STR
Corpus Christi City Council Hearing 11:30am
My name is Gloria Campos and my husband and I
lived in Corpus from 2010-2019. During that time
we purchased our first home.
When we moved we decided to offer the house as
a STR due to the flexibility of still being able to use
our own home when in town and not have it vacant
for long periods of time. We also decided to try this
option because as a family we love to stay in STR
when taking road trips.
The outcome of our decision has been a favorable
one. We have hosted many families that come back
again and again to Corpus Christi and the reason is
they found a home away from home. A STR
provides the comfort of your own home and
families are looking for that.
This has also created jobs such as maintenance
and housekeeping and brought business to many
restaurants we recommend.
I do not see why a STR is viewed as less favorable

Topic STR's
Agenda Item Number 000
Describe Feedback: Can the council please address the difference
between a "bed and breakfast home" and a Type 1
STR?
Would the council consider having a different fee
structure for Type 1 and Type 2 STR's? Type 1 is
more likely to be a bedroom in a home, or a small
ADU, and is likely not available for guests on a
continual basis. The revenue generated by Type 1 is
likely more occasional revenue than consistent, and
may create a greater burden for these hosts than
Type 2.
Type 2 is more likely to be full condos or homes
generating significantly more income than Type 1.
Also Type 1 are local homesteaders who should
have some benefit for living, working, and paying
taxes in the local community.

Describe Feedback:
The only complaints on STRs were coming from NPI which is now being banned upon the passing of this Ordinance. Why are you
imposing such heavy-handed government regulation on the rest of us when there have been ZERO complaints? Galveston is probably
the closest city to Corpus Christi. Galveston charges $50/year for a permit and there are NO density requirements. 15% density is too
low. 33% was being proposed a few months ago. You will have people who don't want STRs on their street so they will apply for their
own home with no intention of renting it out. They will lock out someone else who wants to run an STR from receiving a permit and
the City will lose HOT money. Because of this Ordinance, is the City going to have some real-time map of where STR permits are
currently active? If I'm in the market to purchase a STR home, how am I going to know before purchasing if I can short-term rent that
home or not? Too many laws turn people who should be innocent into criminals.

Describe Feedback:
As of 6/24, Sec. 5-24 (G) was amended to add a "registered local contact shall be available by phone 24 hours a day to answer calls
from the complaint helpline". This is unrealistic. I'm supposed to be available 24/7? At 3am, I'm supposed to answer my phone? The
Ordinance goes on to say that I have 1 hour to resolve the complaint and, if I do not, I am in violation of the Ordinance. And assuming
I do answer my phone at 3am, I'm supposed to have the complaint resolved by 4am? If there's a complaint at 3am for someone
violating a noise ordinance, the police should respond. What if a grumpy neighbor lives next to you and calls in a false complaint to
the hotline every hour? They're not filing a false police report so there will be no consequences for petty or non -nuisance
"complaints" constantly being called in. Can they call in a complaint anonymously? That will add to the problems. This section 5-24 (G)
places the burden of proof on STR owners so we are guilty until proven innocent.

Short Term Rentals
Public Comment
Describe Feedback:
As a local REALTOR and resident of Corpus Christi, I would like to see no restrictions on home owners in Corpus Christi to be able to
use their personal property how they see fit. If a home owner wants to use their property for short term rentals, they should be able
to do so. They are always the best kept homes in the neighborhood (they have to be for continued business and good reviews). The
"threat" of partiers and public disturbances can happen from owners or long term renters in neighborhoods at any time and can be
corrected through city ordinances and enforcement. I've stayed in numerous short term rentals in many different cities and they are
always well kept and we have always kept the peace. It always made for a great experience and made me want to return to different
cities/areas. With a larger family, hotels don't work for us. Please don't limit short term rentals in our beautiful, vacation destination
city. Thank you I

Topic STR Rental Regulations
Agenda Item Number Short Term Rentals
I'm here to support Short Term Rentals as they bring much needed revenue to our city.
Our City Counsel needs to be open on this issue instead of always trying to shoot down our city's growth. Our city has always
been know as a stalemate city. Our old fashion lawmakers need to realize that our city is a jewel and deserves to grow and
encompass new ideas. Once the Harbor Bridge is completed it will be a game changer to our city and I do hope we have law
Describe Feedback: makers that want our city to grow and prosper and not restrict commerce. Short Term Rentals is one of those avenues in our
ever changing world. Short Term Rental companies work very hard to ensure that host abide and enforce rules to where it's not
a nuisance to our city. With inflation and interest rates going through the roof what rights does the city have to restive a person
renting out his home for extra money or profit. I understand that there can be permits etc but the city has no right to eliminate
this.

1 have been an Airbnb host for 7 years STR properties are an asset to a community and owner The ability to earn income and
upkeep your property with regular inspections and maintenance are a landlord dream. As a daughter of a landlord and a landlord
myself having long term rentals it's quiet the opposite. Long term renters are unfortunately rarely concerned about upkeep and
maintenance. Lower income especially can be not only a eye sore but in frequent violations of city ordinances. With my
experience in both rental management positions for our city STR permitting by far the best decision the city ever made. My only
concern is the restrictions on padre island. This is the true vacation area and investors and Airbnb are vital for our 10 million
visitors a year. We do not have enough hotels and stopping STR in This area will leave the city open to litigation. I do not have a
property in this location so this is my opinion and want what is best for our city. Thank you

STR are what brings valuable tourism dollars to the city of Corpus Christi. Airbnb is a great platform that ensures we get quality
renters to visit the beautiful North Padre island and Mustang Island. Airbnb hind it's hosts to high standards. The individuals that
have purchased single family homes know they are purchasing in an island with thousands of visitors per year. Everyone investors
or home owner knows they island is meant to be shared with visitors from all over the world. It is not an island onto itself. I agree
that some ordinance need to be out in place for law and order. This is still USA and we as home owners should be allowed to do
what we wish with our properties with reasonable laws and ordnances. Please allow STR owners to continue their business and
thrive in the islands. It will only bring more revenue to businesses in the area.

Support for STR properties in Flour Bluff area
22-1091
Voice my strong support for the City Council updating ordinance requirements for Short Term Rentals (STR) allowed in Flour Bluff
residential neighborhoods. I own a small waterfront cabin on Shore drive 3 lots down from the old commercial fishing marina
which has been recently purchased by Black Diamond Oyster Bar. We are asking our Council for a provision to allow STR of
residential properties to provide out of town guests a unique experience to the coastal bend. The permit will be strictly adhered
to and we will follow all rules and code per instructed. This is a unique property with incredible views to our Laguna Madre
Estuary including an open view to the JFK, Pita Island and miles of open waters. Thank you for your support and consideration.
Sincerely Jeff Nesloney 361-446-3907

Agenda Item Number Str regulations
Describe Feedback: This location has been known for tourist and once
the bridge is done I believe there will be more need
for str at this location and nearby. We pay property
taxes just like everyone else and probably more due
to location. Why should we have to pay a str
permitting fee as well?
