To Newport Beach City Council Members,
My family and I are writing to oppose item #6 in the proposed new ordinance for short term
lodging. We believe all of the items under the proposed new ordinance are fair and reasonable
with the exception of item #6 that requires all STL units on Newport Island to be owner -
occupied. This restriction is not fair and equitable for those of us who do not have owner -
occupied units in the Island and who follow all the STL rules and regulations. This would
eliminate our ability (and other property owners on the Island) to rent our home on a short
term basis and will create financial hardship for me and my family to lose this rental income.
This sends a message that Newport Island is an exclusive community with special privileges
that do not apply to the rest of the city. The problems with short term lodging are not unique to
Newport Island so why should homeowners who are good STL operators on NI be penalized
when all other homeowners in Newport Beach may continue to rent non -owner -occupied
properties on a short term basis? To single out Newport Island makes no sense when the other
island communities in Newport Beach — Balboa Island, Little Balboa Island, Bay Island,
Collins Island, Harbor Island, Lido Isle, Linda Isle — would not be under this restriction. This
is simply unfair and inequitable.
We respectfully ask that you eliminate item #6 and acknowledge that this regulation will
adversely affect a number of Newport Island property owners who are abiding by all the STL
rules and regulations. We have had our Newport Island property in our family since the 1930's
when my grandfather bought the property and built a vacation home. As long-time property
owners of the Island, we are proud to be a part of this community and we would ask to be
treated fairly and respectfully by our local government officials.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Best regards,
The Bowman Family
Newport Island Property Owners

Subject: Newport STRs
Honorable Mayor and City Council,
Please support Newport Beach residents, voters, tax payers, families who are trying to deal with the nuisance and
intrusion that Short Term Rentals have introduced into our community. We are trying to protect our quality of life that
caused us to move and live in Newport Beach. The last thing we want is to turn Newport Beach into something like
Marina del Rey with runaway commercial development. Newport Beach is a special place and should be treated with
some respect.
Please vote for a capon the number of STRs issued. A group of Newport island Residents meet with the City Manager
to discuss STRs and she told us "we do not have the resources to enforce the code". It is absurd to have the city
continue to issue permits, that are negatively impacting the community, and not have resources to do basic code
enforcement.
As a resentidal group (Newport Island) impacted by STRs we asked if any environmental, safety or traffic studies has
been conducted prior to issuing a 500% increase in STRs. So far no response..... crickets. I will assume the answer is no.
You may have noticed in the past few weeks complaints are down. Well summer is over, the owners are keenly aware
of the spotlight on this topic and i can say the STIR near my home is in about 75% compliance of code the past few
weeks. That is a huge improvement from near zero percent compliance all summer. But unless proper code is passed i
fear we will just see another free for all as soon as the political spot light has moved on.
Please support REAL code and enforcement of your new transient hotel policies in our neighborhoods.
Thank youk

Subject: STR Ordnances Approval
Honorable City Council,
Thank you to the City Council Members who have spent the last two years listening to all parties impacted by the City Permitted
Short Term Rental Issues.
The current emergency ordinances regarding not issuing new STR permits or the 3 or 4 night minimums should not be repealed by
City Council until the long term ordinances are in place to protect the impacted neighborhoods.
I am hoping the already water downed STR Ordinances will be passed Tuesday night so all the hard work will not be wasted.
While other surrounding cities are capping or going the owner occupied route, etc. Newport is letting more one night stays, more
STR hotel's, etc. in our neighborhoods unless the proposed STR Ordinances are passed.
The City Council created the STR permitted problem and should be responsible to represent a majority of its impacted residents and
provide immediate relief.
Newport Island has it's unique safety and parking problems but if the City Council does not act now more of the city could be over
run with permanent STR hotels in their neighborhood.
As we are all aware once they are next door they stay next door.
Please be responsible and take the side of your residents over the out of town an other local businesses and owners that are
profiting while destroying the character of the impacted neighborhoods.
I am going to start voting first and foremost for City Council Members who still believe in quality of life and the character of a
neighborhood before business interests and hotels that operate in residential neighborhoods.
Let's not forget our family rights to sleep and a safe environment. You would not want an STR next door to your family.
Please do the right thing and pass the STR Ordinances and follow through with a STR permit ban and Owner Occupied on Newport
Island. Thank you.

