Truckee, Placer, and El Dorado counties are trying to get AirBnB to pull listings while shelter-in-place is in order.
California Tahoe communities need cooperation from Nevada to have truly effective orders.

You mean Air BnB owners going rogue.Tahoe region made it into a British newspaper today.
Sounds like a lot airB&Bs and vacation rentals are going forward.
The restrictions may not be enforced.

You would think Air BnB would be able to update their software to code to restrict reservations for CA properties to state something like "We're sorry, but properties are not available due to Governor Newsom's stay-at-home order"looks that way

.....but they like to continue to make money off of each reservation.
I can see some owners of VRBO or air B&B properties who are desperate for money then contacting the cancelled guestsWe made plans months ago to be in SoCal this week. VRBO sent us notice and a refund as soon as this most recent shelter-in-place order happened. We didn’t have any other choice.
AirBnB could absolutely do the same thing. Truckee city, Placer, and El Dorado county officials implored the company to do so, but to no avail.
There is a phone app for CA. It claims to respect privacy -no name, no contact info, no location/movement tracking, no identity of anyone you meet. "Once you activate CA Notify, it does all the work. All you do is keep your Bluetooth on. You will only receive alerts if you were in close contact with someone who tests positive for COVID-19. Your privacy is protected as your identity is not known and your location is not tracked. "
Oh crap. The state just reduced the travel distance from 150 mile to 120 mile:

Great news but inaccurate- the entire SoCal region is still under stay at home orders... not just Los Angeles.
