ADJOURN BRIGHTON TOWN COUNCIL MINUTES REPRESENTATION ▪ COMMUNITY ▪ LEGACY August 11, 2020 ▪ 6:30 pm ▪ Electronic Meeting ▪ Presiding: Mayor Dan Knopp ATTENDANCE Dan Knopp, Jeff Bossard, Carolyn Keigley, Jenna Malone, Keith Zuspan, Polly McLean, Barbara Cameron, Kara John, Nate Rockwood, Steve Pantuso, James Blanton, Dusty Dern, Kim Mayhew, Trent Sorensen, Kristin Cassell, Karl Bryner, Chelsie Bryner ANNOUNCEMENTS PUBLIC INPUT Steve Pantuso expressed concern about no public bathrooms at Brighton, specifically the Lake Mary trailhead. There is increased foot traffic due to COVID and so a need for porta-potties. He regularly sees people relieving themselves in the woods 150 yards from his cabin. MINUTES Minutes for July 14th, 2020 were approved with the adjustment to the public comment portion to include a statement the statement requesting that RMP consider burying power lines as a solution to reduce the threat from tree fall. UPD James Blanton reported on the extra traffic due to the fire evacuation in Parley’s Canyon because of the fire on Mt. Aire. There were more cars in the canyon then ever seen before causing issues with the left turn at Guardsmans Pass. Officers were placed at the turn going uphill toward Guardsman to help to direct traffic. Cars were sent around the Brighton Loop to avoid the left turn and more easily pass the cars coming down the mountain. Jeff was appreciative of the extra help. Park City helped to turn around larger vehicles to keep the road from getting too clogged. This recent evacuation begs the need for an evacuation plan for our canyon, either over Guardsman’s Pass or down the canyon. Residents should be thinking of a list of essential things that they could pack to prevent delays during an evacuation. Another thing they’d like to see is that cabins have clearly marked house address numbers. There were several cabins unmarked in Mt.Aire, making it challenging to keep track of which residents had been checked. They had to use other ways of identification to keep track that are less precise than house numbers. Vehicle break ins are still high, especially at Cardiff, Butler, the S turn and lower picnic areas. It points to the need for people to keep valuables in the trunk where they can’t be seen. They have posted reminders on roadside lighted message boards to help. There weren’t any domestic burglaries this month. There is more traffic in the canyon than previous years, including parking problems on Guardsman Pass. They’re still working on getting no parking signage and getting parking citations switched over to civil infraction which would also change the fee. Jenna asked if we could place No Parking signs with more frequency on the Big Cottonwood side in a similar way to how they did it on the Park City side. They’d like to increase signs to every 30 ft. even though it causes a challenge in the winter with removing them. Barricades have also been discussed as an option. Jeff explained that a sign at the top and bottom isn’t sufficient because people don’t recognize that it applies to the full stretch of road including the wider shoulders, such as the second switch back. UDOT still has changes for the Brighton loop. In terms of staffing, there is a new bid as of Aug. 2 nd for the canyon which put Sgt. Ed Twohill on day shifts and Sgt. James Blanton on in the afternoon for the next 6-8 months. There is one vacancy and one retirement expected soon so they’ll need to fill those. A written report was provided by Lee Arnold: As you all witnessed, Big Cottonwood seen a great influx of traffic going over the Guard Road last week. It was so bad UPD had to close the road. As you may or may not know it was due to the fire in Parleys. This is a chance to look at your evacuation plan and prepare for what could happen when people over use a road that was not intended for that amount of traffic. Also when we had to evacuate Mt Air there were many who were not prepared. This may also be a good time to have items in a pack ready to go at a moment’s notice. I had one older couple who somehow was missed and had no idea they were supposed to evacuate. When I informed them they needed to leave the fire was only ½ mile away they panicked. They had no preparation. I had to remind them to get the medication and the very essential items. I tell you this so we can be prepared for when a fire hits Brighton, when were are prepared it is a calming effect knowing we have what we need when we need it. Another problem was the cabins, houses were not numbered properly on the house or near where they could be easily read. If this is your home please have it properly marked so we can easily keep track of who has been contacted and evacuated. On another note vehicle burglary are still on the increase at the trail heads mostly at Cardiff, Butler Fork the S turn and the lower picnic areas. If you see something suspicious call dispatch and report it. There were no residential burglaries reported for the mouth of July and to date. Traffic remains a problem and UPD continues to deal with the problem. As you know there are changes to the Bright Loop Road I think will help with the ONE WAY traffic problem. I hope everyone is safe and well if you ever have any questions please feel free to contact me at [email protected] or 801 214 4544. If it is an immediate problem like traffic or other problems please call dispatch @801-743-7000. Thanks Lee UFA Dusty Dern reported that it’s been a busy fire season. He was the incident commander for the Mt Aire fire from the initial attack through yesterday evening. He’d had discussion with UDOT to influence the road closure. It was deemed necessary on the second day that Mt. Aire was threatened because it is a hazard to fly buckets over the roadways. Outside of that, fire Fuels Crews have been busy with mitigation projects. There have been an increase in medical calls for backcountry rescue by recreational users. BUSINESS Resolution for SLCo Municipal Service District Property Tax Rate and Brighton Property Tax Area Authority The council unanimously voted to pass the resolution with a roll call vote. Nate Rockwood presented additional research on the property tax options. His initial understanding was that this tax was from the Greater Salt Lake Municipal Service District, but in fact it is Salt Lake County Municipal Service District’s special fund for unincorporated areas, the Legal Defense Fund. Legal defense fund. Now that we are incorporated, state code requires the tax automatically transferred to the town. Setting the rate at .00006 does not increase the property tax from where it’s been. There is no requirement to pay this amount to the county if we forgo implementation of the tax. There is no impact to the town budget if we don’t collect this tax. Ten years ago there was a collective property value of 10 Billion dollars but it is much lower now, reducing the need for the fund. Rather than remove the tax, they transferred it. It makes up such a small percentage of the town budget and it isn’t currently allocated toward anything. His professional opinion is that since the budget is balanced it isn’t necessary. Given all of this, Dan prefers to change it to .000000 to keep his promise to not raise taxes. Although the tax was already imposed and wouldn’t actually be an increase, the title on the notice would be perceived as a new tax coming from the Town of Brighton.

