Cleveland City Council- File Photo
(Cleveland)- Cleveland City Council members apparently are not interested in allowing Short Term Rentals in the city. The idea to amend the city’s zoning ordinance to allow for this type of operation was first proposed in August by City Administrator Tom O’Bryant. At that time some council members had some concerns and O’Bryant said those issues could be addressed before the second reading and adoption.
Monday night the issue was back on the council’s meeting agenda for consideration and possible adoption, but when Mayor Josh Turner called for a motion for adoption all council members sit silently for over a minute.
Finally, Mayor Turner ask City Attorney Grant Keene if there is no motion does the issue die, attorney Keene said “I think so. “ The mayor then moved on to the next item on the agenda.
