§ 1954.092. A motel or hotel shall not be designated as a nontransient motel or a nontransien

(a) A motel or hotel shall not be designated as a nontransient motel or a nontransient hotel pursuant to Section 310.4 of Chapter 3 (commencing with Section 301.1) of Part 2 of Title 24 (the California Building Standards Code) of the California Code of Regulations solely as a result of a shelter program participant’s occupancy in the motel or hotel beyond a 30-day period. (b) Notwithstanding subparagraph (B) of paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) of Section 1954.09, a hotel or motel shall not do either of the following: (1) (A) Adopt termination policies specifically for motel or hotel occupants who are shelter program participants that do not apply to other motel or hotel occupants who are not participating in a shelter program, impose restrictions on the ability of program participants to freely enter or exit the property or access certain areas or amenities of the property that do not apply to other motel or hotel occupants, or levy charges and fees, including fees for room card replacements, that do not apply to other motel or hotel occupants. (B) This paragraph sets minimum standards for shelter program terminations and shall not be construed to restrict shelter program operating standards that confer greater rights to participants with regard to shelter program terminations. (2) Require shelter program participants to check out and reregister, move out of rooms or between rooms, or from the hotel or motel while actively enrolled in the shelter program for the purposes of preventing an occupant from establishing rights of tenancy.
