DISSENTING OPINION BY
SENIOR JUDGE COLINS
I respectfully dissent from the well-written, scholarly opinion of the majority.
However, I feel that all of the evidence of record supports the trial court’s affir-mance of the Board’s decision that appellants are using the property, not as a single-family dwelling, but rather are conducting a short-term transient lodging business. No doubt can exist that the intended meaning of the ordinance was not to allow the property to be used as a short-term rental unit for multiple families and/or individuals. Transient short-term rentals for multiple families, or groups were not included within the drafters’ intentions when restricting the zoning use to that of single-family properties.
