B.C. municipalities join provincial plan to clamp down on AirBnB rentals
April 19, 2024
Seventeen B.C. towns and rural areas have opted in to new provincial rules that significantly curtail short-term vacation rentals, joining 60 municipalities where people hosting properties on platforms such as Airbnb will be limited to renting out only their principal residences.Under the legislation, which takes effect May 1, hosts will also be required to register with the province. The rules, announced last fall, automatically apply to hosts in any city with a population greater than 10,000, but smaller communities were also able to opt in.
