Board asked to dissolve Short‑Term Rental Committee after committee recommendation
Summary
Chet Vela, CDS director, said the Short‑Term Rental Committee voted 5–0 to recommend approval of its work and asked the board to approve a resolution to dissolve the volunteer committee; membership has declined and staff plans a July public review at the planning commission.
Chet Vela, CDS director, told the board the Short‑Term Rental Committee has finished its assigned work and asked the board to approve a resolution to dissolve the volunteer committee.
Vela said the committee was created in March 2024 and its duties were expanded in April 2025 to draft a short‑term rental regulation code. He told the board the committee voted 5–0 in December 2025 to recommend approval of its work and "Therefore, their work is done." He asked the board to approve a resolution to dissolve the committee.
Board members asked how many people had served on the committee. Vela said membership had declined from about nine or ten initially to roughly five at the last meeting, a drop he attributed to members stepping away as stricter regulations were developed. Vela said staff plans to bring the code revisions before the planning commission in July to begin the public review process.
A motion to approve the resolution to dissolve the Short‑Term Rental Committee was raised during the meeting. The transcript records that the board planned to "pick this back up after the update" and does not record a formal vote or final outcome on the resolution. Next procedural steps identified in the discussion were staff review and the planning commission public‑review process in July.
