RE: Council Member Stafford Amendment to Short Term Rental Ordinance
Council Member Stafford is proposing an amendment to Item D.6 on the agenda
tonight, which is the ordinance adding proximity to schools as a factor for the
Planning Commission to consider when reviewing a Type 2 short-term rental
conditional use permit.
The effect of this amendment would be to leave the four considerations as they are
and create a prohibition on new conditional use permits for Type 2 short-term
rentals if the proposed property is within 1,000 feet of any public or private K-12
school.
