The Ordinance Review Committee met in person in City Hall Room 326 (Council Members Hertzberg and Wiederkehr) and by Zoom (Council Member Scroggin). Council Member Jones was absent. Council Member Harvey was present to participate in the discussion. After a quorum was established, the Chair Hertzberg called the meeting to order. 2. The only item of old business on the Committee's agenda was the City's short term rental regulations. Assistant City Attorney Blake Pennington went through the amendments proposed by staff based on the recommendations made by the committee at the November 16 meeting. Council Member Scroggin raised a concern about how we treat STRs similarly across the City because it seems that they are only denied when neighbors come out in opposition. Jonathan Curth, Development Services Director, gave a brief history of the development of the initial STR ordinance. He also described how the 2% cap became part of the ordinance. Council Member Wiederkehr has concerns about the 2% cap — both that it is too high and that it does not include the STRs in zoning districts that allow STRs by right. Scroggin said he has heard from STR operators that some rentals are not bringing in as much as long term rentals and that we might be reaching the point of saturation in the market. Planning Commissioner Jimm Garlock addressed the committee about his concern that affordable rentals are being removed from the market to turn them into STRs. He supports dropping the 2% cap. He supports the list of factors in 163.18(H) and would add trash issues as well. Planning Commission Mary Madden addressed the Committee and discussed the value of the factors to consider for compatibility and the importance of enforcement. She thinks we are placing a higher priority on out of town guests than Fayetteville residents. She noted that there are several type 2 STRs near her house and within walking distance of a neighborhood that are vacant more than half the time. These could be filled by families with children who could walk to school. She says there should be an easy way for neighbors to file a complaint and for fines to be issued. She is concerned that some more desirable neighborhoods are carrying the burden for the City since the 2% cap is city-wide and not by neighborhood. Mailing Address: 113 W. Mountain Street www.fayetteville-ar.gov Fayetteville, AR 72701 The Committee had a discussion about enforcement issues. We have issues with enforcement on the weekends especially. There is a need for a staff member charged with enforcement over the weekend. It could possibly be solved by having on -call employees for that time period. The Committee suggested adding STIR violations to See.Click.Fix or another place on the City website or phone number. Harvey recommended creating a compatibility matrix to score STIR applications. The Committee and members of the public discussed the factors that should be included. That could include adequate trash services, more specific density provisions, applying the density restrictions to smaller areas rather than city-wide, or limiting the number of licenses to a specific number. Hertzberg asked on behalf of Council Member Turk if we could turn some of the regulations into a more readable matrix and reducing the sunset extension to six months rather than twelve months. The Committee voted unanimously to forward the staff -proposed amendments to the City Council with a recommendation of approval. The Committee continued discussing possible amendments on density/numbers of STRs. The density cap could be applied by ward — Commissioner Madden said that Ward 2 seems to bear the greatest burden and the other wards have far fewer STRs. 1 % would be 447 licenses. 3. The Committee voted unanimously to approve the minutes from the November 16, 2022 meeting. 4. The Committee agreed to meet again on November 30 at 3:00 pm to consider the amendments drafted by staff. 5. There being no new business for the committee to consider, Chair Hertzberg adjourned the meeting around 4:50 pm. 2 CITY OF FAYETTEVILLE ARKANSAS MINUTES Ordinance Review Committee Meeting Wednesday, November 16, 2022 Hybrid — Room 326 and Zoom 1. The four members of the Ordinance Review Committee met in person in City Hall Room 326 (Council Members Scroggin and Wiederkehr) and by Zoom (Council Members Hertzberg and Jones). After a quorum was established, the Committee nominated and elected Council Member Holly Hertzberg as the Chair for 2022. 2. The only item of business on the Committee's agenda was the City's short term rental regulations. Jonathan Curth, Development Services Director, provided an overview of the current issues and potential remedies being recommended by staff. Britin Bostick, Long Range Planning/Special Projects Manager provided additional information about the current regulations. Chair Hertzberg opened the floor for discussion by the Committee members. Scroggin stated that he wants to see fines for non-compliance and the option to shut off water to non -compliant STRs. He wants to keep the conditional use permit requirement for residential zones but would be fine removing it for mixed -use and commercial zones. He believes we need better rules to protect neighborhoods and an easier process for revoking a CUP. He also thinks the fees for STRs are inadequate and