How would the proposed legislative bills now before the County Council affect vacation rentals?
The legislative bills would streamline permitting by no longer requiring a public hearing for bed and breakfasts (B&Bs). The B&B could include the rental of the ohana unit with the owner of the B&B required to live on site. B&Bs would be allowed in the Residential District, Rural District and in the Agricultural District if standards are met. TVRs would only be allowed in resort areas and business districts.
