A distinction is made between short-term rentals of primary residences (permitted throughout the Town) and short-term rentals of tourist residences, known as commercial tourist accommodation, which would be subject to several conditions. In both cases, prior to obtaining any authorization from the Town, certifications would be required concerning the compliance of the septic installation, fire safety compliance and the quality of the drinking water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The proposals will be submitted to Town Council, which is expected to decide on their adoption at its June 7 meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/sutton.ca\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Town-of-Sutton-SHORT-TERM-RENTAL-presentation-22-04-2023-EN.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">presentation document<\/a> has been posted on the <a href=\"https:\/\/revons.sutton.ca\/en\/short-term-rental\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dream Sutton<\/a> website, in the Useful Links section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The public meeting was recorded and can be viewed on the Town&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCho_cik7f5pK2CjJ0f5dxSA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">YouTube channel<\/a> in the Information Sessions section.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Town presented a new proposal for a regulatory approach to short-term rentals at the public meeting held last Saturday, April 22, 2023.
