Short Term Rentals in Principle Residences Only ?

Council is looking into limiting short term rentals to principle residences only.This would have quite an effect as many short term rentals are owned by people out side of the community and some outside of the country. Your thoughts please.....

"THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT District staff report to Council as soon as

possible on the feasibility of

enforcing current Bylaws pertaining to the issues of short term rentals in Tofino;

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT Council direct staff to investigate the impact of

allowing short term rentals in principle residences only "