>> My husband and I are residents of Newport Island. Since purchasing our home in 2009, we have seen a tremendous
increase in short term rental activity here. This increase correlates to more noise, traffic, trash, cars and people on our
island throughout the year, and especially in the summer months. Our streets are narrow, we have only one two-way
road onto the island, parking is extremely limited, our homes are very close to each other, we have no front yards, we
cool our homes by leaving windows open, and our residents include very young children as well as senior citizens. These
Newport Island characteristics are not compatible with the large and rowdy groups that congregate in the short term
rental properties. I join my fellow island residents who have written and spoken to you expressing objection to the
proliferation of STRs and the related problems. We strongly urge you to take action that reduces the number of units on
our island that can be rented out on a short term basis, increases the number of nights that constitute `short term/
limits the number of people and cars allowed per property, requires parking permits year round, restricts parties and
activities that spill into our streets, expands patrols by law enforcement and penalizes excessive noise, music, profanity
and trash.
>> Thank you for your support!

Dear Council,
I hope you are all well.
I am writing to express my support and that of many of my peninsula point
neighbors for the proposed changes to the short term rental ordinance.
We support:
1) establishing a minimum 3 night stay requirement; 2) instituting a
maximum cap of 1,550 short term lodging permits citywide and the
creation of a waiting list; 3) adding regulations related to the transferability
of permits; 4) establishing a minimum age of 25 for the rental of short
term lodging units and 5) adding a new parking enforcement provision.
Thank you for taking up this issue and attempting to reign in some of the
issues residents are experiencing as a result of the current approach to
this growing problem.

Hello City Council,
I strongly oppose the existing and any expansion of short term rentals on Newport Island.
We are a quiet residential only island. The short term rentals are disturbing the tranquility of our island. It is not fair that
a few property owners can make our lives miserable. I don't understand how this has allowed to happen. We need to
put an end to the non-stop party, party, party rentals. It is a blight on our island and we are sick and tired of it and we
vote!!!
Please restrict the expansion and put teeth in the code enforcement.
I will remember who voted for development and will do anything I can to get he or she voted out of office.
Thank you.

Dear Council Members,
want to thank the council for voting on restrictions for Short Term Rentals in Newport Beach and in particular
on Newport Island. It was comforting to see an outcome that reflected the wishes of the majority of the
residents. Far too often outcomes are arrived that do not take into consideration the concerns of residents.
Newport Beach and Newport Island in particular have significant issues that are related to over development
and unfortunately residents have little or no control over how properties are developed. Over time real estate
developers and rental companies have had the ear of the council and the planning commission.
have taken a bit of back seat as I have watched permits, and variances granted, small cottages replaced by
mansions but enough is enough and I will watch this election and future elections closely to see how the
viewpoints of residents are being heard and acted upon.

I am a widowed grandmother who has lived on Newport Island for 23 years. This past summer I felt like I was living on
the board walk. Newport Island has been a quiet community real safe and cozy. I live on the corner of 38th and Finley
street end, I didn't feel safe this summer. What makes it even worse there are probably 20-30 dogs a day and night that
use the grass as a dog park. I have to pay the Gardner and water to try and keep it nice and clean. People look in my
windows and back yard. And the bridge jumping was out of control and dangerous.
Please can't we have one area in Newport that stays family safe and quiet.

