Council grants tourist lodging permit to Patrick Dugan after owner completes permit requirements

The council approved a tourist lodging permit for a property owned by Patrick Dugan after city staff said the owner had submitted required documentation following an internal audit of short-term rentals.

Staff said the permit was identified during an audit of listings on online platforms. City staff notified property owners who did not have permits; the owner in this case submitted the required materials, including a health permit and seller’s permit identification, and complied with the city’s application requirements. City staff recommended approval and the council voted to grant the tourist lodging permit for the property.

Council discussion included a brief description of the property’s location (near the northeast corner of First) and confirmation that the property meets the city’s permitting requirements. The transcript did not record details about occupancy limits, inspection results, or permit duration beyond the council’s motion to approve the permit.

Staff said the permitting change resulted from a broader audit of short-term rental listings; the council’s action regularizes the property under the city’s tourist lodging rules.
