This session will highlight ordinances and practices that have been found to reduce water use in new development, discuss programs that Weber Basin Water Conservancy District has made available to water users in the area, and provide an opportunity to learn some best practices for planners across the region.
Short-term Rentals: The Pros and the Cons »
2023 Fall Conference, September 28, 2023 10:10 amShort-term rentals are a concern in communities across the state. As Weber County has worked with property owners and elected and appointed officials, we have adopted a code that will help maintain neighborhood character and allow for STRs in a well-regulated way. Weber County has also partnered with a third-party enforcement group to help gather information about STRs in the County and respond to residents’ concerns. This session will discuss the progress we’ve made in enforcement and regulation of STRs.
