short-term
Wells
is
not
going.
It.
F
A
The
ordinance
the
ordinance
states
that
advertising
is
operating
that,
in
the
the
information
that's
in
front
of
us,
is
that
the
compliance
officer
requested
a
short
term
and
whether
it
was
through
instant
book
or
they,
they
accepted
the
request.
If
it
was
on
inquiry
only
they.
If
you
want
to
talk
about
intent,
they
intended
to
accept
that
short-term
reservation.
F
C
G
C
D
See
originally,
when
I
looked
at
the
ad
I
said
yeah
30
days,
yeah,
that
makes
sense,
but
the
fact
that
they
did
that
there
was
a
application
for
short-term
rental,
that
kind
of
throws
up
a
red
flag
and
it's
kind
of
it.
It's
very
it's
kind
of
difficult
to
think
about
this
one.
It's
I
see
both
your
points,
but
then
I.
D
A
A
We
also
have
you
know
that
that
paperwork
stated
yeah
do
not
advertise
until
you
get
written
authorization
and
that's
you
know
for
me.
We
have
been
through
this
so
many
times
with
very
similar
facts
that
you
know
once
the
way
the
ordinance
is
written.
Advertising
is
the
same
as
operating
based
on
the
city's
definition,
and
when
you
accept
an
inquiry
for
one
week,
you
are
accepting
a
short
term
whether
it
the
city,
doesn't
care
if
they
actually
stayed
there.
If
there
was
money
that
changed
hands,
the
city
doesn't
care
about
that.
A
B
C
K
A
G
A
B
K
D
D
D
You
might
consider
that
it
seems
like
the
applicant
had,
you
know,
actual
notice,
but
they
maybe
have
actual
notice
of
the
wrong
time.
So
I
definitely
think
you
are
within
your
discretion
to
reconsider
this
item.
If
you
would
like
to
do
so,
I
am
not
concerned
with,
and
just
to
clarify
on
the
record
I'm.
D
G
H
D
Heard
the
city
so
I
would
advise
that
you
redo
the
entire
hearing,
because
you
know
to
the
extent
that
the
city
staff
tested
by
you
know
we
would
have.
We
would
want
appellant
to
you
know
to
be
able
to
fully
hear
that
testimony
and
respond
to
it.
So
if
you
do
decide
to
reconsider
the
hate
case,
I
would
advise
you
to
do.
B
A
Right,
we
will
hear
this
case
again,
so
the
item
number
four
that
we
are
rehearing
concerns
the
property
at
3149
East,
Ventura
Road.
It
is
an
appeal
of
a
twenty
five
hundred
dollar
fine
and
an
administrative
decision
for
a
two-year
suspension
of
the
vacation
rental
registration
certificate
or
secretary.
Can
you
please
ensure
that
the
city
staff
and
appellant
understand
their
testimony
is
under
oath?
We.
B
D
D
D
Upon
the
third
violation
management
city
manager
shall
suspend
the
vacation
rental
certificate
for
a
period
of
two
years.
The
first
citation
was
issued,
May
13th
2022
for
our
Music
violation
at
the
property.
A
second
violation
was
found
on
August
13
2022,
for
music
violation
and
property
and
on
January
6
2023.
D
E
Thank
you
Patrick
good
evening,
members
of
the
board,
the
fellow
City
staff
and
members
of
the
public
with
us
for
the
re-hearing.
My
name
is
Mitch
knappan
I'm,
a
co-compliance
supervisor
in
charge
of
the
vacation
rental
enforcement
program
for
the
city
of
Palm
Springs
on
Friday
January,
6
2023
at
approximately
404
PM.
E
While
our
response
to
the
property
did
not
result
in
the
issuance
of
a
citation
for
the
reported
noise
or
music,
we
did
contact
the
occupants
at
the
front
door
and
found
that
the
property
was
in
fact
operating
as
a
vacation
rental.
The
responsible
renter
stated
that
they
had
booked
the
property
for
short-term
stay,
arriving
on
Thursday,
January
5th
and
departing
on
Sunday
January,
8th
via
the
booking
website
airbnb.com.
E
E
I
essentially
walked
her
through
how
to
access
the
city's
website.
