Unhosted Stay Short-Term Rentals in the Downtown Specific Plan / OMC Chapter 5.15 Text Amendment
Description
The council introduced an ordinance allowing unhosted short-term rentals and vacation rentals downtown, cutting the cap from 15 to 10 permits, banning special events and big-vehicle parking, requiring neighbor notices, and adding SB 346 tracking — with a one-year review as a pilot. Second reading still to come.
Impact summary
Visitors get more places to stay during downtown events instead of leaving their money in neighboring cities; neighbors get new rules, notices, and a one-year check on problems like parking and parties.
