COMMISSION MEMORANDUM

TO:Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission 
FROM:Vice-Mayor Ricky Arriola 
DATE:October  30, 2019
 



SUBJECT:DISCUSS HOMELESS TRUST FUNDING IMPACTED BY SHORT-TERM RENTAL LITIGATION.

BACKGROUND/HISTORY

On October 19, 2019 the City Manager sent an email to the Mayor and Commission stating that in light of the Short-Term Rental (STR) ordinance litigation, he plans to put a hold on the disbursement of the collected STR fines that were to be remitted to the Homeless Trust. The Trust was depending on this money entering their coffers shortly after the start of our new fiscal year, so I am asking that we find another funding source to make good on our monetary commitment as soon as possible.
