Re
Vacation Rentals - Interpretation and Implementation
Submitted For:
Rebecca Grohall

SUBJECT:

Interpretation and Implementation of Section 22-3 and Definitions & Section 22-22 Vacation Rentals

SUMMARY:

  • The City Commission, on October 15th, 2001, adopted Ordinance K-114, amending Sections 22-3 of the City Code to update the definition of “Dwelling” as to exclude rentals for designated period, further providing a definition of “Dwelling rental” and allowing for application as Conditional Use in R-1 & R-2 Zones. Ordinance K-114 originated from citizen concerns over the rental of single-family homes as transient lodging on a weekly and, in some cases, daily basis.
  • The City Commission, in 2007, adopted the South Beach Overlay District via Ordinance K-441, which further clarified that dwelling unit(s) were intended for owner occupancy or non-transient lodging.
  • The City Commission, on November 4th, 2013, adopted Ordinance L-295, which relocated all of the permitted and conditional uses for all of the zoning districts into a single, combined Use Table.
  • The adoption of the Use Table, in its current form, presents a prohibition on dwelling rentals within all residential districts, with the exception of the R-1 & R-2 zones which the use may be pursued via conditional use.
  • The current State Statutes regarding vacation rentals, and 2013 amendment of regulations provided within the Use Table restrict the City’s capacity to limit or enforce a prohibition on dwelling rentals within the E-3, R-3, R-4, R-4A, and R-5, therefore the districts are eligible for such use. Vacation rentals within the R-1 & R-2 zones may be pursued via conditional use.
