Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh is the next community looking at drafting a short term rental by-law.
Council was given the choice of keeping the status quo, or moving ahead with forming a bylaw on Tuesday, and members were in agreement that some regulations needed to be in place.
Councillor Anita Snobelen said they needed to make a change, due to the increased calls to bylaw officers stemming from these rentals.
Council directed staff to prepare a terms of reference for a committee, whose mandate would be to make a recommendation on a draft licencing by-law to regulate Short-Term Rentals.
Once staff return with the terms of reference, council will determine the committees makeup. However, council members around the table seemed in agreement that both short-term rental owners and their neighbours should be on the committee.
