REMINDER THE PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING IS THIS WEDNESDAY THE 23RD AT 9 AM. SEE LINK BELOW TO SIGN UP TO SPEAK BY PHONE OR ZOOM. YOU MUST SIGN UP BY TOMORROW (TUESDAY AT 9AM IN ORDER TO SPEAK OR ZOOM). AGENDA ITEM IS SHORT TERM RENTALS ORDINANCE 927.2
Idyllwild/Pine Cove has a Tier 3 Extreme fire danger rating and is deemed more vulnerable than Paradise was before their fire. To preserve the health, safety and welfare of our town we need you to speak out via phone, zoom, or in person at the upcoming RivCo Planning Commission hearing next Wednesday August 23rd. This planning session is devoted solely to the new STR draft 927.2 which we believe ignores the potential fire hazards caused by too many STR's in our community. Therefore we are urging the county to do the following:
1) Adopt a hard 10% cap of 350 STRs for Idyllwild/Pine Cove;
2) Adopt a 300’ density limit between STRs preventing over saturation of any one given neighborhood;
3) No STR’s allowed on non county roads where fire trucks cannot pass or can pass with only great difficulty;
4) Business insurance requirement for STR’s;
5) Routine fire inspections to insure exit routes, safe wood stoves, extinguishers and fire suppression for each STR.
As noted, Aug 23, next Wednesday, is the Planning Commission hearing: Please call, attend in person or via zoom into the hearing and ask for these basic measures to ensure our safety! Links are provided below. These are the most effective ways to get your voice heard.
