The Vacation Rental Management Association writes a letter to the Los Angeles City Council urging them to amend a proposed ordinance on short-term rentals. The VRMA argues that banning non-owner occupied rentals is difficult to enforce and does not achieve the city's goals. They also state that banning secondary home rentals may cause properties to sit vacant and that professionally managed rentals help increase compliance and tax collection. The VRMA urges the council to allow both primary residences and non-owner occupied homes to participate in short-term rentals.
