Board of Zoning Appeals

Board to decide appeal on short‑term rental rights for 224 Floral Ave & 410 Hudson St

The Board of Zoning Appeals will review Appeal ZONE-25-9 concerning 224 Floral Avenue and 410 Hudson Street. The appeal challenges the Zoning Administrator’s finding that the owner did not have established rights because City occupancy taxes were not current at the time the Short‑Term Rental Ordinance took effect. The Board will determine whether the lack of tax payments precludes the properties from continuing full‑time short‑term rentals. A public hearing will be held for this appeal.