Hello,
I just received notification regarding a City Council Meeting on Short Term Rentals being held tomorrow.
First, I want to thank all of you for your service, and I hope everyone and their family are staying safe.
I currently own 2 homes here in Newport Beach which I rent one long term and reside in the other. I've been a Resident
here since 1986... time flies! Lol... but I speak with 34 yrs Residency regarding my concerns.
Regarding Short Term Rentals, I'd just like to ask if you could reconsider the number of 1,550 STRs... I understand it
brings revenue to our City, but it is an incredibly high number to regulate, police, refuse collection, traffic and many
other problems associated with STRs. So, I'm asking if you could re -consider that high number of 1,550 STR Permits.
If you feel strongly that it's the number you're set on... then I'd like to suggest if you could spread that number out
throughout the entire city. A high concentration of STRs are here on the Peninsula, and the traffic is unbearable... not to
mention parking for our families. My brother is a (32 yrs of service) retired Police Swat Officer from Huntington Beach,
and knows first hand the issues of beach chaos. He feels when you put 10 gallons into a 5 gallon bag... it's a recipe for
many, many problems.
I understand a larger facility for the Jr Lifeguard Program is being built here at the Balboa Pier... with wedding venues to
be serviced and City meetings. The Peninsula has one way on... one way off and very limited parking with traffic at a
stand still on many days/nights. This along with STRs will bring more unbearable traffic congestion.
I hope and ask if you could re -consider proposing a STR Density Program for neighborhoods or lower the number of STRs
permitted in our City. The Peninsula and Newport Island are victims of residential neighborhoods becoming non-
existent. Let's take care of our family first (Newport Residents)... then accommodate our visitors.
All the best,
Crystal Sechrist

Dear City Council:
Please vote to enact restrictions on short term rentals. As someone whose life was very impacted by a nearby short
term rental for a few years, I am very much in favor of seeking to rein them in and put additional requirements on them.
In my case, the house 3 doors down was regularly rented by what seemed to be an endless stream of young people
coming to a huge party. The noise and trash were almost unbearable and the quiet ambience of my street was
shattered. I was lucky that the listing was eventually dropped in favor of a huge remodel, but I share the pain of anyone
living through this.
Please, please, please pass restrictions on short term lodgings for the sake of your tortured constituents!

Dear City Council Members
As a resident of Newport Island I ask that you vote on this issue so that it gets presented to the Coastal Commission, so
that they can review in the wider scheme of things.
Newport Island in particular has changed dramatically in the last 2 years. The number of short term rentals has increased
form approx. 3 to 17 and is changing the dynamics of a residential neighbourhood. I ask you to consider strongly the
needs of people who just want to remain residing in Newport Island as it is our home. Please consider all the undue
stress which has been and continues to be put upon the island residents by creating a mini hotel complex. The island is
not set up for that and as residents we need our voice to be heard.
Please get this to the coastal commission and do not allow the debasing of this area to continue, let us work together to
keep Newport Beach great not only for today but for the future.
Your sincerely
Gina Unsworth (resident of Newport Island)

Unintended consequences of "STR's"
The Internet has revolutionized all of our lives. How we shop, by groceries, obtain our news, get driving
directions, etc.... We all know this story. There is no going back, but how we move forward is in the hands of
our elected representatives.
My wife and I have been residences in the OC for over 40 years. Our desire to live in Newport Beach was
driven by our childhood memories of vacationing for a few weeks every year near the beach. These were
weekly summer rentals occupied mostly by families. Newport was a great vacation destination. But that is
changing. The Internet has facilitated an opportunity to exploit vacation rentals into hotel party hot spots.
STR's may be profitable for the city and for a few businesses that sublease properties by turning them into
STR's. But this is not conducive to full time residence.
We live on Newport Island and chose this location because it offered serene living, its close proximity to Lido
village and the beach.
There clearly is a problem, evidenced by the outcry of the full time residences of Newport Island. I urge you,
our elected representatives to seek a better balance between profits from STRs and full time residences. It is
imperative that you limit the damage STR's inflict on our neighborhood.
Thank you for consideration of this matter. We hope you will support the needs of your constituents and find
a proper balance.

