White Salmon Council Discussing STR Permitting

The White Salmon City Council will discuss a proposed ordinance for short-term rental permitting at its Wednesday meeting.  The City’s Community Development Committee is proposing $300 application and renewal fee in an effort to determine where STR’s are located and how many there are, to ensure they meet minimum qualifications, and to inform owners they need to collect and remit state taxes to the Washington State Department of Revenue.  It does not address zoning questions and other issue, but Mayor David Poucher says this is a first step to gauge how many STR’s are actually operating in the community.  City staff is proposing a public hearing on the ordinance be scheduled for August 7.  Wednesday’s meeting begins at 6 p.m. in the Council Chambers.
