Scottsdale City Council voted unanimously in favor of two proposed updates to the city’s vacation rental ordinance as well as its nuisance parties and unlawful gatherings ordinance at the Dec. 8 meeting.
The updates to both ordinances, which take effect Jan. 7, 2022, will remove loopholes, increase fines and improve the city’s enforcement abilities when handling short-term vacation rental complaints, according to a press release from the city.
A 2016 state law restricting cities and towns from regulating vacation and short-term rental properties removed a Scottsdale law that prohibited rentals of 30 days or fewer.
