HR County Clarifies “Resident” Term For STR Apps

The Hood River County Commission approved a resolution to clarify the term “resident” as related to new short-term rental applications while County planning staff work on review of the current STR ordinance.  Under the resolution, the definition changes from “a person who occupies a dwelling for at least 30 days” to “a person who occupies a dwelling that is considered their primary legal residence or domicile.”          County Administrator Jeff Hecksel says that language will be used to evaluate any new short-term rental applications pending adoption of a revised ordinance, hopefully in November.  The Commission asked staff in August to review the STR ordinance, looking at eliminating STR’s in resource lands and grandfathering issues.
