“Just for a little bit of clarity, so some of these limits are to put us in alignment with some of the federal rules. We talked about that in the briefing. So I just want the public to understand that that's also a consistency with other standards. So they're not done just to increase, but because there's alignment with federal law as well.”

“Thanks, Vice Mayor Harper. My activity since our last meeting included the following. On August 20th, I participated in the Orange County Concerts in the Park event at Freedom Hall, hosted by our supervisor, Janet Wynn, and county staff. Also, Councilman Bowie was on stage. That was a lot of fun. We welcome the band called Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, which drew a very large crowd to the outdoor stage. It certainly has been a great summer of concerts at Miles Square Park. On August 22nd, I also attended the grand opening and ribbon cutting for the new pickler business at the former Rite Aid Thrifty…”

“Other council comments? Looking for some direction, either option one or option two?”
City Council · Aug 18, 2026
- Play at 58:13
“Yes, and just for clarity, so Councilman Bowie, option one or option two? It wasn't clear.”
City Council · Aug 18, 2026
- Play at 1:00:33
“And I would say option one is really what the public expects from us as policy leaders. I'll never forget all of that public comment four years ago. And so I'm just kind of anticipating how the public would would receive a change in policy. The other thing to consider, Olympics are long-term. They're usually six to seven weeks. That's not a short-term rental. And so you may have people that want to do long-term rentals, and that's okay.”
