impacts on their properties. Staff communicated with residents regarding the issues and
will work to help facilitate solutions. Staff contact: Brett Bourgeois, Engineering Services B. Nottingham Speed Study – On May 7, Mayor Pro Tem Beck shared resident concerns
regarding speeding on Nottingham. Staff conducted a speed study and found that most
drivers traveled between 33 to 34.1 MPH in a 30 MPH zone. Study findings show that the speed violation range has the potential for Police citations. Staff is coordinating efforts to install additional speed limit signs and conduct additional traffic studies to provide additional information in October. Staff contact: Farhan Butt, Transportation

They can help communities explore compatibility and develop the resources needed to maintain programming. The City held a Sister City relationship with the City of San Nicolás de los Garza, Nuevo Leon, Mexico from 2000-
2004 and holds an existing Friendship City relationship with City of Múzquiz, Coahuila,
Mexico since 2015. Staff contact: Lauren Thoden, City Secretary Office

INFORMAL STAFF REPORT
TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
SUBJECT: Funding recommendations from the Community Services Advisory Committee (CSAC) for the proposed activities to be included in the 2024 Action Plan.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Community Services is currently preparing the 2024 Action Plan that provides recommendations for the use of federal community development funding in the City of Denton. The draft 2024 Action Plan for the Program Year from October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025, represents
the second year in the City’s 2023-2027 Consolidated Plan for Housing and Community
Development (linked). Community Services Advisory Committee (CSAC) recommendations for the allocation of $1,747,703.16 of local and federal funding are included in the 2024 Action Plan, which will be posted for public comment May 20 through June 21. A public hearing for the plan will be held
June 18, 2024, during the regular City Council meeting.
DISCUSSION:
Community Development Funding Overview As a recipient of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment
Partnership (HOME) program funds, the City of Denton is required to submit a three or five-year Consolidated Plan (Con Plan) for Housing and Community Development and a corresponding annual Action Plan to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). These federal funds are received annually to support the Con Plan and the activities outlined in the City’s annual Action Plan. In 2023, the City submitted a five-year Con Plan for the following program
years.
• 2023-24 Action Plan - Year 1/Current Year
• 2024-25 Action Plan – Year 2/Recommendations
• 2025-26 Action Plan - Year 3
• 2026-27 Action Plan – Year 4
• 2027-28 Action Plan – Year 5
The annual Action Plan is developed based on strategies outlined in the Con Plan and provides a description of how funds are allocated each Program Year. The annual Action Plan is reviewed and approved by City Council for submission to HUD.
The Community Services Advisory Committee (CSAC) advises the City Council on programs, services, and use of public resources to address complex social problems such as economic instability, housing, homelessness, and meeting community service needs. The CSAC reviews applications for the Community Development Grant Program annually and makes funding
recommendations to City Council which includes distribution of local (General Fund) and federal (CDBG and HOME) sources of funding.

Committee Recommendations
On April 12, 2024, the CSAC finalized recommendations to City Council for the 2024 Action
Plan. All projects and programs to be approved by HUD under the 2024 Action Plan are funded through CDBG, HOME, and program income from the use of these funds. In addition to federal funds, the City Council allocates General Fund dollars each year to provide grants for social service agencies.
The CSAC reviewed funding requests and developed recommendations during their April 12 meeting for the use of CDBG, HOME and City General Fund dollars. The detailed list of funding recommendations including project descriptions, is included in Exhibit 2. Below is a summary of total funding requests and recommendations by funding source. The amount requested and eligible
for HOME funds exceeds the amount available, so $309,310.16 is available as unprogrammed
funds. The unprogrammed funds will be allocated through a substantial amendment process required by HUD by the end of the year.

