Sacramento has STR rules but appears to have few complaints and thus has had little motivation to engage in enforcement:

As of late September, the City of Sacramento has only issued 68 permits, despite the existence of hundreds of ads for listings in Sacramento on sites like Airbnb, Vrbo, and HomeAway.
Sacramento has the power to fine owners who break the rules $250 a day. We’ve learned in 20 months since the rules went into effect, the city has not fined one person.
Kurtis Ming: “Why have rules in place, if you’re not enforcing them?”
Brad Wasson, Revenue Manager City of Sacramento: “We will enforce them.”
Ming: “But you haven’t been enforcing them?”
Wasson: “We haven’t had a lot of complaints. We’ve only had 15 complaints.”
