The Scottsdale City Council is scheduled to consider new rules related to vacation and Airbnb rentals at its Sept. 24 meeting.
The proposed rules would impose fines on property owners of vacation and short-term rentals that have noisy and unruly parties.
Those property owners could face fines of $500, $1,250 and $2,500 if police are called because of noise or parties.
The city of Scottsdale held public meetings on short-term rentals in the run up to introduction of the new ordinance and fines.
Other cities, including Tempe, are also looking at changes to codes and rules to deal with short-term rentals.
As a result of that feedback the response fees were raised from $250, $1,000 and $1,500 to $500, $1,250 and $2,500.