  • Short-Term Rentals and Los Angeles' Lost Housing
    Short-Term Rentals and L.A.’s Lost Housing Roy Samaan | 24 August 2015 In March 2015, the Los Angeles Alliance for a New Economy (LAANE) released Airbnb, Rising Rent, and the Housing Crisis in Los Angeles. That report, based on data gathered in October 2014, found that Airbnb listings were dominated by commercial operations and were exacerbating the lack of affordable rental units in L.A.’s already tight housing market.1 The goal of this reassessment is to determine how the size and scope of the short-term rental (STR) industry has changed over the last nine months. This policy brief examines listing information from a broad range of STR operators alongside new Airbnb data. Combining these data sources allows for an examination of how Airbnb’s internal composition has changed over the last nine months and allows for the creation of a more refined snapshot of the Los Angeles STR industry.2 Estimated scope of short-term rental industry has more than doubled The short-term rental industry is more than twice Table 1: Total Unique Listings and Market Share for Los Angeles STR Operators as big as previously estimated, with a combined Share of L.A.’s STR Company Unique Listings 23,268 units spread across 19 different platforms. STR Market Airbnb remains the largest player, with 65 percent of all short-term rental units in Los Angeles Airbnb 15,031 64.6% County.

  • STR Compliance Software Memo
    DATE: November 18, 2020 TO: W. John Moore, Mayor Yachats City Council FROM: Shannon Beaucaire, City Manager SUBJECT: Vacation Rental Monitoring Software At the November 5, 2020 meeting, the Council requested further discussion on vacation rental monitoring software at its November 18, 2020 meeting. This has been a continuing conversation over the last few years. Attached is the PowerPoint that the Mayor received from Granicus, that was shared with Council. Granicus purchased Host Compliance, the company that I brought to the Council during our continuing conversations. Notes from the Granicus meeting: In looking at the 5 cost options, Granicus stated that we probably don't need the Mobile-enabled registration/tax collection model, and did not include that $5,000 cost in what the Mayor reported at the council meeting. This module would primarily be used to move non-licensed VR owners to apply for a vacation rental license and pay their taxes through the module. Since we have a cap and would not be moving them towards obtaining a license, there doesn't seem to be a current need for that module. Granicus costs are based on the number of active (licensed and unlicensed) vacation rentals and are reset annually. Therefore, 2nd year costs may be lower than the first-year costs. Following are websites of short-term rental compliance software: Granicus https://granicus.com/solution/govservice/host-compliance/ Selected cities served, including Oregon cities, are in the Power Point. 1 Lodging Revs https://lodgingrevs.com/ Utilized by the City of Newport, OR https://www.newportoregon.gov/dept/adm/agreements/2693/agreement_2693.pd f Accela https://www.accela.com/solutions/short-term-rental/ Property Guard https://propertyguard.io/solutions/ Harmari https://www.harmari.com/harmaristr/ Articles regarding short-term rental compliance software (note: some of the products noted in the article have been merged into single companies.

This is an open access article licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 4.0 License The Sharing Economy at Tourist Tours and Its Impact on the Tourist Business (Travel Agencies) in Bulgaria Mariana Ianeva Assoc. Prof. Dr., Ph. D. Student Ralitsa Georgieva, University of World and National Economy, Department “Economics of tourism”, Sofia, Bulgaria Abstract This paper examines the sharing economy and the application of its manifestations in the field of business as a whole and in particular- at the tourism sector in Bulgaria. Identified are theories, regarding the technology of the sharing economy, that are also being studied by foreign researchers in order to differentiate its specificity and to illustrate its impact on diverse aspects of business. The development of the collaborative consumption also determines a restructuring of the tourist market and imposes changes in the demand for tourist product. A result of the opportunities it offers is the emergence of unpredictability at the consumer’s behavior- tourists are looking for a new type of product to be created for their individual needs. Improving the link between the client and the others, involved at the creation of a tourist package, as well as offering new and diverse tourist products are presented as a way to respond to the current demand changes. Outlined are trends in the formation of a new tourist product, adapted to the contemporary consumer’s needs.
