Title
Use Permit Application by Antionique & Twaitney Addison to Permit a Short-Term Rental (STR) at 404 N Second St [LRSN: 12007147]
Purpose
UPDATED BACKGROUND STATEMENT FOR JUNE 12, 2024:
This item was deferred at the August 9, 2023, the November 8, 2023, and the February 28, 2024 City Council meetings.
Based on the set of proposed amendments, the proposed short-term rental is located in the Buckroe 1 STR Zone.

Additionally, the subject application is not eligible to convert to a Zoning Administrator Permit (ZAP) application when the proposed ordinance amendments go into effect as there is insufficient on-site parking; therefore, the item will remain a Use Permit and will require Council action.
