The TNGOP party of smaller government and fierce independence from overreaching federal mandates is advancing their own mandates to local governments regarding short-term rentals.

SB1086:

This bill prohibits a local governing body from:

(1) Prohibiting the use of property as a short-term rental unit; or

(2) Restricting the use of or otherwise regulate a short-term rental unit based on the short-term rental unit's classification, use, or occupancy.
