Memorandum
Manager's Office

TO: The Honorable Mayor and
 Board of Trustees
 Village Clerk
 Corporation Counsel

FROM: ,L t
 J^j-in T. Lockerby, Village Manager

DATE: February 29, 2024

SUBJECT: MANAGER'S REPORT
 BOARD MEETING OF MONDAY, MARCH 4,2024

 A. Proposed Regulations of Shprt-Term/Vacation Rentals.
 Short-term rentals (STR) are dwelling units or portions thereof offered for rent for
 a period of time of 30 days or iess. There are currently 45 STR units listed in
 Skokie on various platforms such as vacation rental by owner (VRBO). Given the
 popularity of STR units, communities are working to manage and regulate these
 uses.


 After reviewing Skokie's experience, best practices, and the regulations of several
 area communities, it is staff's recommendation for the Village to pursue the
 regulation of STRs with a three-fold purpose: 1) to regulate these uses in
 residential neighborhoods in order to mitigate a potential negative cumulative
 effect, 2) to enforce life safety code compliance at these properties, and 3)
 maintain the residential nature of neighborhoods. Staff recommends code updates
 as presented in the attached memorandum.

 concur with staff's recommendations and respectfully request Mayor and Board
 authorize the Corporation Counsel to draft the necessary ordinance.

Memorandum
Community Development Department



TO: John T. Lockerby, Village Manager


FROM: t^^t^^t/^^ /6/^<_

 _A^1^-^V -.-^-_\h_^ ^AA,
 Angel ScViur, Building & Inspection Services Division Manager


DATE: February 29, 2024

SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM: PROPOSED REGULATIONS OF SHORT-
 TERM/VACATION RENTALS

In recent years, the Village has monitored an upwards of 80 short-term rentals (STRs), although
the number fluctuates depending on availability. There are currently 45 that are offered for rent
for a period of 30 days or less. The Village has experienced complaints with STRs and a Village
Trustee requested that the Village review the current conditions of this use in the Skokie
community. This memorandum provides a summary of the Village's current regulation of STRs
and has included additional recommendations to potentially regulate this use in the Village.


Summary/Background:
STRs are dwelling units or portions thereof that are offered a period up to 30 days. Presently, the
Village does not regulate this use, but in practice has treated each (when made aware of them) as
a rental property and requires units to be registered as a rental unit in the Village and for the
landlord/operator to attend the required landlord training. Following registration, the property is
placed on the regular Village inspection cycle.


In recent years, the popularity of STR units has grown in consumer preference. In early days of
Airbnb and VRBO, single rooms were offered or whole homes were offered sporadically; today
the industry has grown and investor groups buy entire homes and manage properties for
tourism/hospitality purposes. New sites such as Peerspace, offer homes for parties and special
events. Effectively residential properties are converted to commercial properties and bring
commercial activity to residential neighborhoods. Use of these properties often includes large
gatherings resulting in refuse more significant than a regular household, over-occupancy of the
property in conflict with life safety standards (e.g. sleeping rooms in spaces that are not allowed
by code) and use ofon-street parking in neighborhoods with already limited parking options.


Worldwide, communities are working to determine the best way to manage these uses. Each
community balances the range of impacting factors that can include neighborhood integrity, life
safety, parking, loss of housing units for local populations, noise generated by visitors on

vacation, and other issues. A matrix from the Northwest Municipal Conference is attached to
this memorandum and highlights how other area communities have addressed STRs.


The survey from the Northwest Municipal Conference indicates a range of responses and
regulations. Of the 19 communities that responded to the Northwest Municipal Conference
survey, nine have not enacted any legislation to regulate STRs. Approximately five responding
communities regulate through license or registration to various extents. Six of the responding
communities (inclusive of communities that have enacted regulating legislation and have not),
indicated that the STR use is in some way restricted or even a prohibited use under their
respective zoning codes in residential and some non-residential districts. In reviewing STR
offerings through AirBnb and VRBO while drafting this memorandum, nearly all communities
responding in the original survey showed available STRs in their community (whether the
municipality prohibited or permitted this use) during the month of March 2024.

The Village staff also recently participated in New York University's Housing Solutions Lab's
Peer Cities Network's review of STRs throughout the country. This review provided insight into
the growing national attention to this issue and the use of zoning, licensing, and other regulatory
measures to manage the increase in these uses.


New York City, in response to growing concerns that STR properties were being purchased and
rented to provide a steady stream of income for the owner, updated its STR regulations. STR
properties are required to not be rented less than 30 days unless the unit is occupied by the
owner. The owner may rent up to two rooms to tenants, for a less than 30-day term, providing
that the owner remains on site and every occupant has access to all areas of the home. Interior
doors may not be locked from the outside of the room with a key. Additionally, STR sites are
required to provide information on the listing that they have verified that the property is currently
registered with New York City.

Currently, the Village currently has approximately 45 STR units listed as available on Airbnb
and VRBO. Listings highlight amenities such as close to shopping, downtown Chicago, Wrigley
Field, and Northwestern University. The Village assesses the same 7.5% occupancy tax on these
stays as with fixed location hotels, however has not been collecting the tax due to the challenges
with working with the vendors such as Airbnb and VRBO (e.g. these agencies have not complied
with multiple Village requests to collect).

