Oakland CA regulations and zoning

Is there anyone on Oakland CA that can help me navigate the business rules here? I have tried to contact their office, but it has not been very useful. I'm looking to get clarity for zoning and length of stays. The zoning office told me the minimum stay allowed was 30 days unless I had a hotel, motel or b&B licence. I have seen 7 days before and on their website, but could not find the place again now. Is there anyone who can help me navigate this?

 

Thank you!

@Anthony1611 - I'd love to get your help. I'm about to launch a unit in Oakland and I definitely want to make sure to follow the rules correctly. Where should I begin?

What is in this site appears to be relatively specific. See if you can pick anything up from it!

Sorry I don't have any first hand knowledge.

Following this thread since I'm considering short term rentals in Oakland. Hopefully we can figure this out together because it's difficult to find this information online.