This is the same letter I sent Mr. Avery, but:
Dear City Council,
I am asking you to please re -consider your changed stance on these. They greatly affect property values, especially in Corona del Mar
and basically all areas south of the Bay, and make our neighborhoods less desirable places to live. I had an escrow cancel once when
the buyers found out that there was a short term rental next door, and the Seller ended up taking a number well less than the original
offer. Even 3 nights seems too short, but at least it's a compromise. I do hope you will again consider and vote for this already
negotiated compromise.
Sincerely,

Subject: Short -Term Rentals
Dear City Council members,
As a resident of the Balboa Peninsula we have attended meetings discussing the terrible impact of short-term rentals. This is a Hugh
problem for our city , and it's changing the composition of our neighborhoods. We live near the 10th street beach and have seen it
go from a pleasant family-oriented, local beach to a three-ring circus, with tents, many untrained dogs, and multi -group
parties! Most of this comes from directly across the street where there are now at least 8 short-term rentals. Then on the beach -
side it's worse- houses that were made for a family of 6 stuffed to overflowing with week -end renters. The problem with rentals is
people think "not my neighborhood, I'm doing what I want!" No courtesy, lots of loud music, no control over their trash, no
problem yelling, or having all their friends down for fun. No thought to local neighbors who live there all the time. Things are
starting to look "used". I'm sure you know all this.
We are a city, and people who live here mostly aren't in it to "make a buck". We want to have decent city services, calm
neighborhoods, people who live next to us who live there all the time who are also interested in being a city, not an "attraction".
This commercial use in non-commercial areas is stretching our city services: How many week -end calls to police and fire come from
rentals? What is the increased volume of trash? Street -cleaning is a problem I know. Is this helping our city? Are we skimping on
the good city service we used to have for our locals to stretch to clean up over -used areas?
At every meeting I went to the "locals" - who elected you, who live here full-time- to whom you are supposed to be representing -
wanted at least a 4 -day minimum rental- which requires a week -day use. This is what upper -scale communities do - Carmel, Santa
Barbara, parts of Palm Springs etc. Even better- a 5 day minimum. The clientele at the increased number of nights is a little more
caring of the neighbors. So I was quite surprised to see this 3 -day minimum ---
-A three-day rental to me is a weekend- Friday night, Saturday night, Sunday night- leave for work on Monday morning! Is this
the best you can do? I guess this would be a good place to start - but it's not "good for the locals" in any way! In fact this is
better than nothing but why can't you step up to saving the neighborhoods and make it a 4 -night minimum. If people want to
stay the week -end they can rent a hotel room In a commercial area. The city can still make money from that.
The biggest question is enforcement- please make a definitive plan and I would appreciate seeing swift action on this.
I also thought that rental applications were capped at 1500 and that we were almost there. What happened to that? Now we've
added more "opportunity" to "make a buck". I believe in "free enterprise" but not at the expense of others. Where is
enforcement? I hope the city will stick to this plan and not allow any other applications and that they will also review the
applications. An interesting thought - of the applications made for short-term rentals, how many owners actually lived in Newport
Beach and pay taxes here?
I encourage you to at minimum pass the 3 -night minimum for short-term rentals —but mostly I would like you to consider a 4
NIGHT MINIMUM.
Thank you, Bonnie and Jerry Mcclellan

To the City Council Members,
This battle over restricting short term rentals in the City of Newport has been very one-sided and the short term rental
permit holders that have always been good operators are being unfairly punished because of a few bad operators.
I agree there should be some restrictions but to require the owners to be responsible for parking tickets for their guests
is ridiculous. This is not required for long term renters, so why should it be for the short term renter? Collecting the
fines for parking tickets should be the responsibility of the City for all people including one day visitors. I question how
this will be enforced and how much this will cost in administrative fees?
urge you to remove Section 10 Line 22 from the ordinance. Hasn't the Ad Hoc Committee done enough below to
restrict the rights of short term rental permit holders who generated over 3 million dollars in tax revenue for the City in
2019?
3 night minimum for all rentals ( This should be a 2 night minimum so families can visit for the weekend)
Limit rentals to those 25 and older ( seems very unfair- you can vote or die in battle but you can'tvacation in
our City)
Limit number of Permits issued ( this will eliminate revenue for the City and limit available low cost rental
options)
4. Require operator to provide at least one parking space per unit ( impossible for many)
5. Require owners to be responsible for parking tickets received by their guests ( so unfair)
6. Establishing large fines for noise violations and non- compliance- (Shouldn't owners with long term rentals be
subjected to this too?)
Respectfully,
Colleen Howes

