Once again, @TexasTREPAC is lobbying the #TXLege to strip TX cities of the power to regulate, zone or limit the # of short term rentals in their communities to preserve & protect long-term housing & residents’ safety, quality of life & sense of community. 1/4
TREPAC wrongly claims property owners have a “fundamental right to lease” a property as a STR, ignoring that STR guests are not granted a lease. According to Airbnb’s own terms of service, guests are merely granted a limited license. 2/4

@TexasTREPAC talks about the importance of “property rights”, but shows no respect or consideration for the property rights of its clients who bought homes in residential zones *in reliance* on that zoning because they wanted to live amongst a stable community of neighbors. 3/4
It’s profoundly disappointing & underhanded that *same* realtors who sold Texas families their dream homes in safe, stable residential neighborhoods are actively working to undermine the safety & sanctity of TX’s residential neighborhoods. 4/4 #LocalControl #CommunityNotCommodity
