Board keeps infants counted in STR occupancy limits after brief debate

Union County STR Board members debated whether infants should count toward occupancy limits in the county's short-term rental ordinance and ultimately agreed to keep the current language. AnaLuisa Salvatti argued that "counting an infant will hinder business," expressing concern about practical impacts on hosts. David Dyer countered that "fire and life-safety standards may also count an infant as a person," noting consistency with safety codes.