Important Notice
City Council Final Vote Tonight
Short Term Lodging Revised Ordinance
Tuesday, October 27, 2020 @ 4:30 p.m.
Dear City,
Tonight is the second reading of the Short Term Lodging TL ordinance with new, more restrictive
conditions.
SPON has already publicly stated it supports efforts to control and mitigate the negative impacts of Short
Term Rentals on the quality of life in Newport Beach, and SPON supports passage of the proposed STL
ordinance being considered by the City Council at tonight's meeting.
However, lobbying pressure is now undercutting support for the Short Term Lodging ordinance.
The vote is expected to be extremely close, so if you support SPON's position to pass and implement the
revised ordinance with its added restrictions, it is important to email City Council ASAP and/or attend
tonight's City Council Meeting and address this matter during the Consent Calendar Public Comments
Section.

Honorable City Council members, thank you for all the progress that has been made over the last 2 years to reform the
short term lodging business in our beautiful city. Don't let this progress be derailed!
We appear to be very close to getting the votes necessary to complete this next phase of the ordinance tonight and need
your help to make this happen for the residents of Newport. I don't know how many more meetings and pleadings we
need to have before "you" the decision makers look after their constituents. We understand the funds generated from this
business are important to the city, but to add more STR's all over Newport is not the solution. We all know the current
STIR owners and agents are making more money then they ever expected, so it would make more sense to increase their
fees, taxes, etc, to get the dollars you need and not make the problem worse by adding more STR's.
Do not make us wait, take action tonight! Please take care of the residents, homeowners and long term renters who
invest in this cities businesses, restaurants, pay taxes and support this city year round.
Most importantly, take care of Newport Island as we continue to struggle with overcrowded streets, congestion, lack of
parking, safety issues, excess noise, and nuisance brought on by the STR's. DO NOT ALLOW ANOTHER STIR permit to
be issued and help us correct the problems we already have.
Make Newport proud of the work you are all doing.
Thank you
Mark Markos

My vote is "NO" STL in CDM. We do not need another Party City like on the Newport Beach Pennicelia. Our homes are
too expensive to be dealing with a lot of drunk people partying and damaging our wonderful CDM.

re: Short Term Lodging Revised Ordinance
Dear Board Members,
As a 57 year resident of CdM, it has become increasingly difficult to tolerate more & more commercial greed through
property redevelopment and NOW, this new wave of Short Term Lodging. There are numerous Short Term Lodging sites
near my home.
— I see parking problems from saturation due to transient visitors. Some of which are instructed to NOT park in front of
the Owner's front unit, but to park away on cross streets and use the ally to enter & exit.
— Illegal operation of Short Term Lodging of bootleg units that had previously been Red Tagged by the City and required
the Owner to abandon usage in the recent past now brought back for Short Term Lodging. The nuisance factor is HIGH.
I implore you to put a stop to the expansion of these practices by a small number of local and ABSENTEE LANDLORDS
and reign in the existing Short Term Lodging. Especially the ones that are causing grief & problems for their neighbors.
Please Vote IN the Short Term Lodging Revised Ordinance and enforce the existing Ordinances ones are already on the
books.
My regards,
Robb Ezzell

Please impose more restrictions on short term housing! I have lived next door to a duplex Airbnb for
over 5 years, and it has been horrible! There is noise (that police rarely issue citations for - because
they politely ask them to keep the noise down, and it starts again immediately after they leave... or
the police don't witness it because they came too late as noise is not a priority for them), smoke as
short term renters often smoke marijuana outside for hours at a time, trash as they typically leave red
solo cups around the sidewalk, and parking in my driveway to load and unload or blocking my
d riveway.
I did not buy a house next door to a motel, so why is it legal for my environment to change like
this???? I am on the inland side of PCH, which historically did not have short term rentals. It's one of
the reasons why I bought here and not closer to the water. I complained to the police, code
enforcement and the city council for years and nothing has changed. In a perfect world, there would
be no short term rentals less than 30 days on the inland side of PCH. Please protect people like me
who have to pay the price for the profit made from renting through Airbnb. Look at Palm Springs and
Palm Desert and follow their restrictions on short term rentals. This is Corona del Mar, a bedroom
community, not a short term rental haven. Anyone who has lived next door to a low rent short term
rental knows exactly what I mean; people come here for several nights to party at the beach and the
next door neighbors pay the price.

