September 21, 2015 <br /> TO: INDIAN RIVER COUNTY COMMISSIONERS <br /> Gentlemen: <br /> Please be advised that there are many objections and complaints <br /> associated with the problem of Vacation Rentals on the Barrier Island. <br /> i' <br /> With the current lack of ordinances and restrictions, the vacation rental <br /> problem has mushroomed to make single family residential living very <br /> problematic. It is virtually destroying the way of life which we have <br /> enjoyed as single family property owners. <br /> Daily, weekly and monthly rentals have invaded our previously enjoyed <br /> single family neighborhoods. The county restriction of one single, <br /> related family occupants has never been enforced. Persons of <br /> unrelated status of 8, 10 or more occupants are found in the vacation <br /> rental homes. No enforcement exists. <br /> i <br /> Trash stays out in the road for several days waiting for the next pickup <br /> when the renters move out. They also leave trash, beer cans and <br /> cigarette butts on the beach and on the walkways to the beach. <br /> Some monitoring is needed to enforce landlords to obtain the State <br /> License for vacation rentals. Many do not report the tourist tax which <br /> is required for transient rentals. <br /> Section 4 of the proposed parking ordinance should be deleted. This is <br /> extremely ambiguous and will not produce the intended results. Who <br /> I �� <br />
