VACATION RENTALS: A relatively new ordinance is sending a not-so-subtle reminder to Durango entrepreneurs who cash in on the city's lucrative vacation home rental market: Tourism may be Durango's lifeblood, but people live here too.
In April, city councilors passed a new law requiring a homeowner obtain a permit to rent out a private home for fewer than 28 days. The ordinance is a result of rising complaints by neighbors. One property in particular spurred the planning commission to propose the ordinance.
The ordinance require homeowners to post information inside the home about trash collection, the number of allowed guests, noise restrictions and parking regulations. Permits are based on neighborhood density zoning and can cost between $50 and $150 depending on the property location. The ordinance also requires permit holders to pay sales tax.