Mayor and Council Members Dixon, Brenner, Herdman, Avery, Duffield and Muldoon:
It has been many, many months that the issue of controlling STL uses and their many adverse impacts has been pending.
There has been exhaustive evidence and testimony from the Residents and regular Visitors concerning both the impacts
and their Voice
requesting Council action. The OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF RESIDENTS ARE IN FAVOR OF THE PROPOSED
ORDINANCE.This was demonstrated in testimony, and also through Community survey.
We respectfully ask that the Council PASS THE ORDINANCE NOW. There is No Reason NOT to pass it now.
as proposed by the Ad Hoc Committee and Staff for Council ratification at this evening's City Council session.
Most important:
1. Caps the total number of STLs which can be allowed and permitted in the City
2. Establishes 3 night minimum
3. Requires certain controls and compliance with local ordinances, and makes occupants, manager and owner
accountable
Technical issues associated with Transferrability can be readily addressed and resolved as a separate matter, while
awaiting or after the
CA Coastal Commission Hearing.
PLEASE LISTEN TO YOUR CONSTITUENTS AND RESPOND TO THEIR DESIRES( Election coming up)
4. Protect their quality of life and the character of our residential neighborhoods
5. Preserve property values
THANK YOU FOR LISTENING, AND YOUR PASSAGE OF THE ORDINANCE AT THIS AFTERNOON'S COUNCIL SESSION.

Mayor O'Neill and Council members,
The Short Term Lodging (STL) ordinance has been augmented with new restrictive conditions to control and
mitigate the negative impacts of Short Term Rentals on the quality of life in Newport Beach. We support
passage of the proposed STL ordinance under consideration by the City Council. Thanks for addressing
ordinances which prevent the erosion of the quality of life.

Subject: Newport Island STR's
Dear Newport Beach City Council Members,
As you continue to review the issue of short term rentals on Newport Island I want emphasize that the situation continues
to be a major problem.
When my wife and I purchased our home on Newport Island 6 1/2 years ago, our realtor from Burr -White directed us to
Newport Island stating that this is a great family friendly location unlike
the "war zone" across the bridge. The reason it is such a calm family location is because short term rentals are not
allowed on the island!! She stated the minimum rental is 1 month so you don't
get all the craziness associated with the short term crowds over in the "war zone".
This was the primary reason we selected Newport Island to purchase our home. Needless to say we have been shocked
by the proliferation of STR's on the Island over the past few years and the problems
that have arisen as a result. I have spoken out directly in front of the City Council on 2 occasions regarding this issue in
hopes they will get the fact that Newport Island is completely different than
the "war zone" and we want to keep it that way. I am very supportive of those that want investment property but let's
keep it to the 1 month minimum I was told when I purchased. By doing that, or following
the Santa Monica model requiring the homeowner to be on the premises, would accomplish both.
could go into the issues that STR's have caused us personally regarding beer cans in the gutter, trash on the street, loud
noise late at night, illegal parking, urinating on the street, numerous people sleeping in the
garage on air mattresses, etc, etc. but I know the City Council is already aware of these and other issues but it appears
they want to pretend it doesn't really happen.
I'm hoping that the Council can see that this Island is a place where people live and raise a family, not just a place to buy
an investment property to make a buck!
Thanks again,
Larry and Anna Robinson

