The Spotsylvania County Planning Commission is again considering an ordinance to regulate short-term rentals around Lake Anna. The County considered a similar ordinance back in 2024, but no substantive changes were made during that consideration. The biggest change that property owners would see is the requirement that maximum occupancy of the dwelling would be based on the “permitted per person per day occupancy rating of the sewage disposal system”. This interpretation of occupancy could impact property owners who have bedrooms with multiple beds intended for small children.
FAAR will communicate the dates of any public hearings on this ordinance so that interested parties can attend and speak their mind. Read the full ordinance by clicking the button below.
