LIDO KEY, FLA.- â The Sarasota City Commission will discuss a proposed ordinance next month that would limit occupancy for vacation rentals on Lido Key and St. Armands.
The proposed ordinance would cap guest occupancy at 10 people.
The St. Armands Residents Association would like the city to regulate hotel houses also known as rental properties.
The association suggested the establishment of a registration program, a cap or a limit on the maximum number of people allowed to rent or stay overnight and a way to limit or control the number of bedrooms in new homes being constructed.
About a year and a half ago, residents said a developer bought homes, tore them down, and replaced them with weekly vacation rental properties, which sleep up to 25 guests each. Residents say the rentals bring trash, too many cars, and loud parties.
