What's CITY Talking About?

Should We Ban Airbnbs?

Gardner Policy Institute, short-term vacation rentals have contributed to Utah’s housing shortage in tourism-focused counties, but banning them won’t solve the housing crisis. Instead, they suggest focusing on workforce housing and zoning regulations for short-term rentals. [Salt Lake Tribune]