The
city's
vacation
rental
website
section
as
far
and
as
well
as
how
to
access
the
link
to
get
to
the
contract
summary
submittal
form.
Additionally,
since
the
suspension
began
on
February
20th
2023,
we've
continued
to
receive
complaints
for
this
address
and
our
investigations
have
found
that
the
property
owner
has
continued
to
operate
as
a
vacation
rental
in
violation
of
her
suspension.
As
recently
as
two
weeks
ago,
the
Airbnb
advertisement
was
still
available
and
request
to
book.
E
A
short-term
stay
by
one
of
our
Enforcement
Officers
was
met
with
an
invitation
to
book
from
the
host,
which
all
indications
show
was
the
the
property
owner
Army.
So
that
will
complete
what
I
have
to
present
I'll
pass
it
back
over
to
Patrick
but
I'm
available
for
any
questions
that
the
board
may
have.
E
D
You
anything
more
for
the
city
yeah,
just
to
further
add
information
regarding
the
contract.
Summary
history,
this
property
is
effective,
start
date
was
July,
2nd
2018
and
for
the
period
between
2018
and
2022,
there
were
zero
contract
summaries
received
by
the
department.
During
that
time,
we
as
a
department
communicated
via
email
through
our
subscription
email
program
that
we
have
on
multiple
times,
topics
relating
to
the
need
to
submit
contract
summaries,
and
these
in
these
specific
letters
are
as
attachment.
D
Six
in
your
staff
reports
and
each
letter
would
touch
base
with
regarding
contract
summaries
are
related
to,
and
with
that
we
did
do
a
a
contract
summary
review.
Furthermore,
that
did
show
that
there
was
one
contract
summary
submitted
in
February
of
2023
and
I,
believe
that
is
attachments
attachment
in
your
staff
reported
too,
but
I
may
be
happy
to
answer
the
questions
regarding
the
contract
summaries
and
that's
what
I'm
thinking.
D
A
D
A
A
2018.
okay,
thank
you
all
right.
If
there's
nothing
further
from
the
city.
At
this
time,
I'd
like
to
open
the
appeal
hearing,
the
appellant
will
be
invited
to
speak
for
up
to
10
minutes.
Any
members
of
the
public
who
desire
to
speak
on
this
appeal
hearing
shall
have
up
to
three
minutes
to
speak.
If
any
member
of
the
public
testifies,
the
appellant
will
be
invited
to
provide
a
rebuttal
for
up
to
two
additional
minutes
board
secretary.
Can
you
please
begin
the
public
testimony
period?
We.
A
A
G
N
Okay,
my
name
is
Arman
Aiken,
as
they
did
mention.
I
did
received
my
permit
in
July,
2nd
of
2018..
When
we
did
start
this,
my
husband
and
I,
you
know
we
love
Palm,
Springs,
Palm
Springs,
it's
my
second
home
I
love
the
people,
I
love
the
neighborhood,
I
love
everything
about
it.
This
is
my
retirement
place
for
sure
love
the
weather.
Actually,
we
live
in
LA.
We
live
in
Porter
Ranch
and
when
we
purchased
this
property
we
found
Florida
permit.
N
There
is
just
so
much
paperwork
that
comes
with
it
and
you
know:
I've
been
working
with
Chantel
in
the
beginning,
and
you
know
she
knew
I
have
two
kids
stay-at-home
mom,
but
just
running
with
dance
class
to
piano
class
too
soccer
practice
you
know,
support
and
so
ons,
just
we're
just
constantly
on
the
Move
I've,
never
understood
what
the
purpose
of
this
project
summary
is.
I
do
know
the
rules
back,
then
it
was
36
rounds
over
42
or
something
or
Z4,
and
you
know
from
there
on.
We
changed
it
to
34..
N
So
I've
known
these
rules,
I've
never
known
what
a
contract
summary
is
never
been
explained
about.
It
never
had
any
courses
about
it.
Never
you
know
been
and
and
I'm
you
know,
Mitch.
You
know,
importantly,
he
he
talked
to
me
back
in
August
I,
don't
recall
this
conversation
at
all
and
when
in
January
6
we're
going
to
talk
about
this,
this
citation
that
occurred.
