Consideration of Proposed Parking Regulations for Vacation Rentals <br /> ("Ordinance 1"); Amending Land Development Regulations Chapters 901 <br /> (Definitions), 911 (Zoning), and 912 (Single-Family Development) <br /> (Legislative] <br /> i <br /> Mr. Boling presented a PowerPoint presentation, a copy of which is on file <br /> in the Commission office. He discussed the fact that in 2011, the State pre- <br /> empted local government regulations regarding vacation rentals and the Board of <br /> County Commissioners adopted a code change in 2012 specifying that vacation <br /> rentals are treated the same as conventional residences. Since that time, Code <br /> Enforcement has received several complaints regarding parking and the BCC <br /> directed staff to initiate the adoption process for special parking regulations for <br /> vacation rentals. In addition, a Short Term Vacation Rental Advisory Committee <br /> was established in July 2015. <br /> i <br /> Mr. Boling went on to review Proposed Ordinance #1, clarifying that it does <br /> not change existing parking allowances for conventional residences. For vacation <br /> rentals, parking would be limited to the number of carport/garage spaces plus <br /> one space per bedroom, not to exceed five spaces outside. For rentals with no <br /> carport/garage, parking would be limited to two spaces plus one space per <br /> bedroom, not to exceed five spaces outside. There was also a provision for <br /> "excess spaces" for larger parcels. He pointed out some of the concerns from <br /> "interested parties" thus far. <br /> Chairman Polackwich voiced his concern with the ordinance regarding the i <br /> definition of "vacatiori rental", particularly when the homeowner also lives in the <br /> residence. The homeowner wouldn't have the same parking privileges as his <br /> neighbor whenever he's living in his home. <br /> PZC/Approved 5 August 13, 2015 <br /> 207 <br /> ATTACHMENT <br />
