Short-Term Rental Ordinance On Glendora City Council Agenda

GLENDORA, CA — City officials plan to change how short-term rentals are operated in Glendora — again.

The City Council will hold a reading during its Tuesday meeting of a proposed ordinance that would further tweak Glendora's municipal code on the regulation of short-term rentals.

The meeting will start at 7 p.m., and residents can watch by visiting the Glendora website.

Some of the proposed tweaks to the municipal code include:

• Banning the use of accessory dwelling units as short-term rentals
• Requiring homes used as short-term rentals to display signs identifying itself as one and include contact information of the host
• Restricting the maximum number of occupants of a short-term rental to 10 people
• Prohibiting visitors or guests to a short-term rental

Previous changes to the code include an ordinance requiring short-term rentals to follow a "Good Neighbor Policy" and an ordinance that tweaked the fines for rentals used to host "loud disorderly parties," according to city officials.

The crackdown on short-term rentals stems from an August 2020 incident involving a house used for an illegal mansion party. The Glendora Police Department responded to multiple reports of loud music, littering and parking issues because of the party, according to KNBC.
