Many towns and cities in Arizona have been talking about the impact of short-term rentals since the 2016 passage of Senate Bill 1350 that prohibits local control over short-term rentals, specifically about how they limit housing availability for residents.
And with city reports estimating more than 1,110 short-term rentals in the Sedona, Village of Oak Creek and Oak Creek Canyon areas combined, the effects on the city of Sedona have been a hot topic in the overall STR regulation discussion.
Some council members have even gone as far as to say that STRs are the biggest immediate threat to the community.
