Short-term Rentals

Proposed regulations for short-term rentals were approved by City Council. A short-term rental is defined as renting for less than 28 days.

Staff recommendations to limit the use of short-term rental providers (such as Airbnb) to a person’s ‘principal residence’ were adopted.

A limit of 180 days per year was also placed on the rental of an entire home, while a room or portion of a home was not limited.
