Title

Discussion and possible action on staff recommendations for the regulation of short-term rentals within unincorporated Washoe County, including either confirming the policy recommendations or providing additional policy direction prior to staff bringing back specific ordinance language. Short-term rentals are a type of temporary lodging of brief duration operated out of private residences such as homes, apartments and condos. They are commonly made available through property management companies and online booking services, and are also referred to as vacation rentals that are generally booked for fewer than 28-days. And, pursuant to Washoe County Code (WCC) Sections 2.030 and 110.818.05, possible action to initiate amendments to Chapter 110 (Development Code), Chapter 25 (Business Licenses, Permits and Regulations) and Chapter 125 (Administrative Enforcement Code) to create the necessary code language to facilitate the Board’s policy direction. This includes, but is not limited to, the establishment of definitions, standards, location limitations, occupancy limits, parking requirements, safety/security considerations, signage, noise thresholds, trash/garbage collection rules, insurance requirements, county staffing levels, Tahoe area considerations, permitting requirements, enforcement process, fees, fines, and penalties associated with short-term rentals, as well as the resolution of discrepancies that may arise within existing WCC chapters as a result of any new code language.  Community Services.
