(A) This subchapter provides regulations and design standards for residential short-term rentals (STRs) for single-family and multiple-family neighborhoods. These standards seek to allow for STRs while also protecting the safety and general welfare of the city residents and preserving the residential character of city neighborhoods.
(B) In allowing STRs, this section provides existing property homeowners economic relief who might otherwise be forced to leave a neighborhood, thus promoting and preserving affordable housing in the city. This section is designed, and its purpose is, to stabilize neighborhoods by promoting home ownership.
