Public Hearing

The St. Ignace City Council will be holding a public hearing on Monday, Oct. 17, 2022 at 6:00p.m. The hearing will be held virtually via Zoom and in person at City Hall. The purpose of the hearing is to receive public comment on proposed zoning ordinance amendments to the Short-term Rental Ordinance. The changes would remove the variance requirement for Category 2 short-term rentals in residential zones, and make short-term rentals with valid permits, limited to 50, an allowed use in all residential zones. The proposed changes are below:

"Delete from Ordinance No. 38-364 of 2021
10) Per Ordinance Section 38-121, Ordinance Section 38-151, and Ordinance Section 38-181, no Category 2 short-term rental unit will be allowed in residential zoned R1, R2, R3, and R4 districts without a variance.
(11) Variance requests related to short-term Rental units shall be directed to the Zoning Board of Appeals.
(12) Once granted, a variance allowing a Category 2 STR transfers with the property. A new property owner must apply for a permit as described in this ordinance No. 38-364, part 2, (e) Permit (3) ownership.

ADD to Chapter 38
Chapter 38 Zoning Division 2 R1 Residential Sec 38-121, 9. Short Term Rental of a dwelling, provided that the property owner holds a current valid permit.” (as required by Ordinance No. 38-364 of 2021)
