Summary

The Norton Shores City Council voted 0-9 on July 21 to defeat a proposed amendment to Section 48-1163 of the municipal code concerning short-term rentals; proponents offered no council votes in support during the roll call.

Council Member Sowa moved to amend Section 48-1163 of the Code of Ordinances to change short-term rental rules; Council Member Kasher supported the motion. The proposal failed on a 0-9 roll call vote, with no council member voting in favor.

The minutes do not record debate or proposed specific text changes beyond the motion's introduction. Because the amendment failed at introduction, no new enforcement guidance or regulatory change will move forward from this meeting; the record shows the council declined to advance the ordinance amendment at this time.
