Review current version of Homestay ordinance.  1    Town Manager Spuck presented the Commission members with the most recent version of Section 38-77.- Special exceptions. He stated the Town needs to define who we are and write an ordinance that fits that definition. Discussion followed. Mr. Spuck was asked how many special use permits for Homestays the Town currently has on record. He stated eleven; two are used often, two are idle, most of the others are infrequently used and three applications have been submitted: since the moratorium. Commission member Bagwell was concerned about keeping the character of our neighborhoods, he wants to know his neighbors. Commission member Brockmeier said the residential areas are not for business, Airbnb'sare businesses. Also discussed was requiringa a minimum of two hundred linear feet between water meters plus one tax parcel between properties ino order to prevent clusters of Homestays in any one area, a three year expiration for the special use permit, the submission of Transient Occupancy Taxes (TOT), who can apply, proof of insurance, limits on the number of days (90) homes can be rentedi in a calendar year which Mr. Spuck estimated would keep the property from being an overly profitable business, limits on the number of people that could stayi in the house at one time (four for each full bath), the availability ofc off street parking for all types of vehicles and local contact information for the responsible party given to police and adjoining property owners. There was some discussion of Airbnb's in the downtown Business zone (B1) but it was decided by the Commissioners to defer that discussion for al later  time. Public Comment:  Chairman Grier opened the discussion to the public.  Residents had concerns about, keeping the residential areas residential and considered Airbnb's businesses', keeping home ownership and rentals affordable to locals, the 90 dayl limit andi its effect on property rights, the minimum two hundred linear foot requirement being a goodi idea but homeowners should also have a say about Homestays near them and finally not allowing anymore Homestays than we have right now: and making no changes to the ordinance, and concerns about inspections, oversite and enforcement and the costs to the Town. A resident from Onancock: shared information collected about other localities on the Chesapeake Bay that had Homestays and a resident of Cape Charles,  Virginia shared information about that Town's experiences with Homestays.  Adjourn:  Chairman Grier asked for a motion to adjourn.  Commission member Frey made a motion to adjourn. Commission member Brockmeier seconded the  motion.
