If so, why? SHORT-TERM SINGLE-FAMILY RENTAL UPDATE During the February 25 City Council meeting, the Council also discussed short term rentals, or vacation rentals. It was determined that Staff will provide ordinance language to prohibit short-term rentals in the City. No action requested from the Planning Commission related to short-term rentals at this date. NEXT STEPS City Council will have another work session to review the Planning Commission input. Once there is consensus, Staff will draft ordinance language reflecting short-term and long-term rentals, which will be reviewed by Planning Commission during a Public Hearing and then proceed to City Council for formal consideration. In addition to possible future ordinance language modifications, staff has been examining the City’s codes related to rental housing and licensing, and has developed a lengthy list of updates and code changes to better (and more consistently) address the rental licensing process. These range from applicant requirements to specific maintenance standards, to process and penalties for non-compliance in the event the City is faced with a prospective landlord who works too hard to avoid the City’s policies.