Dear mayor councilpeople
I just had some dental work and may not be able to attend the meeting tonight 27 October
My previous email to you several months ago is attached
I urge you to vote banning the current restrictions of STIR not only on Newport Island but include the
entire peninsula
As you can read from my previous email i do live on Newport Island but And have been suffering for
many years from the STIR located at 308 &310 The Rialto this is a huge party house they do 24 hours STIR
to anyone age does not matter,have no respect for The noise they create and for years I've been calling
the police department they do nothing the last party they had there a month ago I counted 25 people in
the backyard and on the dock itself and I sent a video its run like a NO motel Its so run down and in the
worst condition you have ever seen! The owners og these 2 houses are never never use it all they do is
send in cleaning crew to hose down the trash! it's unbelievable and we look right in to these houses and
hear everything as of couse they sit in the backyard or on the dock almost all night in many days a week
even after the summer continues to go on and the police don't do anything and city Council don't do
anything it's time to do something I'm tired and my neighbors are tired of being kept up all night and not
being able to go to work or send her kids to school because were hung over from their noise from my
home Newport Island please please please help our neighbors and us it's time to do something about it
tonight and stop this
If you only include Newport Island will still be subjected to the terror of this two party houses please
please listen to us We are the property owners who love Newport Beach
Unlike property management companies they're worried about their bottom line and believe it will hurt
their business if you've been STR's
We am aware that other property management company well-known on the peninsula owned by Craig
Batley contributed to one of the councilman's campaign recently and has since changed his position STIR
We live in a democracy does not put up with bribery Please keep this in mind when you vote tonight
distinguished councilpeople and Distinguished let's hope that we can continue to call you a distinguished
counsel people and mayor

Dear mayor and honorable Councilman &Councilwoman
I have lived on the Newport island for five years and love it! It's so so special
It horrible with short term renters coming in droves more each year most reserved
Internet or Airbnb
everything about the peace quiet and caring neighbors and children that live is
destroyed by short term renters please don't fool yourself and come to party city noon
the party they have new management company responsible they reserved it over the
Internet and they just don't care (they stay up parting on there patios with zero respect
for there neighbors they work and need get up in the morning or children to have to get
up and go to school, The parking even with passes is out of control mini mini times I
come home and my garage is blocked and I have to call the police have to spend money
that's fair money to come out and cite them or Tow the vehicle
I live directly across across the Chanel from the infamous short term rentals in the are
308 & 310The Rialto for 2 rental properties side by side
Both are in terrible condition owned by one investor who will rent to 10 people or more,
I have reach out to him but no return calls.
If you looked into the NB Police logs the past 5 years I have been forced to call and
request police assistance, when usually does no good
I cannot control anything off Newport Island Parking I think it's important for you to go
and look into how they break the rules how the penalties are high enough anyways I
really thank you for listening to me I love living in this island I beg of you please do not
let short term rentals become what they are on the other side of the bridge on the
peninsula for your information I lived on the peninsula for over 40 years in this
wonderful city for over 60 years and I love it here and I think you for listening to me

Hello City Council,
I'm writing you a quick email regarding the STR enforcement vote pertaining to Newport Island, where I live
with my wife and seven-year-old son.
I sincerely hope that the City Council does the right thing tonight and passes what we have been talking
about and working on diligently for more than a year and a half to help alleviate the problem with STRs
here on the island.
At this point, I feel like a pathetic broken record, continually telling the same story over and over again.
What's more, I feel like a little doggie continually begging, begging, and begging for help. I can't beg
anymore. I'm thoroughly fatigued. If it doesn't pass, that's fine. At least we know that we need to move on,
which for us means moving off of what's become "Party Island." We're not going to raise our son in this
environment.
END STORY.
Thank you for your time,

As a resident of Newport Beach for over 47 years I am supporting the Short Term
Lodging ordinance proposal that is before the City Council. It is incumbent for the
Council members to retain the residential family ambiance of neighborhoods and
not allow short term/weekend rentals to bring a feeling of impermanence, crowding,
partying, and a "motel" atmosphere.
I hope the City Council will affirm the Short Term Lodging proposal at this
evening's meeting.