INFORMAL STAFF REPORT
TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
SUBJECT: Short-Term Rental Code Amendments
BACKGROUND:
Staff is preparing to bring forward proposed Code amendments relating to Short-Term Rentals to the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council at their May 29, 2024 and June 4 2024, respectively. The Short-Term Rental Code amendments are the product of extensive discussion with the Development Code Review Committee, completion of a Public Engagement Plan, and research conducted by staff of the City’s requirements against other recent legislation as well as
how other cities regulate the land use. Following a continuance of the public hearing from their February 28, 2024 meeting, the Short-Term Rental Code amendments were unanimously recommended for approval by the Planning and Zoning Commission [7-0] at their March 20, 2024 meeting. However, due to continually
evolving litigation surrounding Short-Term Rentals, staff has determined it necessary to conduct a broader public notification process for the Short-Term Rental Code amendments by providing a mailed notice to property owners instead of following the standard legal notice published in the newspaper as allowed by state law.
Therefore, staff is sending this item back to the Planning and Zoning Commission for public hearing on May 29, 2024. Staff has sent mailed notice of public hearing (See Attachment 3) for both the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council meetings to property owners within all zoning districts, except Light Industrial, Heavy Industrial and Public Facilities as well as some older Planned Developments, which do not allow for the use under current or proposed regulations.
A total of 29,371 notices were mailed to property owners. A video recording of the February 28th Planning and Zoning Commission meeting may be found here: Feb 28, 2024 Planning and Zoning Commission on 2024-02-28 5:00 PM - Denton, TX (swagit.com) A video recording of the March 20th Planning and Zoning Commission meeting may be found here: Mar 20, 2024 Planning and Zoning Commission on 2024-03-20 5:45 PM - Denton, TX (swagit.com)
SUMMARY: The following is a high-level overview of some of the more frequently asked questions related to the proposed code amendments.
What is a Short-Term Rental?
A Short-Term Rental is defined as the rental of an entire dwelling unit for monetary consideration for a period of time less than 30 consecutive days. This could be a house, an accessory dwelling unit, or an individual apartment and is not considered the same as a bed and breakfast, boarding
12
May 8, 2024 Report No. 2024-017
or rooming house, hotel, or motel. Short-Term Rentals are commonly advertised and rented through sites such as AirBnB and Vrbo.
What is changing and why? The purpose of the proposed DDC amendments is to allow Short-Term Rentals in all zoning districts that allow residential uses, including adding the use to the Mixed-Use Downtown (MD), Mixed-Use Regional (MR), Suburban Corridor (SC), Highway Corridor (HC) and General Office (GO) districts. Additionally, the amendments are intended to provide additional clarification and
operational controls related to this use. The amendments being proposed balance current land use rights, coupled with the desire of the community to preserve residential neighborhood character yet allowing higher densities of short-term rentals within certain areas of the City.
Several of the proposed changes are designed to clarify and consolidate existing short-term rental
regulations, including better defining what classifies as a short-term rental and modification to the registration process. Additionally, in order to limit the number of short-term rentals occurring in residential neighborhoods, the City is introducing a 1,000-unit cap on the number of short-term rentals that can be allowed in the City in residential zoning districts. Additionally, in residential
zoning districts, a minimum 100-foot distance separation is required between properties with short-
term rentals. Lastly, the new requirements will limit the number of short-term rentals allowed in multifamily developments by limiting the allowable number of units to be registered as a Short-Term Rental to 10%.
What is the 1,000 Unit Cap?
The 1,000 Short-Term Rental limit is a cap on the number of Short-Term Rentals that could be allowed in residentially zoned districts (Rural Residential-Residential 7) in a given calendar year. The 1,000 Short-Term Rental limit is a proposed cap on the number of Short-Term Rentals which may be permitted in residential zoning districts, not an invitation to bring more Short-Term Rentals
into these areas. 1,000 units is approximately 3% of all residentially zoned parcels in the City of
Denton.
How many Short-Term Rentals exist in the City today? There are estimated to be approximately 353 Short-Term Rentals in City. Of those, only 33 Short-
Term Rentals have registered with the City as required by the Denton Development Code and are
therefore legally conforming to current standards. Staff does not anticipate the proposed Code amendments will affect the total number of Short-Term Rentals operating within the City; however, one of the goals of the proposed amendments is to achieve greater compliance with the DDC, and therefore the number of registered Short-Term Rentals is anticipated to increase.
What resources are available for those who have questions regarding the amendments? City staff will be hosting a Town Hall on Thursday, May 23, 2024, at 6:30 p.m. in the Development Services Center to provide an overview of the proposed amendments and answer any questions regarding the project. In addition, on the Discuss Denton webpage dedicated to Short-Term Rentals
individuals may access and review the proposed amendments, be notified of key upcoming dates,
and review F.A.Q.s related to the project. The Discus Denton webpage may be found here: Short-Term Rentals | Discuss Denton

