Home

Recommendation #16 Recommend amending Section 25-4-16.20(4) to remove the "public list" and replace it with "database". Reason: This provision will allow for staff to create an online database with the required information that could be easily accessed by members of the public. Recommendation #17 Under Section 25-4-16.27, consider deleting the word "hosted". Reason: The current code allows for the Planning Director to restore existing transient accommodations that have been impacted by natural or manmade disasters to be relocated. This provision will continue to allow the Planning Director the authority to relocate any nonconforming use transient accommodation rental that could be impacted by a disaster. Recommendation #18 Under Section 25-4-17.4(a), consider removing the requirement that a notice of violation be sent in writing within ten days of the occurrence of a violation and replace it with the provision that the notice be sent within ten days of the directors determination that a violation has been committed. Reason: Over the past few years there has been an increase in the submittal of complaints and the assigned inspectors have needed additional time to compile information for just one complaint. It is the Department's full intention to complete these reviews as expeditiously as possible, but this added time will bring relief during the times of increased complaint submittals and will allow for additional time to review complicated complaints. Housekeeping Recommendation #19 Add "Transient Accommodation Rentals, Operator -hosted" as a permitted use in the following sections: Article 5, Division 1, Section 25-5-3(a)(14) (Single -Family Residential Districts), Division 2, Section 25-5-22(a)(16) (Double -Family Residential Districts), Division 3, Section 25-5-32(a)(20) (Multiple -Family Residential Districts), Division 4, Section 25-5-42(a)(24) (Residential -Commercial Mixed Use Districts), Division 9, Section 25-5-92(a)(36) (Resort -Hotel Districts), Division 10, Section 25-5- 102(a)(37) (Neighborhood Commercial Districts), Division 11, Section 25-5-112(a)(55) -23-
