RANDOLPH, Utah. November 2, 2016. Mitch
Poulsen, Bear Lake Regional Commission director, said the Short Term Rental
draft ordinance has been reviewed by the attorney. If the ordinance is passed, Poulsen believes there
may be an increase of rental properties since it will eliminate uncertainty for
investors.
Garden City has developed an excellent
software package to manage the short term rentals in the county. It shows that there are 21 homes that are
short term rentals in the county. These
rentals are found by “sweeping” the internet for advertisements on the internet.
The software will be purchased by the
BLRC at a cost of $5,000.
Poulsen wants to get additional
grant funding for the bike path. They
would like to complete the section from
Ideal Beach to past Gus Rich Point or from Rendezvous Park to state park rest
area. Poulsen thinks they could get $150,000 and find a
match. Commissioners told him to go after any funding he could find. They were
fine with the concept. Money for the path could come from Transportation
Alternatives Grant, Restaurant Tax and donations.
“Now that the high water mark has
been established around the lake perhaps the trail could be elevated and separated from the
road,” said Bill Cox.
