Owners at Sentinel Drive allowed to reapply July 1 after removing listing and canceling rentals
Summary
Karina Daza and Casey Porter removed an online listing and stopped hosting after a March notice of violation for 207 Sentinel Drive; the board allowed them to reapply for a short‑term rental permit starting July 1 after hearing there were no stays after the stop‑work order and no neighbor complaints.
Metro codes staff identified an Airbnb advertisement for 207 Sentinel Drive in late December 2025 and documented stays; an inspector posted a stop‑work order and the owners removed the ad and changed their listing to a 30‑night minimum. Appellants Karina Daza and Casey Porter said they live at the property full time and rented the downstairs unit briefly after job loss created an urgent financial need; they immediately ceased hosting after the stop‑work notice.
Neighbors were not present to oppose and staff recorded no Hub Nashville complaints related to the property. The board discussed the facts, noting that unlike some contested cases there were no written complaints from adjacent residents and the applicants removed listings after notice. The board allowed the applicants to reapply for a permit starting July 1, reiterating that operation prior to a valid permit remains prohibited.
The board’s vote instructs applicants to follow standard documentation, inspection and notification procedures for any future application.