When
does
officers
did
go
to
the
house,
they
did
ask
their
renters
in.
Are
you
renting
the
property
and
they
did
inform
them?
N
Yes,
one
thing
they
think
failed
to
ask.
Is:
is
there
any
friends
and
family
in
this
property
during
that
time
period
and
which
they
never
asked
that
actually
and
that's
one
of
the
things
that
they
should
ask
every
single
or
rental
before
we
waste
everybody's
time
before
we
issue
any
citations
and
continue
from
forward,
and
you
know
so
forth
and
so
on
with
that
being
said,
once
I
I,
don't
know
who
contacted
me
on
January
6th
I
said
you
know,
look
I
didn't
need
to
submit
a
contract.
N
House
no
one
had
ever
asked
and
so
and
she's.
Her
name
is
under
her
she's
listed
on
as
the
contract
on
one
of
the
friends
and
family
list.
Sorry,
just
just
so
upsetting
with
that
being
said,
as
soon
as
I
found
out
what
a
contract
summary
is
I
did
file
it
as
my
next
rental
that
I
had
and
that's
what
it
stated
and
and
that's
and
then
afterwards
that
he's
saying
that
I
you
know
we
had
a
a
violation
which
I
did
bring
this
up
to
I.
Think
it's
Sean,
it's
not
Mage!
N
Is
it
Sean
or
Mitch?
Did
I
speak
to
you,
so
we
we
I
talked
to
him.
I
said:
look.
There
was
three
officers
that
went
to
the
property
you're
trying
to
find
out
if
I'm
in
violation,
you
don't
need
to
intimidate
my
guests.
There
is
a
90
year
old
man
and
there's
an
87
year
old,
his
wife
there's
two
kids
in
there
you're
there
with
three
officers
wanting
to
find
out.
If
we're
renting
this
property,
you
could
just
simply
ask,
and
then
you
don't
need
to
come,
explain
my
whole
business
to
them.
N
Well,
they're
not
supposed
to
they're
in
violation.
They're
they're
suspended
that
that's
my
privacy
I
understand
it's
on
public
record,
but
that
does
not
need
to
be
this
close
to
every
single
person
that
there
is
if
they
want
to
go
ahead
and
look
at
it.
Just
like
a
piece
of
paper
that
I
can't
even
see
I
have
to
go
specifically
look
at
it.
I
expect
the
same
thing:
they
don't
need
to
disclose
every
single
thing,
intimidate,
my
guess
and
and
just
make
a
and
I
have
to
deal
with
it.
These
kids
were
scared.
N
They
left
the
same
day,
they're
horrified
they're
like
what
is
going
on
and
like
they
weren't
supposed
to
do
this.
You
just
need
to
find
out,
if
I'm
being,
if
I'm,
on,
violation
or
not
and
and
and
I
just
feel
like
it's
they're,
taking
a
completely
a
power
control
on
this,
and
it's
not
right.
My
neighbor
I
have
there's
five
different
properties
in
that
are
being
vacation.
Rentals
and
not
one
single
being
is
being
called
on
I'm,
the
only
one
that's
being
called
on
I,
don't
know
why?
N
Because
when
we
go
there,
we're
very
courteous,
we're
very
you
know
it's
a
family,
it's
our
home
and
we
love
this
home.
It's
our
first
vacation
home.
Is
you
know
my
kids
love
it.
We
just
have
a
blast
there
and
I.
Don't
understand
why
I'm
always
the
one
that's
being
called
on
and
when
I
did
ask
them
they
did
submit.
N
They
did
tell
me
how
I
could
get
a
list
of
all
the
complaints
that
was
actually
complained
on
my
property
I
mean
if
I
show
you
these
complaints,
they're
just
obscene
they're
they're
calling
because
they're
they're
singing
Happy
Birthday
I
mean
that's,
that's
not
right.
You
can't
just
like
as
a
neighbor
call
them,
because
someone
that
came
there
as
a
vacation
and
to
say
happy
birthday,
that's
how
is
that
fair
people
want
to
get
away
after
covet.
Everyone
is
just
going
through
so
much
depression.
So
much
sadness.
