Ordinance:

The City Council voted unanimously Monday to approve an ordinance that requires Auburn residents to register with the city before starting a home-sharing operation…

 

The ordinance allows home-sharing establishments in all residential zones. Proprietors will need to pay a $57 licensing fee and obtain a $27 business permit. If neighbors within 100 feet object to the enterprise, proprietors can appeal to the Auburn Planning Commission and the City Council.

 

The city will not be collecting occupancy taxes on the rooms.