May 8, 2024 Report No. 2024-017
When will the Short-Term Rental Code amendments be scheduled for Public Hearing? The Planning and Zoning Commission will conduct a public hearing and make a recommendation on the proposed amendments at their May 29, 2024, meeting. City Council will conduct a public
hearing and act on the proposed amendments at their June 4, 2024 meeting. A more detailed summary of the proposed Code amendments and detailed information related to the history of the project is included in this report below.
SUMMARY OF PROPOSED AMENDMENTS AND PROJECT HISTORY:
Summary of Amendments A summary of the proposed modifications is included below; a redline draft of the relevant DDC Sections with further discussion can be found attached to this report:
• Amend Table 5.2.A Table of Allowed Uses to allow Short-Term Rentals as a permitted use in any Zoning District that allows residential uses by right or by Specific Use Permit; new districts being added include Mixed-Use Downtown (MD), Mixed-Use Regional (MR), Suburban Corridor (SC), Highway Corridor (HC) and General Office (GO).
• Amend Section 5.3 Use-Specific Standards by amending Subsection 5.3.1.D Maximum
Persons Occupying a Dwelling Unit to include Short-Term Rentals as an exempt land use from this regulation. This amendment is consistent with recent court rulings as in the case of Zaatari v. City of Austin, 615 S.W.3d 172, 199 [Tex. App. 2019]).
• Amend 5.3.5 Commercial Use Specific Standards, Subsection T. Short-Term Rentals as
follows: 1. Registration Requirements – amendments to this Section include: clarification that a single bedroom or a unit may be listed as a Short-Term Rental, requirements to provide management company information (when applicable), clarifies Local Emergency
Contact is a defined term in the DDC, and adds additional detail regarding registration
submittal requirements. 2. Registration Certificates – this section is a proposed addition to the Short-Term Rental Use Specific Standards to address the results of the short-term rental preference survey, reflecting a desire in residents to maintain the integrity of single-family areas while
allowing higher densities of short-term rentals within certain areas of the City. The
proposed amendments are differentiated between properties that are within residential versus non-residential zoning districts, which are less likely to be disrupted by the presence of Short-Term Rentals due to current density, and therefore, provide adequate opportunities for this use to operate outside the City’s residential neighborhoods. These
differences are outlined below:
Registration Certificates in Residential Zoning Districts (RR-R7):
• One thousand (1,000)- Registration Certificates. The Department of Development Services shall issue a maximum of one thousand (1,000) short-
term rental (STR) registration certificates per calendar year in Residential Zoning Districts (RR-R7). Note for clarification: registration certificates are
per STR unit, and the registration certificate cap applies to all residential use
14
May 8, 2024 Report No. 2024-017
types (single-family, duplex, three-and four-plexes, multi-family, etc.) within
the RR-R7 zoning districts.
• The Department of Development Services shall process applications in the order of receipt and shall issue new registration certificates in the order that complete applications are received.
• If the number of registration certificates reaches the one thousand (1,000)-

