Most of the units in a proposed Beach Meadows triplex will be reserved for long-term renters.<\/p>\n

The developers, Albert and Paula Doucet asked Region of Queens to issue a development agreement permitting all three planned units, to be used for short-term rentals.<\/p>\n

The proponents wanted the property zoning changed from Hamlet Residential (HR) to Hamlet Core (HC) to allow the rentals.<\/p>\n

During a public hearing held ahead of the last Region of Queens council meeting, residents spoke overwhelmingly in favour of maintaining the current planning rules which limits the number of short-term rentals to one.<\/p>\n

Mayor Darlene Norman says the residents who spoke were passionate about keeping their community residential.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd they see the possibility of three short-term rental units as the demise or negative to their residential way of life in that community.\u201d<\/p>\n

After a discussion, a majority of council agreed that the area is residential and should remain so.<\/p>\n

They voted to maintain the status quo and allow one short-term and two long-term rentals on the property.<\/p>\n
