Ocean Beach Slumlord Micky Mills Able to Obtain 115 Licenses Due to Loop Holes
Some have thought that Councilmember Jen Campbell had reformed and sanded off some of her rough edges, but after Thursday's Community and Neighborhood Services Committee, which she chairs, those thoughts crashed and burned.
Because it’s been a little over a year since the requirements imposed by the City to license short-term rentals went into effect, it was time for the committee to review the results of the STRO and pass on any recommendations for improving the ordinance to the full Council.
Current regulations allow just one license per owner/ person, and a citywide cap limits the short-term rental of entire homes to no more than 1 percent of the city’s housing stock (not including Mission Beach, which has a much higher cap of 30 percent). At the meeting, city staff gave committee members an update on a year’s worth of city enforcement efforts, plus the members got an earful of public comments and presentations, including from OB's own Planning Board.
