COEUR D'ALENE, Idaho — The Coeur d’Alene City Council on Tuesday delayed several decisions on proposals for tougher regulations on short-term rentals.
The council declined to pass a one-year moratorium, starting March 1, on issuing new permits for STRs.
It took no action on repealing a municipal code that provides a permit exemption for STRs rented fewer than 14 days in a year.
It also declined to act on an amendment to impose stiffer penalties — $1,000 for the first offense, $2,000 for the second, and $5,000 for the third — for operating an STR without a permit.
It did approve a fee increase to the annual STR renewal permit of $84 for a total of $180.
A line of STR owners filled the Library Community Room and for nearly two hours objected to the changes.
