Corral de Tierra: County Reviewed Vacation-Rental Permit at 376 Corral de Tierra Road

CORRAL DE TIERRA, Monterey County — October 29, 2026. Monterey County’s April 9, 2026 Zoning Administrator agenda addressed an after-the-fact commercial vacation-rental permit for one existing residence at 376 Corral de Tierra Road, Unit 2. The application is PLN230348 / ZA 26-038, a different property and enforcement file from the vacation-rental case at number 503.

What did county staff propose?

Staff recommended a conditional use permit for short stays of 30 days or fewer. The submitted operations plan specified up to seven overnight guests and ten daytime guests, with one rental agreement at a time. Staff also described conditions restricting event-venue use and requiring compliance with county noise and vacation-rental regulations.

Why was this an after-the-fact permit?

The county report describes code-enforcement correspondence and a later administrative citation concerning the alleged unpermitted use, with planning compliance cases identified as 23CE00379 and 26CE00026. These are county administrative records. They are not evidence of a criminal conviction, and the article makes no independent allegation beyond what county staff documented.

Was the property approved for rentals?

The hearing file records the April 9 discussion and staff recommendation of nine conditions. A recommendation alone does not establish full satisfaction of all permit, licensing and inspection requirements. Residents checking present-day operations should request the signed decision, any appeal and compliance information directly from the county.
