STATE BILLS IN PROGRESS
Senate Bill 953
This bill would prohibit a governing body from prohibiting short-term rentals except under certain circumstances; provide that local accommodations taxes must be collected, remitted, and administered in the same manner as in section 12-36-920; include rentals facilitated by a lodging marketplace in the definition of beach preservation fee; provide that any taxes imposed upon lodging accommodations be collected and administered by the department of revenue in the same manner as in section 12-36-920; provide that a person operating as a lodging marketplace be considered a “retailer” or “seller”; provide that transactions by lodging marketplaces are subject to the seven percent sales tax.
House Bill 4464
This bill would make it unlawful for companies to engage in the real estate brokerage business unless its activities are conducted by licensees or under the supervision of a broker-in-charge or property manager-in-charge; and include provisions concerning short-term and long-term rentals and the conduct of real estate brokerage work. This bill is believed to trump the H3253 “Hewitt Bill”.
