Can you BnB it in Yucaipa?
No STR ordinanceYucaipa has no city ordinance that addresses short-term rentals; the city's own development code contains no short-term rental chapter, and the county's short-term rental rules are part of the county code rather than the city's. The city taxes hotel stays by transients, defined as stays of thirty consecutive calendar days or less, at seven percent.
