The San Antonio Zoning Board of Adjustment convened on September 22, 2025, to address several key issues impacting the city’s zoning regulations and compliance requirements for short-term rental (SDR) operators.
The meeting began with a discussion on the reporting obligations for SDR operators. It was emphasized that these operators must report their hot taxes to the City’s finance department on a monthly basis. This requirement includes submitting a report indicating zero revenue if no income is generated during that period. The finance department reiterated that all SDR operators are still obligated to file revenue reports and remit payments to Bexar County on a monthly basis.
A significant concern raised during the meeting was the absence of revenue reports from SDR operators for the period spanning August 2024 to February 2025. The finance department highlighted that these missing reports could lead to compliance issues and potential penalties for the operators involved.
The board concluded the meeting by stressing the importance of timely reporting and compliance with local regulations to ensure the integrity of the city’s revenue collection processes. Further discussions on enforcement measures and support for SDR operators are expected in future meetings.
