A broad compromise that has the potential to end San Diego’s years-long stalemate over how to regulate short-term rentals will go before the city’s elected leaders on Tuesday.
The proposal, which has won the support of Airbnb and other large home-sharing platforms, as well as organized labor, calls for an overall cap on the number of whole-home rentals that could be listed for more than 20 days in a year.
The net effect would be to slash the volume of such rentals by as much as 30 percent citywide, based on city officials’ best guess of how many vacation rental listings there are in San Diego that fit that category.
