Council keeps short‑term rental ban at first reading and seeks public feedback

Macedonia City Council · January 9, 2026

Summary

Ordinance 86, which would limit or prohibit short‑term rentals such as Airbnb in Macedonia, was left at first reading so the council and law department can obtain community input and conduct further review.

Ordinance 86 — a proposal to limit or prohibit short‑term rentals such as Airbnb — was introduced by council and described as having been circulated since December. The law department told council it had not completed a detailed review and recommended leaving the item at first reading to give residents and council time to study and comment.

Councilors said they had not received substantial public feedback yet and several members expressed a preference for community input before approving any restrictions. One councilor summarized the gist of the proposal as preventing short‑term rentals and said the council would welcome ideas from residents either directly to members or via the clerk.

No amendments were adopted at the meeting; the ordinance remains at first reading pending additional legal review and public comment.
