Mayor Aymon let him know that she understood his concerns about short term rentals. When he asked if he could share with his neighbors that the Mayor was in support of the opposition,she corrected him stating he could only say she understands the issues around large short term rentals.She did not give him permission to say she was supportive of the opposition. City Planner Delta James presented the request forCUP-17-03 Conditional Use Permit to entitle the continued use of the Conifer Lodge at 925 Conifer Lane as a short term rental with occupancy of 20 or more persons.The Tuft Family Revocable Trust has submitted theapplication for the continued short term rental use of a residential property with an advertised maximum occupancy of thirty-five (35) individuals. The use of the property as a large short-term rental pre-dates the City’s ordinance requiring a Conditional Use Permit for such use. Therefore, it is a pre-existing use that cannot be denied, but that upon which conditions may be placed to mitigate issues such as traffic, noise, etc. No changes wereproposed to the existing building, which was constructed in 2004 and includes 10 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms. The site plan illustrates that onsite parking is provided for up to 9 vehicles (2 in the garage and 7 outside) with controlled access off of Strawberry Lane, a paved road. No parking area was proposed off of Conifer Lane.Operation of the property included prohibition of the use of outdoor audio/video equipment andquiet times from 10 p.m. to 8a.m. which are posted on the property and included in the rental agreement. At a special meeting held July 18, 2017the McCall Area Planning and Zoning Commission(P&Z) held a properly noticed public hearing and recommended approval of the Conditional Use Permit to City Council with conditions as described in the attached staff report. The applicant objectedto several of these conditions. City Planner James went over therecommendedconditionswhich include quiet hours requirements,video surveillanceand interior/exterior audio meters, property manager requirements, maximum overnight occupancy, yearly occupancy restrictions,rental datato be provided with the tax payments, parkingrestrictions, drivewayaccess, trash location, landscaping plan to discourage parking in a certain location, business license and local option tax remittance. Steve Millemann, attorney for the applicant, briefly covered the State statues governing short term rentals. He covered the home’s history, discussingwhat the applicant has done toaddress the noise issues, visual impact such as fencing, trash receptacle location, management plan accountability, parking, and video surveillance. Mr. Millemann addressed the conditions that the applicant does not agree to specifically the number of occupancy,audio meters, and snowmobile trailers and RVs. Kitty Tuft, co-owner of 925 Conifer Lane, spoke on their efforts to address the noise issues, video, they meet personally with each guest, signs are posted, ban on outside music or amplification, fencing and garbage, landscaping plans, game room issuesuch as adding A/C unitso window will McCall City Council Regular MeetingPage 6of 13 August 24, 2017 remain closed. Frank Tuft, co-owner of the home,gave a background on him and his family history, his desire to be able to have the same amenities as his neighbors to have a trailer on his property, and expressed how he would like to get along and work with his neighbors. City Attorney Bill Nichols went through a slide show summary of the new House Bill 216 statue which legislates short term rentals, and explained how it affects cities and communities. Public Comments in Favorof the Applicant RandyHulbert, 1670 Warren Wagon, spoke thatin the beginning he was not happy about the Conifer Lodge and had to threaten legal action before the owner met with him to draw up some rules. The conditions put in place with this conditional use permit are far better than what was originally drafted and he is content with them. Neil Smith, 1081 W.Rivercrest CircleSouth in Jordan, Utah has known the Tufts for many years spoke on the character, their needs for this income for retirement. He stated that thisshort term rentalis their life and future. Claudia Smith, 1081 W. Rivercrest Circle South in Jordan, Utahspoke on the need for rentals for large families, and how the Tufts put their heart in to the building of their home. She spoke on the size of their family gatherings which are over 30 people and the difficulty in finding places big enough to accommodate them when they come here to visit. Mark Mathews,909 Ann Street,plows thesnowat Conifer Lodge andhas only witnessed parking on Coniferon a couple of times and never seen anyone on the area that is blocked off. Council MemberGiles asked for clarification on how many and how difficult it is to fit a snowmobile truck and trailer into the parking space. Mr. Matthews answered thattwo trucks and trailerscould park on the west side leaving room for 5 cars in the drive plus the 2 in the garage. Debra Walgren, 1912 Nordic Circle who owns a large short term rental in Island Park. She manages three large cabins over 27 plus people. She spoke about how her town and Freemont County dealt with large short term rentals by researching successful ordinances in other areas and drafted what is called the Freemont County Home Occupation Transient Rental Permit which is required of all vacation rentals regardless of size or occupancy. Safety was important but a big focus on neighborhood enjoyment addressing response time, and theeffort has been very successful. Occupancy is based on square footage which is 150 sq. ft. per person. She felt the 75% annual restriction was