Staff recommends permit‑based approach for VRBOs; commission asks for draft ordinance in October

Staff told commissioners they had compared three approaches used elsewhere and recommended a permit process similar to Sioux Falls that would require applicants to demonstrate compliance with state sales tax registration and other checklist items before a local permit is issued. "So they basically, anybody who would like to do the VRBO would have to prove that they have all the the required state sales tax things with the state, all of those things," the staff member said.