N
A
F
C
K
A
G
B
D
Say
typically,
this
might
be
beyond
the
story
before,
but
typically
you
know
names
of
complainants
to
the
extent
that
they
are
submitting.
This
as
a
complaint
would
be
would
not
be
disclosed
like
I
can
tell
if
the
city
perceives
a
public
records
request.
You
know,
and
they
are
submitting
this
testimony
as
this
submitting
this
as
a
complaint.
That
means
would
be
redacted
I'm,
not
sure
what
I
would
encourage
you
to
follow.
Whatever
the
regular
process
is
for
written
comments,
so,
to
the
extent
that
you
didn't
regularly
read
that
names
for
written
comments
to.
B
A
H
N
N
A
N
A
N
And
just
to
be
fair,
I
did
request.
As
I
said,
I
did
request
for
the
city,
I
mean
they're,
saying
that
the
trash
is
out
there
for
three
days.
The
city
is
supposed
to
pick
up
the
trash
they're
telling
me
that
their
trash
is
going
on
their
front
yard.
I'm,
a
vacation
rental
holder,
they're
supposed
to
pick
up
the
trash.
That's
not
my
responsibility,
so.
H
A
N
N
Why
what
are
they
telling
you
like
I
said
they?
They
went
out
there
because
they
know
my
license
is
suspended.
They
they're
now
they're
just
calling,
so
they
specifically
did
this
intentionally.
Did
this
to
give
my
license
suspended
and
now
it's
it's
now
they're
just
trying
to
push
me
out
it's
to
the
point,
I'm
selling,
my
house,
it's
that
sad.
Have
you
been
renting
yeah.
F
F
F
N
A
N
That
paperwork
you're
right
I'm
not
like
at
any
point
again,
once
I
I
found
out
about
this
I
right
away,
filed
my
first
summary.
After
five
years,
I
had
no
idea,
I
mean
I
was
given
citations
many
before.
Why
was
I
given
a
citation
of
this
summaries,
so
this
is
not
my
first
second
third
citation
I've
never
gone
this
contract
summary.
A
N
N
K
E
N
G
B
K
B
I
decided
to
go
behind
her
and
just
book
it
because
I
didn't
want
her
to
always
go
there
for
free.
Since
I
know
children,
expenses,
mortgages
utilities,
so
we
booked
it.
I
was
there
in
the
room
and
we
got
an
officer
knocked
down
by
my
friends
and
at
the
opened
the
door
and
of
course
we
are
renting
it
and
it's
not
like
our
house,
so
she
got
her
answer
and
she's
Canadian.
So
her
answer
was
experiencing
so
I
was
in
the
room
there.
B
G
C
B
E
B
D
Yeah
you're
done
clarify
I
made
a
couple
of
points,
one
with
me
and
then
I'll
invite
code
supervisors
and
to
clarifying
video
interaction
that
took
place
at
that
event.
That
night
I
wanted
to
talk
about
the
conversation
around
property
being
so
currently
we're
being
having
guests
there
and
I
talked
with
prime
mining.
Is
that
correct,
I
apologize?
No
you're
perfect?
D
We
had
a
conversation
regarding
what
what
could
be
occurring
here
at
the
appealed
hearing
of
whether
that
set
was
and
her
test.
Her
statement
to
me
was
that
her
interpretation
of
the
suspension
letter
that
was
out
was
that
we're
not
allowed
to
take
any
new
bookings
going
further,
but
the
bookings
that
did
take
place
at
the
property
were
bookings
that
were
already
reserved
in
place
at
that
time.
However,
the
suspension
letter
that
we
do
illustrate
issue
that
does
state
that
all
advertising
and
operation
must
stop
affected,
that
suspension
date.
D
E
Great
thank
you
Patrick.
So,
yes,
I've
had
multiple
conversations
with
the
property
owner
over
the
last
couple
of
years.
In
response
to
complaints
that
we
received
for
this
property-
and
you
know
the
question
came
up,
you
know.
Why
has
nobody
ever
talked
to
me
about
this
before
you
know
going
back
a
couple
of
years,
I
believe
it
was
summer
2020
I
do
recall.
