The City of Guelph is asking for community feedback on adding regulations for short-term rentals to its existing business licence bylaw.
The city launched a survey asking businesses, landlords, residents and visitors to share their opinion on licensing short-term rentals in Guelph.
Short-term licensing would apply to properties providing accommodations for rent for less than 30 consecutive days and would mean operators need to acquire a licence that would standardize and regulate how these rentals operate and may include required fire inspections, public health inspections and mandated insurance limits.
Those looking to share their thoughts and opinions can attend a virtual open house on Nov. 30 at 6:30 p.m. or on Dec. 8 at 10 a.m.
An in-person meeting will be held at Guelph City Hall on Dec. 8 at 6:30 p.m. in meeting room C.
