Notice to Property Managers and Rental Owners:
Earlier this week the City prohibited new short term rental check-ins until April 30th,
2020. Since that time, numerous reports have come in that rental contracts are being
issued for 30 days even for stays of one week or less. Please be advised that issuing
fraudulent 30 day contracts is a basis for revocation of a rental license or other
actions. Also, the Mayor is prepared to issue further orders to restrict all rentals to non
residents (short or long term) for the duration of the COVID-19 emergency or take
other measures to stop actions taken to circumvent the law. The City halted check ins
to limit the spread of a dangerous virus that has put countless lives in danger and is
prepared to take more stringent action should further abuses be documented.