Dear Council Members,
As long time residents and property managers in Corona Del Mar, we are begging...
PLEASE VOTE YES TO SUPPORT THE SHORT TERM LODGING ORDINANCE!
We need regulation so that adjacent homes do not suffer diminished property values, loss of rental income
from our long term tenants due to the increased noise, parking problems and other neighborhood
disturbances that short term rentals cause in a dense residential neighborhood such as Corona Del Mar flower
streets.
Until you have lived it, you might not appreciate how these businesses in our neighborhood has eroded our
quality of life and our enjoyment of a peaceful home.
Again, we are begging for a YES vote from you so that there can be some reasonable regulation of this large
industry that has invaded our neighborhood.
Thank you for listening, I hope you have heard our plea.
With respect,

Dear Council Members,
Please vote for the proposed new regulations and amendments to our city charter regarding short term rentals.
These stronger regulations will not only bring order to neighborhoods, they will give owners advantageous city
regulations that they can point to as they negotiate short term rental agreements and they will provide owners with
tools with which they can seek help in controlling bad faith renters and in collecting fines for damages.
These regulations will also help the city to control short term rentals, legal and illegal, and set a limit to the number of
permits given by the city.
I know none of you want deplorable rental situations in your own neighborhoods and you have a duty to protect and
defend the neighborhoods of others.
Newport Beach needs to control the kinds and numbers of rentals in our city just as is done in other cities in our state
and in our country.
Please vote to pass the proposed amendments to our city charter and the proposed new regulations for short term
rentals.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Sharon Boles

Dear Council members,
I SUPPORT the STL ordinance that seeks to regulate short term vacation rentals. I live on the Peninsula and the know the
impact that short rentals can have on our eighborhoods. Newport Beach is evolving into a community of permanent
residents who shop regularly locally, who contribute their time and experience to community affairs and create stability
for our schools. Unfortunately many short term renters undercut those positive aspects of our community. We don't
like having them, their parties and their trash near our homes. Often the landlords whose profit interests may be at
odds with the goals of Newport Beach. Please support the ordinance and our community.

Dear City Council,
The Short Term Lodging Revised Ordinance is on your agenda tonight. I support this measure that is intended to help to
control the number of short term rentals in our city.
Newport Beach has become home to an alarming and growing number of these rental units. I believe they undermine
the quality of life in our city. Research shows that we have more of these than most other cities along our coast.
Please understand that I do support long term rentals. They help us provide affordable housing. Short term rentals do
not give us that benefit.

City Council Members,
I am a Newport Beach citizen and homeowner urging you to pass the STL ordinance that will reduce
the negative impacts of Short Term Rentals. Such rentals contribute to traffic, noise and litter, but
even more importantly, reduce the building of communities in which people know each other and
contribute to mutual well-being. That's not the direction we should be facilitating in Newport Beach. I
strongly urge you to pass this important ordinance.

HONORABLE MAYORAND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
I am a 20 year resident of Corona del Mar and writing to request your adoption of the more restrictive conditions on
Short Term Lodging, which provide more stringent requirements on Short Term Lodging.
The GIS mapping information provided by the City clearly indicate where there is a high concentration of Short Term
Lodging, there is also an increase in Police calls for "DISTURBANCE" It will help to control and mitigate the negative
impacts of Short Term Rentals on the quality of life in Newport Beach. The
Sincerely,
Jacqueline Peters

My family and I have lived in Corona del Mar for more than 30+ years. Our home is just above 5th
Avenue on Point del Mar in Corona del Mar. We are not in a "beach party area" such as Balboa
Island. Below us is a B & B rental. It is like a hotel. Most are quiet, but the renters are on vacation
and have different interests than a permanent family would have.
We cherish having a neighborhood and neighbors with community interests - not hotel guests. More
B & B's make housing shortages worst; they do not foster a community of families and family
activities.
The city has been too lax and gone much too far in allowing them. Please curtail them as much as
possible!

Thank you for protecting the neighborhoods as it relates specifically to Short Term Leasing STL where from past
experience changes the characteristics of the neighborhood.

I strongly support the passage of the proposed STL ordnance being considered by the City Council tonight.
I have my short term renters sign a document that outlines the expectations for their stay, which includes
bringing all parties inside by 10 pm and keeping the noise level down. The stipulation is that they will be
evicted if they do not comply. As a result my neighbors have said they hardly knew anyone was staying at
my home.
