The rules, with their sources

Permit or licenseA permit or license is required before operating.L130-591 · code text · checked 2026-09-15
Caps and limitsWe have not yet been able to read the full text of 30-591, so any night or permit caps are unknown.L1Pomona City Code Ch. 30, Art. VIII, Div. 5, secs. 30-590 to 30-592 · code text · checked 2026-09-15
Transfer when the home sellsStill not verified. The whole transfer clause could not be read: the content API returns Chapter 30 as one blob truncating at 30-576 in both the division-node and section-node fetches. A relevance search for 'transferable' (98 hits, page 1 of 10 reviewed) surfaced no hit in 30-590 to 30-592, which weakly suggests the division may not use the word transferable, but transfer language could use other wording (sale, conveyance, assignment, runs with the land), so this is not proof of absence. Treat as unknown until 30-591 full text is read.L1Pomona City Code Ch. 30, Art. VIII, Div. 5, secs. 30-590 to 30-592 · code text · checked 2026-09-15
