Many communities across San Bernardino County have experienced secondary impacts of short-term rentals, including trash left outside, cars blocking driveways, and late night-music. These nuisances to neighbors are also code enforcement violations. Reporter Erenst Figueroa says the county has set up a new hotline for complaints related to short-term rentals…
Those residents of San Bernardino County who know of short-term rentals creating nuisances or operating illegally can call the new county complaint hotline, 24-hours a day, seven days a week, toll-free at 1-800-205-9417. The new hotline will work together with a new software system that tracks unpermitted short-term rentals in unincorporated areas. This gives the county an edge in addressing complaints quickly and effectively while also cracking down on illegal rentals. The new number replaces the county’s prior reporting hotline.
