While it’s highly unlikely Senate Bill 1350 will ever be reversed, some county-level elected officials are hoping to give a few rights back to the cities they represent.
Each year the state’s 64 county supervisors meet to address and vote upon issues they’d like to see presented to the state legislature. One of the eight that were recently decided upon deals with short-term vacation rentals.
