SUMMARY:MNSTRA Town Hall Session 2: Minnetonka
DESCRIPTION:The Minnetonka City Council is moving forward with a restrictive new ordinance that could fundamentally change your ability to host. On April 27\, the Council requested a pivotal change to the draft: all short-term rentals must be homesteaded. \nWhat this means: Under the current proposal\, only property owners who occupy their home as their primary residence would be allowed to operate an STR. If passed\, this would effectively ban non-owner-occupied short-term rentals in Minnetonka. \nJoin the MNSTRA Virtual Town Halls\nMNSTRA is hosting two virtual meetings to brief hosts on the ordinance\, discuss the impact of the homestead requirement\, and coordinate our response ahead of the official Public Hearing. \n\nTown Hall Session 1 (Pre-hearing): Wednesday\, May 27 | Noon CT\n\nTopic: Strategy and talking points for the May 28 Planning Commission hearing. \n\n\nTown Hall Session 2 (Post hearing): Wednesday\, June 10 | Noon CT\n\nTopic: Recap of the council vote and discussing the path forward for hosts.\n\n\n\nRegister to join session 2
