(A) Upon a change of ownership of a property licensed to operate as a short-term rental, the owner (i.e., seller of the property) shall notify the city of such change immediately. The existing permit is null and void and the property shall cease operating as a short-term rental immediately. The new owner may submit an application and an application fee for a new permit, which must be obtained prior to renting the subject property as a short-term rental.
(B) Within ten days of a change in material facts pertaining to the information submitted by the owner in the permit application, the owner shall submit an amendment to the application in the form provided by the city and the applicable fee. The city shall process the amendment in the same manner as a new application and after completion of its investigation shall notify the owner of the result in writing.
(C) Any changes to the owner's, owner's agent and/or local contact person's mailing and email addresses and/or telephone number and changes of the local contact person shall be immediately submitted to the Permit Administrator and shall not require the submission of an application for a new permit.
(D) If an owner determines to terminate the short-term rental use, the owner or owner's agent shall within ten days notify the Permit Administrator and request cessation of the short-term rental permit. In such case, the owner or owner's agent shall promptly remove any and all advertisements of the short-term rental. No refunds shall be provided to the owner in case of cancellation of the permit.