Recommendation:
There are a variety of ways communities across the globe have sought to regulate STRs to ensure
the character and integrity of neighborhoods are maintained and these properties remain safe and
attractive. This included limiting use to certain zoning districts, restricting the number of units an
owner is allowed to have within a community, owner-occupancy standards, and the number of
guests allowed per rental.

Based on best practices, staff recommends that the Village pursue the regulation of STRs with a
three-fold purpose: 1) to regulate these uses in residential neighborhoods in order to mitigate a
potential negative cumulative effect; 2) to enforce safety code compliance at these properties;
and 3) maintain the residential nature of neighborhoods.

The following is recommended to establish a STR registration/license program in the Village
Code:
 • Registration fees would be established based on type of occupancy (owner-occupied versus
 no-owner occupancy) Owners that are not on-site (or do not have this address as their
 primary residence)1, would be required to have an identified manager located within 15
 miles of the property.
 • STRs located in Rl and R2 districts must be owner-occupied hosted (meaning the owner is
 present during the STR guests stay in the property).
 • At least one off-street parking space must be available at the property for guests (in addition
 to what is available for residents of the home that may be on property during the stay).
 • No property shall be rented for a period less than two consecutive (2) nights/48 hours.
 • No more than two (2) STR properties may be on the same block or block face as other short-
 term rentals. Properties must be more than 1,000 feet from one another.
 • Prior to initial registration/license and/or annual renewal, notice to property owners within
 500 feet of the property must be sent that communicates information about the STR, the
 contact information for the property owner (primary address, email and phone information)
 local manager (24-hour contact with phone and email) and the Village of Skokie registration
 number.
 • Upon initial registration/license an inspection is to be conducted by the Building &
 Inspection Services Division and Fire Department. And the Village has the right to conduct
 inspections as needed following the initial inspection.
 • All gatherings/parties/socializing with individuals in excess of the allowed sleeping
 occupancy of the property must cease by 12:00 midnight on Friday and Saturday and 10:00
 pm Sunday through Thursday. No gatherings may take place outside of the property after
 12:00 midnight on Friday and Saturday and 10:00 pm Sunday through Thursday.
 • Property owners are required to indicate their registration number with the Village in the
 text of their advertisement.
 • Establish a fee schedule for offenses if found in violation of the STR registration program.
 • If property owners are found in violation of these standards, the Village reserves the right to
 revoke the license/registration.
 • Requirement of posting certain information on-site at the property for guests to review
 (include but not limited to allowed occupancy, an exit plan to be posted in the interior of the
 unit and bedrooms, and a statement of whether the STR is ADA accessible, information
 about parking, directions for refuse disposal and other prescribed property maintenance
 issues guests should be aware of).


If the Village Board would like to proceed, an ordinance will be drafted by the Corporation
Counsel's Office.

5 Owner occupancy (hosted) would be a requirement that the owner maintain occupancy of the unit while a STR
guest was at the property. Primary residence is defined as someone maintaining that property as their primary
address (e.g. driver's license address matches, maintain bomeowner exemption, etc.).

FROM:
 Mic^a^l M. Lorge, Corporation (^6unsel

DATE: February 29, 2024

SUBJECT: March 4, 2024 Corporation Counsel's Report




kA. Ordinance, Modified Review, 2023-02M, 5555 Touhy Avenue
 Item A is on the consent agenda for second reading and adoption. The first reading
 was on January 16, 2024.

 This ordinance wil! modify the existing site plan for the Village Crossing Shopping
 Center. It will allow Village Crossing to demolish the existing 667 space parking structure
 at the south end of the shopping center and replace it with 446 at-grade parking spaces.
 The approved modification will give the Skokie portion of Village Crossing a total of 2,557
 parking spaces, leaving a surplus of 763 spaces. This will also put in place a revised
 landscape plan. Many of the site plan approval conditions in the existing site plan,
 approved in 1989, specified items such as the construction of buildings and infrastructure,
 or contemplated specific retail businesses or uses that were never constructed. Removing
 these non relevant conditions serves to simplify the ordinance and match current
 conditions. Additionally, Village Ordinances 02-10-Z-3124 and 04-6-Z-3281 granting special
 uses for outdoor dining in a B4 Regional Shopping district are no longer required as this is
 now a permitted use. As such, for the sake of legislative economy, those ordinances will be
 repealed.

Unfinished Business.
Trustee Klein read a prepared statement;
We believe in the right of the public to share their views before the trustees of the Village of
Skokie, as first amendment speech is welcomed and encourage before us. But this is a meeting of
a public body conduct in public, not a meeting of the public to repeat the same views over and
over again. Such types of repetitive speech is not an exercise of free speech, rather, it leads to
chaos and makes for less than effective administration of the work of the public body. For this
reason, I call upon the Mayor and my colleagues to draft rules of order that would limit, upon
determination of a majority of the trustees, any member of the general public from repeatedly
making comment on the same subject matter. He asked the Legal department to draw up a
motion at the next meeting,



Public Comment.

questioned about Executive Sessions. Mayor explained that there are exceptions that the

there is active discussion by the participants. No public money has by given out.

could be re obligated to another project. There are legal issues that need to be worked thru.

Trustee Johnson continued short presentations on Reforming Village of Skokie Legal
Department.
