What’s in it

AI summary Currently, cities and counties are not allowed to make rules or charge fees for short-term rental properties. This bill would change that rule so it only applies to cities and counties with more than 75,000 people. This means larger cities and counties would be allowed to regulate these rentals and require permits or fees.1
