Last night, Denver’s City Council passed the short-term rental regulations recommended by the Planning Commission to the second reading, despite opposition from short-term rental platforms, such as HomeAway, and industry leaders regarding the “primary dwelling unit” requirement. City Council also voted down amendments to the proposed regulations submitted by two City Councilmembers. The second reading and public hearing is scheduled for June 13.

Update: City Council passed the proposed regulations at the June 13 hearing. Our recent client alert provides more information on the approved short-term rental regulations and other factors to consider prior to renting your home.
