Mission Beach Town Council to Vote on STR sub-committee proposal.
Please attend Wednesday, June 12 (That's Tomorrow) at 6pm to vote YES!
Meeting is held at the Belmont Park Community Room, above the arcade.
We need eligible MBTC members (Member for more than 30 days) to show up and vote YES for the reasonable compromise drafted by reasonable community member's on both sides of this issue and approved unanimously by the Executive Board. This proposal will be sent to City officials for them to consider when drafting their new proposal, which we expect to happen later this year.
Though the feedback we received has been mostly positive (with a compromise it's impossible to please everyone) it was concerning to hear from some community stakeholders that said they were part of the "silent majority" that supports STRs. Being silent on this issue is what lead to last July's ban of Mission Beach vacation rentals. Supporters remained quiet while our Town Council leaders at the time misrepresented our community and supported the primary only ban approved by City Council. We will find ourselves in a similar situation if we do not continue to be active on this issue.
Please click here to let us know if you will be there to vote YES to protect your right to vacation rent your home.
Below is the recent MBTC email with more details on the meeting. We also encourage members to vote Yes for the ratification of board members Dane and Rob.
Isn't there something important coming up? Oh yeah, it's the

MB Short Term Rental Resolution
This month's big big news is our committee's short term rental proposal. The STR committee has worked very hard on it and it has been approved by the MBTC Board. Now it's up to the general membership to vote for it's approval.
This proposal truly embraces the heart of compromise. The committee was formed from members on both sides of the STR debate, both pro and con. They came together and hashed out all of the limits, attributes and details. This doesn't give favor to one side or the other but instead looks at the best solutions for all involved. We respectfully urge your "Yes" vote this Wednesday as this is a big win for our community.
This is proposed for a vote as a yes or no vote only. The full text of the proposed STR ordinance recommendation for Mission Beach can be found by clicking the button below.
