Short Term Rental - Public Hearing Wednesday 5:00pm

The City of Miami Beach Commission will meet Wednesday February 25th at 5:00pm for a Public Hearing and vote on Short Term Rentals in single family neighborhoods.

Please:
  • Attend the Public Hearing and bring a friend
  • Stand Up for your Property Rights
  • Demand compensation for your property's loss of economic utility
  • Ask "Why is the City doing this during the worst economic crisis in 70 years?"
This will be the second vote to prohibit rentals of less than 6 months.  If this vote passes it will become law.  The previous vote was 7-0 in favor of prohibiting rentals of less than 6 months.

This would also prohibit landlords from having any kind of tenant agreement other than a written lease of six months or greater.  This will void tenancies-at-will and month-to-month leases.

Below is the proposed amendment to the Zoning Code.
Sec.142-905. Permitted Accessory Uses In Single-Family Districts.

(b) Permitted accessory uses. The following are permitted accessory uses in single-family districts:

            *              *                *
 (5) Leases of single family homes to a family (as defined in section 114-1) for not less than six months and one day, including extensions for lesser periods of leases permitted under this subsection to original leaseholders.

            *              *                *
