Committee amends April minutes after Buffalo City denies plan to regulate Airbnbs
Summary
The Health and Human Services and Veterans Service Committee approved an amendment to April minutes after Buffalo City officials asked that a line saying the city planned an ordinance to halt new Airbnbs be removed. The motion to amend passed unanimously.
The Health and Human Services and Veterans Service Committee on Aug. 6 amended its April 2, 2026 minutes after a Buffalo City clerk raised concerns about a passage alleging the city planned to restrict short-term rentals.
Jenny Ehlenfeldt, a clerk from Buffalo City, emailed committee staff asking that the line reading “Buffalo City is working on an ordinance in place to halt any new Air B&B’s” be removed because, she said, the city had not proposed and did not plan to propose such a regulation. On a motion by Dwight Ruff and a second from Gary Stanton, the committee voted to amend the April minutes as presented; the motion carried.
The committee also approved the June 4, 2026 draft minutes on a motion by Ruff with a second from Stanton. Neither the committee nor staff provided additional detail about how the April language first appeared in the minutes. The amendment resolves the record to reflect Buffalo City’s statement that it has not pursued short-term rental regulation.
