Columbia Charter Township in Jackson County, Michigan proposed a Short-Term Rental Ordinance designed to regulate short-term rental properties while preserving the township's residential, lake living, and agricultural character. The ordinance addresses community concerns about noise, disorderly conduct, overcrowding, traffic, parking, and potential loss of neighborhood character, while recognizing that short-term rentals provide community benefits through expanded lodging options and owner revenue. The ordinance applies to the rental of entire dwelling units on a short-term basis throughout the township outside Village of Brooklyn limits, and excludes owner-occupied rentals, bed and breakfasts, hotels, motels, marinas, and senior care facilities, with all requirements intended to supplement existing zoning ordinance requirements.