E
There
was
a
conversation
that
was
similar
to
the
to
the
same
effect
as
far
as
submitting
those
contract
summaries
in
response
to
a
complaint,
specifically
within
the
last
year,
the
citation
that
was
issued
back
in
May
by
Officer,
Wade
I.
Believe
it
was,
you
know
there.
There
was
actually
a
citation
that
was
drafted
for
a
failure
to
submit
a
contract
summary
at
that
time.
E
It
took
a
couple
of
months,
but
when
we
were
reconciling
it
after
my
response
in
August
to
the
property
to
issue
the
citation
and
and
reviewing
that
there
was
no
contract
summaries,
there
I
noticed
that
we
had
issued
this
citation,
but
there
was
a
clerical
error
where
it
seemed
to
have
gotten
lost
in
the
shuffle.
It
appears
that
it
may
not
have
been
mailed
out
there
was.
E
E
You
know:
permitted
amount
of
contracts
within
a
calendar
year,
so
I
did
have
that
conversation
with
the
property
owner
in
August,
and
so
then,
when
we
got
called
out
on
January
6th,
you
know,
I
did
have
a
conversation
with
the
property
owner
immediately
after
our
as
after
our
response
at
the
property,
and
at
no
point
did
she
indicate
that
this
property
was
occupied
by
a
friend
or
family.
The
conversation
was
that
it
was
rented
and
it
was
honestly
it
was
more
focused
on
who
was
the
one
that
is
complaining
about
me.
E
I,
don't
understand
all
these
complaints
kind
of
similar
to
her
disposition
earlier
in
that
sense,
and
and
so
again,
in
addition
to
walking
her
through
how
to
submit
the
contract
summaries
and
the
importance
of
that
I
also
provided
her
with
some
information
on
how
she
could
file
a
request
for
a
public
records
act
request
to
obtain
information
related
to
the
specific
complaints,
because
there
was
some
you
know
there.
There
was
some
dispute
over
the
details
of
the
complaints
again
I
think
you
know
that
there
was.
E
She
was
thinking
that
we
were
maybe
making
it
up
and
we
were
targeting
her
and
you
know
again.
I
was
trying
to
assure
her
that
no,
these
are
complaints
that
we
are
receiving.
Those
are
things
that
we
are
investigating
and
then
again
over
the
course
of
the
next
couple
of
months.
We've
had
multiple
calls
for
the
property
that
a
bunch
of
you
know.
E
I
actually
did
have
a
follow-up
call
with
Armin
a
couple
of
weeks
ago,
and
she
stated
that
she
would
provide
me
with
ring
footage
of
that
playback
provided
her
with
my
email
address
and
never
received
that
information.
Because
again,
if
there's,
obviously,
if
there's
opportunity,
if
my
officers
are
acting
inappropriately,
that's
something
that
I,
you
know
assured
her,
that
I
would
follow
up
with
them
and
correct
any
inappropriate
I.
Don't
have
any
reason
to
suggest
that
the
other
thing
worth
mentioning
is
that
you
know
there
is
a
ring.
E
Doorbell
camera
positioned
right
at
the
front
of
the
door
and
there's
also
one
that's
positioned
at
on
top
of
the
driveway
above
the
garage.
So
generally,
when
we
go
out
to
do
our
observations,
we
do
it
from
the
street.
Those
ring
cameras
are
activated
and
oftentimes.
You
know
our
mean
along
with
there's
a
male
I,
don't
know
if
his
name
was
George
but
there's
another
individual
that
would
get
onto
those
ring
cameras
and
start
conversating
with
our
officers.
E
Doorbell
camera
on
that
and
and
trying
to
interject
into
that
conversation.
You
know
the
allegations
of
I
believe
it
was
entered
in
the
public
comment
about
being
coached
to
provide.
You
know
false
or
misleading
information
to
the
officers.
That
is
feedback
that
we
have
gotten
in
the
past.
There
was
one
specific
response:
I
believe
it
was
back
in
February,
where
one
of
the
officers
spoke
with
I
believe
he
had
mentioned.
E
It
was
our
mean
via
the
ring
doorbell
camera,
and
she
stated
that
she
was
staying
at
the
property
overnight,
but
she
was
out
at
the
grocery
store
and
and
kind
of
left
it
at
that.
