Stand Against the Ban – Oct. 3rd
In an effort to limit AirBnBs, Councilman Andy Naquin has proposed an ordinance that would eliminate the right for most Lafayette residents to rent any portion of their property for less than 30 days.
There is NO grandfathering and NO exceptions for owner-occupied properties in the RS-1 ban.
The ordinance would create a permitting system and establish regulations for all short-term rentals in the City of Lafayette. CO-094-2023 would impose some of the strictest permit requirements and restrictions in the state of Louisiana. In addition, the ordinance would completely ban short-term rentals in RS-1 zones, which make up 75% of the city. An STR is defined as the rental of a home, dwelling unit or room for less than 30 days.
