Los Angeles City Attorney Heidi Feldstein Soto announced settlements in lawsuits alleging violations of the city's short‑term rental and party‑house ordinances. According to the announcement, illegal short‑term rentals occurred at one complex for more than 3,000 nights since late 2020, generating nuisance activity and neighbor complaints.
City Attorney Soto said the housing at the complex falls under the Los Angeles Rent Stabilization Ordinance, which bars it from participating in the city's home‑sharing program. As part of the settlement, the litigants agreed to pay civil penalties and are prohibited from violating the home‑sharing ordinance at any properties they manage or own, the office said.
The City Attorney’s release directed readers to additional information on the office website. The transcript did not specify the settlement amounts, the identity of the litigants, or any court filings; those details were described as available through the city attorney’s news page.
The settlement announcement was presented as an enforcement outcome by the City Attorney’s office; no new ordinance or council action was recorded during the segment.