wrong. Council Member Giles asked questions about snowmobile trailers and parking. Ms. Walgren stated that if there is not enough parking, it is the renter’s responsibility to find additional parking somewhere else. John Farmer, 630Ruby Street, talked about his youth and relation to the Tufts, their love for McCall, and felt they were trying to be good neighbors. Jens Jensen, 223 Ernesto, spoke about the investment put in by an owner/business ownerand expressed concerned that regulation could be put forth in the future that could hurt his business. Personally, he cannottell the difference from one large of 19 over a group of 35. He thought that if the City is going to regulate noise, it should be through a noise ordinance. McCall City Council Regular MeetingPage 7of 13 August 24, 2017 Dick Stones, 3609Fox Run of New Meadows, spoke of the good nature of the Tufts and the difficulty of screening of renters. He was in favor of renting to a group of 35. Paul Ryan, 342 Whitetail Drive, has been in the home and itcan easily accommodate 35 people. The rules are clearly posted and behavior and conduct rules are everywhere, and itis a large lot back off the roadand not that noticeable from the road. It is not the nicest home in the neighborhood yet not the worsteither. It could use some landscaping upgrades. Mr. Ryan also pointed out there are trailers and boats all up and down the neighborhood and some people living in trailerson empty lots. Hefeels the Tufts should be allowed to continue to do what they have been doing over the last seven years. Mark Saben,1415Jefferson Road, shared that snowmobilers brought $33.8 million into Valley County in 2015-2016. He is not against control measuresbut feelsit is good business to embrace these type of facilities to support the snowmobile industry. Public Comments in Opposition of the Applicant Pam Fitzsimmons, 934Flynn Lane, observed that ittook the Tufts 6 years to buildthe homeso it appears they are not good planners. In addition,they had told everyone in the neighborhood that the home was for theirfamily but failed to mention it was going to beabusiness. Shefeels disrespected, and correspondence has been condescending. Shedoes not feel the CUP is a comprehensiveenoughplan. Peter Fitzsimmons, 943Flynn Lane, feels the Tufts are not honestdue to what the neighborhood was told when they were building and in the information presented to P&Z. Mr. Fitzsimmons knew someone who attended a partyat Conifer Lodgewherethere was at least 100 people and he finds this upsetting. He spoke on the size of the home and thinks the information presented in the CUP is deceptive. Ken Krahn, 907 Strawberry Lane,talked aboutthe amount oftraffic, bothcar and pedestrian, in what is zoned a low density area. He is concerned about property values going down due to the problems caused by the Lodge,and aboutthesafety issues created by the amount of traffic going through the neighborhood. Julia Thrower, 917 Conifer Lane, representing attorneyof 21 people in the neighborhood,spoke to the safety issues on Strawberry Lane as it is a bike path and the quietness of theneighborhood. Sheshared a recording of loud music at 10:35 p.m. that went on until 2:15 a.m. where the police were called out twicewhich had little effect, and shared another clip of noisy kids in the game room at around 8 p.m.She wants to make sure that the CUP is enforceable and asked to require padding for the game room. Other property managers, such as Vacasa LLC, uses noise monitoring. She shared information how this problem is being addressed in other parts of the country. She also shared information on noise monitoring productsand explainedhow the monitor can be set by the owner and if it goes over the level it will text the manager.This puts the responsibility on the property manager rather than the neighbors. The response timeis too slow and neighbors are frustrated by the lack of management.Ms. Thrower also spoke about theneedofaproperty managementcompany who can actually take care of the issues, having the occupancy based on legal bedrooms, and would like to see stronger language regarding parties, and pet violators. McCall City Council Regular MeetingPage 8of 13 August 24, 2017 Mark Russell, 936 Conifer Lane,compared Conifer Lodge to North Beach and stated the Tufts have not reached out and no one has the Tufts phone numbers. Hefeels the house should be shut down until everything is in placementioning the fence as an example. Hebrought up issues with Planning and Zoning,traffic issues, andsnow storage. Mark Tapscott, 928 Strawberry Lane,stated people do notadhere to the quiet hours,and do not pay attention to the police citations. He doesnot feel the Tufts are good property managersand would like to see it professionally managed. Christopher Justice, 932 Strawberry Lane,stated the neighborhood was great until the Lodge was put in. He does notfeel it is fair for the neighbors to bear the burden of policing the home. He wants to see things made right. Bill Yensen934ConiferLane, has lived on ConiferLanefor many years,andfeels that the zoning laws should be enforced as they are written. GailBray, representing 932 Strawberry Lane,stated that though this home was built under the guise of a family home, the Tufts do not live there and it has been a business from the beginning. She cannot imagineMr. Tuft would be showing up in the early morning hours to deal with issues andthinks itshould be managed by a professional. She also wanted to know why language Mr. th Millemann put in his July 13letter restricting the non-renterswas omitted. She feels the 75% restriction would be a nightmare to enforce and feels many of theproblems would be mitigated by just reducing the number of occupants to 20 and get rid