A bill dealing with short-term rentals sponsored by Prescott area State Representative Selina Bliss passed the House Commerce Committee with bipartisan support. The measure would strengthen enforcement tools and public-safety rules for vacation and short-term rentals while preserving Arizona’s statewide regulatory framework.
Bliss, who chairs the House Health and Human Services Committee, says the bill gives cities and towns clear, limited authority to address repeat problem properties, unsafe conditions, and disruptive activity without penalizing responsible property owners.
She says neighbors deserve peace and basic safety in their own homes, adding the legislation restores order and provides communities with tools they have needed for years.
