Pasco council to consider rules for short-term rentals after preview notes no current oversight
Summary
City staff previewed a workshop discussion on short-term rentals, saying Pasco currently lacks permits, licenses, inspections or parking rules for platforms such as Airbnb and Vrbo and that the council could act to protect renters and neighbors.
Pasco City Council will hear a presentation and discussion about short-term rentals at its June 8 workshop, the city said. Alyssa Warner, communications coordinator, said "right now, Pasco doesn't have rules for short term rentals," and spelled out what that means in practice: "no permits, no licenses, no inspections, and no parking restrictions."
Warner said council could decide to change that "as a way to protect renters and neighbors alike." The preview did not specify particular regulatory options, permit types, or enforcement mechanisms; those details will be part of the workshop discussion and any subsequent proposals brought to the council.
The city encouraged public participation during the workshop; members of the public who want to comment will have an opportunity to speak during the meeting. Warner directed viewers to the full agenda on pasco-wa.gov for more information.
