Short Term Rental Accommodations - Electoral Area "D", "F" & "I"
Background
In 2024, the Regional District initiated a review of its regulatory approach to short-term rental accommodations (currently referred to as "vacation rentals" in the Regional District's land use bylaws) in response to recent provincial legislative changes (i.e. Short Term Rental Accommodations Act).
As a result of this review, it was identified that a preferred approach to regulating short-term rental accommodations in Areas "D", "F" and "I" was through zoning restrictions limiting short-term rental accommodations to an operator's principal residence. In the case of Areas "D" and "I", this approach shall also be augmented by the issuance of business licenses.
In support of this approach, the following bylaws have been identified as requiring amendment:
- Electoral Area “D", "F" & “I” OCP Bylaws
- Okanagan Valley Zoning Bylaw
