capacity and occupancy regulations. <br />The Board discussion continued regarding comparisons of <br />the proposed parking regulation ordinance to other <br />property restrictions, and several Board Members <br />mentioned that the real issue was events, and not parking. <br />The Chairman opened the floor to the Public. <br />Joseph Paladin, President of Black Swan Consulting, and <br />Atlantic Coast Construction, wanted to know how the <br />Board would count the cars at vacation rentals in a mixed <br />use project, and learned that the Associations within those <br />projects have their own parking regulations. <br />Glenn Powell, 1284.5,Bay Street, Roseland, did not think <br />parking regulations were sufficient, and believed that the <br />renters would find ways to work around the Ordinance. <br />He thought the big issue was the number of people, and <br />suggested limiting the number of people that can occupy a <br />vacation rental at any given time. <br />Commissioner Flescher agreed; however, Deputy County <br />Attorney Bill DeBraal stated that staff found it to be easier <br />to enforce parking regulations, than event regulations. He <br />encouraged the Board to focus on events as another issue. <br />The Board continued discussing the enforcement issue. <br />Commissioner Flescher stated earlier and reiterated that <br />the County needed to prevent events at vacation rentals. <br />Emergency Services Director John King advised the Board <br />that residences are only discussed through code <br />enforcement, and not under fire regulations. For <br />residences operating as a business, he said that the County <br />would need additional regulations. He pointed out that a <br />number of vacation rental owners were not applying for a <br />business license. Without a separate County ordinance, he <br />would have very little influence. <br />Fire Marshal John Duran responded to questions on <br />occupancy loads in residences. <br />Joseph Paladin saw no difference in a short term rental <br />and a Bed and Breakfast. <br />David Hunter, 3702 Eagle Drive, Vero Beach, pointed out <br />Board of County Commissioners Meeting <br />May 5, 2015 Page 11 <br />ATTACHMENT 2 <br />102 <br />