Project History At the beginning of 2023, City staff began reviewing the standards set forth in the Denton
Development Code (DDC) regarding Short-Term Rental uses in response to the 5th Circuit Court’s decision in the case of Hignell-Stark v. City of New Orleans. In this case, the 5th Circuit held that the City of New Orleans’ regulation requiring Short-Term Rental applicants to demonstrate that the Short-Term Rental dwelling unit was their primary residence was unconstitutional under the
dormant federal Commerce Clause. In reviewing this court decision, staff determined that a DDC
requirement that a Short-Term Rental be the applicant’s primary residence could be legally challenged and initiated the Code amendment process to remove this requirement from the DDC; this change was adopted by City Council on July 25, 2023.
During that same time, staff reviewed the City’s requirements against other recent legislation as
well as how other cities regulate the land use. In addition to the change noted above as a result of the 5th Circuit’s decision, staff identified several areas where there was a need for clarification and consolidation of existing language in the DDC relating to Short-Term Rentals including addressing the Use-Specific Standards due to the potential for application or enforcement challenges. While
many of these changes began with the intent to clean up and clarify items within the Code,
throughout the process additional legislative issues came to light through court cases involving the cities of Arlington, Fort Worth, and Dallas that helped inform staff recommended changes. The history of the process as well as a summary of the proposed changes are provided below.
On March 13, 2023, staff presented to the Development Code Review Committee (DCRC) their
findings regarding the City’s current regulations related to the Short-Term Rental land use, discussed reasons why the Code amendments are needed, shared how other cities regulate Short-Term Rental uses, and recommended proposed Code amendments. Throughout the Spring of 2023, the DCRC continued to discuss the proposed Code amendments related to Short-Term
Rental uses at a series of meetings.
After completing their review and providing staff direction on proposed Code amendments, the DCRC and staff determined it necessary to prepare a Public Engagement Plan in order to receive input from the community related to the proposed Short-Term Rental regulations before initiating
the formal public hearing process associated with DDC amendments. As part of the Public
Engagement Plan, staff held two Town Hall Meetings (one in person and one virtually) in August 2023 and conducted an online survey regarding Short-Term Rentals. The online survey was published on Discuss Denton on Friday, August 18, 2023, and closed on
Monday, September 11, 2023, and a total of 224 individuals participated. The survey consisted of
20 questions, which ranged from general questions related to Short-Term Rentals, to specific questions related to possible DDC amendments.

May 8, 2024 Report No. 2024-017
The full survey results report is attached to this report.
During the DCRC meeting on September 25, 2023, staff sought direction from the DCRC on how to proceed with maximum densities/distance separations for Short-Term Rentals given the survey results indicated a desire in respondents to maintain the integrity of single-family areas while allowing higher densities of Short-Term Rentals within certain areas of the City. Discussion centered around exploring different density thresholds for Short-Term Rentals and considering
imposing a maximum number of allowable Short-Term Rentals within the City. In the Fall of 2023, the DCRC revisited the density limitation and distance separation discussions considering the survey responses and explored various options for implementation. Over the
course of these discussions, staff presented the potential implementation of a maximum number of
Short-Term Rental permits issued per year in residential zoning districts. Conversations related to a maximum number of Short-Term Rental permits issued in residential zoning districts focused on the appropriate number of allowable units, separation distances between registered units, and a maximum allowable number of units that may be registered within multifamily buildings.
The DCRC directed staff to move forward with a maximum number of Short-Term Rental permits which may be issued per year in residential zoning districts and agreed upon a cap of 1,000 permits. It was also agreed that there should be a limitation on the number of units allowed to be registered as Short-Term Rentals within multifamily buildings, and the Committee agreed to a cap of 10%
of all units within an individual multifamily development. In addition, a minimum distance
separation of 100 feet between registered Short-Term Rentals in residential zoning districts, measured property line to property line, was agreed upon to further address the density concerns in single-family residential areas.
On January 8, 2024, after consensus was reached on proposed amendments, and due to the
continually evolving litigation surrounding Short-Term Rentals, staff presented research on the City of Arlington’s Short-Term Rental regulations, including a summary of their adopted regulations and a comparison of Arlington’s regulations versus the proposed amendments being considered for Denton. Following discussion, the DCRC directed staff to bring the proposed
amendments before the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council for public hearing and
consideration. As mentioned earlier in this report, the Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously recommended approval [7-0] of the proposed amendments at their meeting on March 20, 2024 (following a public hearing continuance from their February 28, 2024 meeting).
