A new bill addressing short-term rental properties has garnered support from the two dominant rental platforms — but not the full support of Paradise Valley’s mayor — as it takes initial steps through the Arizona Legislature.
“We and other municipalities registered in opposition to this bill primarily because there are other bills currently advancing in the state Legislature that would go further towards our goal of restoring effective local oversight on short-term rental activities in our town,” said Paradise Valley Mayor Jerry Bien-Willner of Senate Bill 1379.
SB 1379 was introduced by Sen. J.D. Mesnard, R-Chandler, and received unanimous approval from a nine-member Senate Commerce Committee on Feb. 3.
