City Council Committee Discussing Short Term Rental Units Wednesday

The City Council's Committee on Planning and Development will be continuing their conversation on a proposed ordinance regarding Short Term Rental Units (STRUs). Currently, Newburyport's zoning does not allow for an STRU use. The proposed amendments to our zoning would create an STRU use and allow for these units in Newburyport. The ordinance is accompanied by an ordinance creating a licensing process for STRUs as well. You can find more the proposed ordinances and additional information here. 

The meeting will take place at 6:30pm on Wednesday, October 18th. The ordinance could be considered by the full Council as early as October 30th. The posting for the meeting can be found here: https://www.cityofnewburyport.com/planning-development/events/341341
