Sevastopol residents will have a chance to weigh in Tuesday on a proposed “Short-Term Rental of Residential Dwellings” ordinance. The Town of Sevastopol, which has been looking at the issue for over a year, is hosting a public hearing inside the Town Hall starting at 5:30 pm. A notice by the town states that the intent of the ordinance is to ensure the operation of STRs is adequate for protecting public health, safety, and the general welfare of the community. One key element of the ordinance is the minimum six-night stay requirement for STRs. An alternate site for watching the proceedings will be at the Institute Saloon. Anyone interested in speaking should sign up in advance by calling the city clerk at 920-746-1230. No formal action will be taken on Tuesday and the public hearing will be for comments only and no discussion. You can find the draft of the Short-Term Rental Ordinance here.
