Senate committee seeks amendments to short-term rental bill
- A Senate committee in Idaho is working on a bill to allow local governments to regulate short-term rentals like Airbnb the same as regular homes.
- Bill sponsor Jordan Redman emphasized the need to protect personal property rights and stated, 'This legislation protects personal property rights, which is fundamental.'
- Opponents, including Sandpoint Mayor Jeremy Grimm, argue that the bill limits local communities' ability to regulate short-term rentals according to their needs.
- The committee believes the bill needs amendments before further consideration, with time running short in the legislative session.
