AirBNBs Allowed To Remain in Lafayette
Short-term rental properties will continue to operate in the city of Lafayette.
The Lafayette Board of Zoning Adjustment denied an appeal from residents of a central Lafayette neighborhood to overturn zoning director Mary Sliman s decision to allow short-term rental properties within city limits. The 3-2 vote came after three hours of public comments on the matter. Garland Pennison and board chairman Chris German voted against the denial.
The appeal stemmed from a complaint about a single property on Iris Lane.
Gordon Schoeffler, a lawyer and neighbor, told the zoning board he and his fellow neighbors were worried about transient neighbors who came and went from the house. Other nearby residents, like Jeanne Langlinais, asked the board to overturn the decision spoke of their fear for their children s safety, especially when finding strangers standing outside near their homes early in the morning.