of the 75% restriction. Eric Wakild, 924 StrawberryLane, echoes the issues of safety due to the traffic, and has never met the Tufts nor does he havetheir phone numbers. He uses his home as a short term rental but he is appalled by the impact the Conifer Lodge has on the neighborhood. There is a charm about the neighborhood being ruined. He made the plea to regulate short term rentals,especially the larger homes. Art Troutner lives on 193 W. Lake Fork Road and owns 943Strawberry Lane,statedConifer Lodgeis intrusive to a quiet neighborhood. This is a place where people live and feels it is unfair to those who live there to operate a business the way it has been operated. Larry Hettinger, 925 Strawberry Lane,wanted to point out that his neighbor,Mark Tapscott,is a fireman including ambulancecalls, and he needs his rest which is difficult to do with what currently goes on at that property. The people who live in the neighborhood have lives and Conifer Lodge is disruptive. Rebuttal Steve Millemann feels that the CUP addresses all the issues, and that they can be enforced. He went over the police calls, addressed the conditions presented by opposite council which hadnot been presented to P&Z or his office, and confirmed the number beds. He spoke on the Aug 10-11 incident and how the new conditions would have made a difference. Eviction is included in the management plan. Heclarified what is an event, and pointed out the website has been modified recently to removeverbiageregarding events. Heexplained why keepinga35 limit is important as historically 30-75% of the Tufts rentals are over 30 people and reducingthe numberwould restrict theTufts income.City Planner James verified that the topic of events was hashed out, and McCall City Council Regular MeetingPage 9of 13 August 24, 2017 pointed out traffic requirements in the CUP. Mr. Tuft explained what has been done to make the home safer, and Mrs. Tuft explained how lowering the max occupancy would affect their ability to rent, the rental price, etc. Council Member Witte asked for elaborationon pre-existing use and pre-existing occupancy and how that might affect the Council’s decision. Attorney Nichols explained that the courts have characterized a non-conforming use which is someonewhohad a piece of property used in a particular manner, possibly pre-zoning.Then a newzoning code is implemented or a change in zoning code,turning what was previously lawful into unlawful. Typically the property is “grandfathered” in and so as long as there are no expansions or changes, enforcement of the code is not applicable. He explained how the City’s zoning laws are applicable to the Conifer Lodge. The Tufts do have an argument that their property use was in place before the change in zoning. Limiting the occupants is an option but a certain amount of respect needs to be given to the Tuft’s argument. Mr. Millemann explained that he came up with the percentages in his letter,for groups of30 and above came from the rental records,and interjected that this is not a non-conforming use. There was a brief question and answer between the Council and the applicants. Gail Bray provided the Council with the number of days with occupancy for last two years. Attorney Nichols also explained that the CUP doesnot have an expiration date but State statue can have a duration note but specific finding needsto be listedand what those are. Violations are a complaint driven process, if there is a consistent pattern of violations, there are processes to revoke a CUP. Due processneeds to be followed. If the property is sold,the CUP is required to review. There is no best practice in place. McCall is one of the first places to address regulating short term rentals, it has expanded greatly to all communities other than resort towns due to the internet rental agencies. Receiving no more written correspondence and hearing no more comments, Mayor Aymon closed the public hearing at 9:10p.m. Mayor Aymon expressed thatharmonyis important in a neighborhood. She spoke about the rights of all property owners, and to think broadly in how to help the neighborhood to negate the negative impacts. Council Member Witte was not ready to make a decision,and stated shewould like to look over all of the information presented and digest all the comments.Council Member Giles stated he was also not ready. He suggested a work session to look at the CUP more thoroughly, and suggested a meeting of all of the attorneys. Council Member Nielsen was concerned about enforcement,andinterested in exploring solutions. Attorney Nichols statedthatthe submitted materials tonight have not been seen by the applicant and since the Council would like to postpone the decision,toprovide copies allowing the applicant to address the new information. Thepublic hearingis closed to public testimony but is still open to allow comment from the applicant on the new information presented. He gave the Council instruction to not discuss the subject with anyone and if approached by the public to directedthem to come to the next Council meetingon the subject. There is no prohibition for the legal counsels to come togetherfor further discussion. MayorAymoninstructed staff to look at what is being done about the game room, and expressed concernabout trafficand asked if the Citycan control the flow. She was also concerned about the McCall City Council Regular MeetingPage 10of 13 August 24, 2017 management’sresponse time and suggested they look at hiring a professional.She also asked that the applicant define eventsmore clearly. Council Member Witte directed staffto pull the CUP for the other large short term so theCouncil can make a consistent decision on events, and provide a breakdown on the number of occupants.
