The commission voted 7–0 to approve a four-bedroom short-term rental at 3700 South Randall Drive, clarifying occupancy as 8 adults (10 total). Applicants said they had operated during the World Cup with few issues and would continue to target families and tournament visitors.

The Independence Planning Commission approved a short-term rental at 3700 South Randall Drive, with a clarified occupancy limit of eight adults (ten people total), in a unanimous vote.

Staff described a bilevel home with four bedrooms and recommended limiting adults to eight (10 total including children under local counting rules). Co-owner Laura Jacoby told the commission the operators complied with fire and noise-monitoring requirements, used Ring cameras for front-door monitoring and had remitted transient-tax forms for June. Jacoby said they marketed to families and event visitors and had little direct interaction with World Cup guests, who typically book and communicate through the platform.

After a brief discussion about occupancy language and marketing plans, commissioners voted to approve the short-term rental and the clarified occupancy limits. Staff will maintain records of licensing and tax remittance and follow up if neighbors report issues.
