E. The county-issued zoning certificate and/or certificate of occupancy for such dwelling unit shall be on display in the interior of the unit. The zoning certificate and/or certificate of occupancy for a short-term rental use is valid for only the original Operator and dwelling(s) listed on the zoning certificate and/or certificate of occupancy and must not be transferable to any future Operator or other property. Changes to the information pertaining to the operator or dwelling(s) listed on the zoning certificate and/or certificate of occupancy will require the issuance of a new zoning certificate and/or certificate of occupancy.

Owner occupied shall be defined as an owner occupying and living at the property for 180 days or more in the applicable calendar year.

The zoning certificate and/or certificate of occupancy for a short-term rental use is valid for only the original Operator and dwelling(s) listed on the zoning certificate and/or certificate of occupancy and must not be transferable to any future Operator or other property. Changes to the information pertaining to the operator or dwelling(s) listed on the zoning certificate and/or certificate of occupancy will require the issuance of a new zoning certificate and/or certificate of occupancy.

G. No exterior evidence that the property is being used as a short-term rental shall be allowed, including signs.

H. The short-term rental host shall monitor, and the host and the applicable short-term rental intermediaries’ platforms (as permitted by law) shall record any complaints each may receive from guests, local residents, or others regarding any nuisance activity or sanitary, health, or life safety conditions observed on the property.

J. Comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, including but not limited to the collection and certification of payment of taxes and the procurement of any required licenses and permits.

L. Post, within each unit, contact information for the owner, host, and/or other local emergency contact information.

M. The owner shall install and maintain the following safety requirements: an operational smoke detector in each bedroom and floor of the unit; each floor must have at least one operational fire extinguisher that is clearly marked and accessible to guests; each floor must have at least one operational carbon monoxide detector; all rooms used for sleeping must have at least two means of egress; a working battery powered portable flashlight, or lantern, or other emergency lighting device that is workable during an electrical power outage; and a fire safety plan and emergency contact information, including the contact information for the Operator or Manager, local law enforcement, and fire and rescue, must be posted in a visible location.

N. The owner shall allow the inspection of the short-term rental dwelling unit by the County for compliance with the Conditional Use Permit upon reasonable prior notice (which may be oral or electronic) at times that such unit is not occupied by a short-term rental guest; and further agree that if the host for any reason does not allow requested County inspection of such unit, the short-term rental permit for such unit may be suspended by the County Zoning Administrator until such inspection is allowed by the host.

O. Provide evidence to the County Zoning Administrator that there is at least $300,000 of liability insurance for the proposed short-term rental dwelling unit in question, which insurance may be provided by a short-term rental intermediary; provided that no short-term rental intermediary shall have any obligation or liability to the county with respect to whether such insurance is provided.
