Summary

Council members unanimously adopted a moratorium on new short-term rental applications until Jan. 1, 2026, grandfathering existing rentals while the village completes its Master Plan review.

The council adopted a moratorium on new short-term rental applications through Jan. 1, 2026, with existing rentals grandfathered, citing concerns raised in a recent planning workshop and as the Master Plan is completed.

Councilmember Mike Botelho moved to adopt the moratorium; Nancy Thill seconded the motion and the council voted unanimously to approve the measure. The moratorium was framed by planning commissioners as a temporary pause to allow the Master Plan process to address resident concerns about short-term rentals.

The action preserves existing operations of currently permitted short-term rentals while blocking new applications until the stated date. The council did not record any amendments or exceptions in the minutes.