would support raising fees rather than setting a cap on the number of STRs. He suggested that an STIR approval board could be established rather than making the Planning Commission handled all of the requests. Wiederkehr said that fees need to match the services being provided and that we should not be subsidizing these businesses — the fee should be 100% cost recovery. He would like to see an outside entity managing this work and for that cost to be borne by the STRs. He wants to extend the sunset provision rather than eliminate it and agrees that the CUP process needs more clarification and nuance about where STRs should be allowed by right. The community has said they don't want an overabundance in any neighborhood and that we should look for an objective threshold to limit the number. We need a bigger hammer for compliance and that could include utility shutoffs. He is also concerned about ensuring we are collecting HMR taxes. Chair Hertzberg suggested considering a 2% cap in the downtown area and another 2% outside of that area. Wiederkehr suggesting using census tracts to set caps. Scroggin was concerned that limiting STRs by neighborhood could mean we are limiting them in walkable areas. Mailing Address: 113 W. Mountain Street www.fayetteville-ar.gov Fayetteville, AR 72701 The Committee discussed factors that could be considered by the Planning Commission to approve including street width, availability of sidewalks and on -street parking, benefits to the neighborhood, and accessibility. Jonathan Curth said that the current fees for STRs, including the CUP process and the business license process, are lower than the actual cost of staff time. Based on their calculations, they could justify a CUP application fee of $200, an initial business license fee of $50 and a business license renewal fee of $50. Chair Hertzberg then allowed public comment. City Clerk Treasurer Kara Paxton commented that the appeals process seems to be difficult for some applicants. Tom Overbey made suggestions about administering Type 1 STRs. He said the current method of proving the owner resides in the unit is inadequate. He suggested asking for an Arkansas drivers license, resident income taxes, Arkansas vehicle license, and proof that no homestead exemption is claimed elsewhere. He said rather than requiring them to send copies to the City they could be required to sign an affirmation. Logan Humphrey owns an STR management company with 45 units in Fayetteville. He liked the idea of an STR approval committee. He agrees that the CUP and business license requirements are reasonable. He said that the cost of third party host compliance software would be more than the revenue obtained from non -compliant properties. He suggested using the 2% cap rather than the CUP process. The Committee voted unanimously to recommend the following amendments to the City Code and Unified Development Code: • Increase the CUP application fee to $200; increase the initial business license fee and renewal fee to $50 each. • Require a CUP in residential zones but remove it for mixed use and non-residential zones. • Provide a list of factors and conditions that should be considered by the Planning Commission and, on appeal, by the City Council for STRs requiring CUPs. • Extend the sunset provision to December 31, 2023. The Committee wants to continue discussing and considering additional amendments on the following issues: • Third party host compliance/collectors • Density caps based on neighborhoods • Additional non-compliance penalties • Instituting fees for appeals 3. The Committee agreed to meet again on November 30 at 3:00 pm to consider the amendments drafted by staff. 4. There being no new business for the committee to consider, Chair Hertzberg adjourned the meeting around 6:30 pm. 2 IN OFFICE OF THE CITY ATTORNEY TO: FROM: DATE: RE: DEPARTMENTAL CORRESPONDENCE 1 Kit Williams City Attorney Blake Pennington Assistant City Attorney Mayor Jordan Jodi Batker City Council Paralegal Blake Pennington, Assistant City Attu December 8, 2022 Potential Amendments to Short Term Rental Regulations from Council Member Wiederkehr Attached are two amendments to the short term rental regulations that are being sponsored by Council Member Wiederkehr for the full City Council's consideration. The first amendment would change the city-wide density cap in Section 118.01 of the City Code for Type 2 short term rentals from 2% of dwelling units (approximately 894 as of today) to 550 dwelling units. It would also remove the exemption for Type 2 short term rentals in zoning districts that allow hotels and motels by right. The Ordinance Review Committee had some discussions about modifications to the density provisions but did not reach any consensus. The second amendment is supplemental to the amendments proposed by the Ordinance Review Committee for Section 163.18 of the Unified Development Code. This amendment would reduce the occupancy limit for Type 2 short term rentals in residential zones to the limit of the underlying zone plus one. Currently the ordinance allows 2 people per bedroom plus 2. The proposed amendment would allow Type 2 short term rentals to have up to 4 unrelated people in a single family zoning district and up to 5 in a multi -family zoning district. 118.01- Applicability (E) Short -Term Rentals.
