Miami Tackles Short-Term Rental Chaos | Miami News

Miami’s city commission is diving deep into the chaos caused by short-term rentals in condo buildings, gathering data on violations and studying how other cities navigate Florida’s restrictive state laws. Despite a 2011 law that froze local control over vacation rentals, some city regulations — like Miami’s zoning code — still hold up in court, creating a patchwork of rules across neighborhoods. With safety and quality-of-life concerns mounting as enforcement lags, the commission wants a clear picture: how many licenses are out there, what complaints have been filed, and how these rentals strain city services. If approved, the city manager has 90 days to deliver a detailed report focusing on multi-violation condos, while the city attorney will outline legal tactics from other cities. This could be Miami’s first real step toward smarter, more effective enforcement — even if it’s playing within state-imposed limits.
