WENATCHEE â It was a full house on Zoom Tuesday night for Chelan Countyâs public hearing on its draft short-term rental regulations.
More than 400 people attended the public hearing and 47 people gave testimony over a two-hour period, but the county got through less than half the people who wanted to speak.
The three-person Chelan County Commission is set to vote Dec. 29 on the draft regulations. Commissioners Bob Bugert and Kevin Overbay said they have not decided whether they would vote for the regulations as they stand.
âThis has not been a rushed process, it has gone on for quite a while,â Chelan County Commissioner Doug England said. âAnd the only thing I can guarantee from this process is that no one will be entirely happy.â

WENATCHEE â The Chelan County Commission used about $1.7 million of its ârainy dayâ funding to help close a $2.2 million budget hole in 2021.
The 2021 general fund expense budget is over $47.3 million, up from $45.3 million in 2020, according to Chelan County documents. The budget in 2020 was $660,000 over and this year the county had to tack on an additional $1 million, said Cathy Mulhall, Chelan County administrator.
âSo really weâre adding a million dollars to the shortfall, which is not a good ongoing trend,â Mulhall said. âBut itâs not unexpected either, I would say.â
The deficit will give the county two options in the future, it can either cut services or find new revenue sources, she said. The county has $13 million in its rainy day fund, so it will avoid making that decision for awhile, but not forever.
