Pe cZuot MEM <br /> q O <br /> Lakes— <br /> TO: Cullen Lakes Association <br /> East Twin Lake Association <br /> Mayo Lake Association <br /> Sibley Lake Association <br /> West Twin La.ke Association <br /> FROM: Dawn Bittner, Zoning Specialist <br /> DATE: November 14, 2017 <br /> RE: Short-term Property Rental <br /> This past sumrner, it was brought to our attention that numerous properties ha.ve rented <br /> their homes on VRBO,Airbnb, etc. The property owners were not aware that Pequot <br /> Lakes has an Ordinance prohibiting more tha.n four leases per dwelling,per year as noted <br /> on the following excerpt of Chapter 17, Section 5-1, 6 D: <br /> Section 17-5.1 GENERAL <br /> 6. The following provisions apply to all zoning districts: <br /> D. Unless specifically allowed,no more than four leases per year,per <br /> dwelling are allowed. <br /> In 2018,the City will remain diligent in enforcing the Land Use Ordinance regarding <br /> these type of violations that are brought to our attention. The Enforcement Section is <br /> available for review on the City's website at www.pe�c,uotlakes-mn.gov on the City Code <br /> &Policies sidebar under Cha.pter 17, Section 12. <br /> We are asking each of our Lake Associations to include this information in their <br /> upcoming newsletters and meetings so property owners are aware of this prior to <br /> accepting deposits for future rentals. These short-term rentals did become an issue in <br /> 2017 due to noise, increased boat tr�c, etc. The City wants everyone to enjoy our <br /> beautiful lakes,but not at another's expense. <br /> Please feel free to conta.ct me with any questions. Thank you for your assistance. <br /> 463 8 Main Street <br /> Pequot Lakes, MN 56472 <br /> dbittner(rr�,pequotlakes-mn.gov <br /> 218-568-6699 <br />
