Palm Desert Vacation Rental Update

On November 19, 2020, the City Council approved amendments to the existing STR Ordinance. The amendments implement new regulations for STRs within the PR zones for properties not governed by a homeowners’ association (HOA).

All new STR permit applications within the PR zones require a written approval letter from an HOA having jurisdiction over the property.  Existing STR permits within the PR zones (excluding On-Site Owner STR Permits), without a written approval letter, shall terminate and such uses permanently cease operation after December 31, 2021.

All other aspects of the STR Ordinance regarding allowable zoning districts, enforcement, communication between owners and neighbors, and operational standards remain the same.