So
so
again,
and
we
later
found
out,
you
know
that
we
had
some
evidence
to
support
that.
That
may
not
have
been
true
and
again
there
was
like
I
mentioned
previously.
E
You
know
we
have
a.
We
have
evidence
and
a
strong
case
to
suggest
that
the
property
has
been
continuing
to
operate.
You
know,
during
the
suspension
period,
which
began
February
20th
addition
to
that
the
advertisement
that
was
included
in
the
public
record.
That
was
a
new
advertisement.
That
was
not
the
previous
advertisement
that
had
been
taken
down
and
so
that
you
know
when
we
saw
that
go
up
again.
That
was
alarming,
because
at
that
point
the
suspension
had
been
communicated.
E
But
yeah
I
mean
obviously
it's
a
complicated
case.
Like
I
said
I've
spoken
with
the
property
owner
multiple
times,
you
know,
I
don't
have
an
ell
towards
towards
her
or
the
property,
and
then
you
know,
unfortunately
again
the
there.
There
have
been
a
lot
of
complaints
as
a
result
of
how
this
property
operates,
and
you
know
on
the
administrative
side,
you
know,
while
I'm
doing
our
investigations,
you
know
and
and
hearing
statements
from
the
guests
when
we're
having
those
interactions
it.
You
know
it
seems
like
they
are
not
being
explained.
E
The
rules
correctly.
Administratively,
the
contract
summaries
aren't
being
submitted.
So
are
there
just
red
flags
at
this
property
you
know,
is
not
operating
well
or
not
operating
in
accordance
with
with
the
intent
of
the
vacation,
rental
ordinance.
So
that'll
kind
of
conclude
what
I
know
that
was
long.
All.
H
N
First
of
all,
on
my
on
my
ring,
I
I
thought:
I
sent
you
the
videos
and
today
actually
I
just
realized,
because
I
was
waiting
for
your
call
to
see
how
you
know
how
you
were
going
to
address
to
these
officers.
I
really
thought
I'd.
Send
it
to
you,
because
I
went
to
video
One
video,
two
video
three
that
same
moment
so
I'm,
sorry,
you
didn't
receive
it.
I'm
gonna
go
look
through
the
emails
again
and
see
what
happened
and
I
did
receive
your
mail.
Second
of
all,
why
didn't
you
issue
me?
A
N
Then
also,
when
you
talk
to
me
on
January
6th,
you
think
I'm
going
to
go
ahead
and
tell
you
everything
what
what
you
should
do
at
your
job.
You
should
actually
go
there
and
ask.
Is
there
any
friends
and
family
on
the
list?
Is
there
anyone
that's
residing
or
renting
their
property?
Did
you
do
that?
This.
A
A
A
D
D
A
A
G
C
A
F
C
A
So
it
has
been
upheld,
you
will
get
an
official
notification
from
the
city
that
does
not
preclude
you
from
renting
on
what
the
city
defines
as
long
term,
which
is
29
nights.
I
want
to
thank
everyone
for
their
time
and
effort
on
this
case.
We're
gonna
move
to
the
last
part
of
our
agenda:
approval
of
minutes
for
February
and
March.
Is
there
a
motion
to
accept
these
these
minutes
from
these
two
meetings.
A
A
A
A
All
right,
thank
you
and
finally,
time
set
aside
for
the
city
clerk
to
update
the
administrative
appeals
board
on
important
items
initiated
by
staff
for
previously
requested
by
the
board.
We
no
longer
have
I
think
you
have
let
everyone
know.
We
no
longer
have
an
alternate
on
the
about
appeals
board.
Mr
Hedrick
did
give
his
resignation
anything
else.
A
Okay
and
I
believe
that
we've
discussed
last
time
that
430
is
better
once
a
month
than
to
trying
to
go
to
a
two
twice
a
month,
so
we
will
continue
to
meet
at
4
30
until
we
start
working
through
the
backlog,
and
we
expect
that
we'll
probably
be
within
two
months
roughly.
Hopefully,
yes,
all
right
next
meeting
is
May
24th
at
4
30.,
and
with
that.
