PRESENTER: Cori Reaume, Director of Planning SUMMARY: Revisions are proposed to the zoning ordinance to include short-term rentals into the City's Table of Permitted Uses, along with additional regulations related to both location and operational details. GENERAL DESCRIPTION: The City's zoning ordinance establishes districts or zones in accordance with the comprehensive plan for the purpose of promoting the public health, safety, morals and general welfare. One of the ways in which this is done is by establishing regulations and districts with reasonable consideration for the character of each district and its peculiar suitability for particular land uses, with a view of conserving the value of buildings and encouraging the most appropriate use of land within the City. The proposed zoning amendment is city-initiated and is predicated by the history below. Background In November 2024, the City conducted a community-wide survey regarding short-term rentals (STRs). A total of 426 responses were received. More than 20% of respondents reported that they either knew of or suspected STR activity within their neighborhood. Many respondents also identified nuisances associated with STRs and expressed support for the adoption of regulations to address these concerns. As staff began researching and drafting regulations in 2025, it became evident that— beyond registration requirements and basic community protection standards—zoning restrictions were necessary to preserve the character and fabric of single-family residential neighborhoods. This approach reflects the City's responsibility to balance property rights with the long-term livability and stability of residential areas. "I"wFt hJOKTH KIC:HLAND HILLS The following outreach and policy development efforts were undertaken leading up to the draft regulations now under consideration: • City Council Discussions (all publicly noticed and available live or as recordings on the City's website): o March 3, 2025 o May 27, 2025 o June 9, 2025 o June 23, 2025 o August 25, 2025 • Community Engagement: o Town Hall Meeting on July 15, 2025, including a community survey. o Focus group with STR operators on August 20, 2025. o Workshop with the Planning & Zoning Commission on August 21, 2025. o Numerous individual discussions with STR operators, local residents, HOA representatives, and staff from peer cities. In addition, complaints submitted at the Town Hall and through subsequent correspondence were geographically mapped to evaluate potential concentration of impacts. While certain areas experienced a higher volume of concerns, the results clearly demonstrated that STR-related impacts are widespread across single-family neighborhoods throughout the City. This further reinforced the need for a regulatory framework designed not only to mitigate nuisances, but also to safeguard the stability and character of residential zones for the benefit of the broader community. Proposal Consistent with that feedback, the draft ordinance not only adds in short-term rentals as a listed use in the Permitted Table of Uses, but also limits this new use to specific zoning districts where it is deemed to fit in with other uses. Section 118-1 — "Definitions" would be amended to include the following- Short-term rental (STR) means a dwelling that is: (1) Used or designated to be used for residential purposes, including a single-family residence or a unit in a multi-family residential building; (2) Rented wholly or partly for a fee; and (3) Rented for periods of less than 30 consecutive days. "I"wFt h^JOKTH KIC:HLAND HILLS As shown in the graphic below, short-term rentals would be permitted in the following districts: R7-MF, C-1, C-2, Town Center Neighborhood Core, and Town Center Neighborhood Center. =ON 118-631:TABLEOFPI3WITTIDUS S [#]=Conditions.FbferenceSection 118633for specific conditions to listed uses.

The conditions column (31) references additional land use regulations, including a reference to a requirement that short-term rentals comply with other new short-term rental regulations in Chapter 18. For multi-family short-term rentals, complexes must have at least fifty (50) units, and STRs can occupy no more than five percent (5%) of the total units in the complex. Along with the proposed zoning ordinance amendment, the City Council is simultaneously considering the aforementioned amendment to Chapter 18. Businesses, Article XII. Rental Housing, to add a new Division 3 which would provide for a registration requirement and other regulations related to short-term rentals. The regulations outlined in Chapter 18 are generally consistent with previous discussions on the topic, including annual registration and inspections, compliance with maximum occupancies, establishing parking requirements, reinforcing compliance with hotel occupancy tax payments, provision of a local point of contact, and other general neighborhood/community protections. Finally, it is important to note that this ordinance does allow a provision by which anyone currently operating a short-term rental in North Richland Hills may have a pathway to remain in operation. In order to be eligible for this continuation, a property must have registered with the City as paying hotel occupancy taxes, and must register with the city and conduct all necessary inspections and other compliance with these ordinances. The new regulations will allow for the City to more closely monitor any such properties for violations, and in instances where there have been multiple violations, the City reserves the right to revoke a registration. "I"wFt hJOKTH KIC:HLAND HILLS Public Comment: A separate file will be sent with public comments received since the July 15, 2025 STIR Town Hall. Any additional received between 8/27/25 and the time of the meeting will be provided to you at the meeting. CITY COUNCIL: The City Council will consider this request at the September 8, 2025 meeting following a recommendation by the Planning and Zoning Commission. The City Council will also consider ordinances at the September 8, 2025 meeting related to the referenced Chapter 18 short-term rental registration requirements and regulations, as well as an ordinance amending the master fee schedule to include an annual registration fee for short-term rentals. A copy of the Chapter 18 ordinance amendment is also included for reference.

This 0.371-acre property is located at 6920 Smithfield Road. GENERAL DESCRIPTION: The property under consideration is a 16,160-square-foot site located on the east side of Smithfield Road between Odell Street and Turner Drive. The site is developed with a single-family residence. The proposed final plat is intended to create one single-family residential lot for the purpose of constructing a new single-family residence. The property is uplatted and zoned R-3 (Single- Family Residential). While the property meets the minimum lot area and lot depth standards for the district, the property does not meet the minimum lot width requirement. The minimum �t lot width in the R-3 (Single-Family Residential) district is 70 feet- the lot has a width of 60.51 M, feet. According to available records, the property has been in its current configuration since at least 1952 when the house was m -- constructed. Due to this existing condition, the applicant is requesting a waiver of the lot width standard for the proposed lot. Section 110-42 of the subdivision regulations allows for the Planning and Zoning Commission to consider and approve modifications, waivers, and exceptions to the regulations where hardships or practical difficulties may result from strict compliance with the regulations. NORTH RICHLAND HILLS LAND USE PLAN: This area is designated on the Land Use Plan as Low Density Residential. This designation promotes quality neighborhoods of conventional suburban single-family detached homes. General characteristics of these neighborhoods include a density of two to six dwelling units per acre and houses of one- and two-stories. CURRENT ZONING: The property is zoned R-3 (Single-Family Residential). The R-3 district is intended to be a transitional zone between developments of lower and higher densities or between lower density residential and nonresidential areas and to provide areas for moderate density development of single-family detached dwelling units constructed at an approximate density of 4.8 units per acre. TRANSPORTATION PLAN: The development has frontage on the following streets. Right-of-way dedication may be required for this plat depending on the width of the existing right-of-way.
