Arizona lawmakers are considering a bill that would place restrictions on short-term rentals like Airbnb or Vrbo. A small group of supporters gathered at the Capitol Tuesday ahead of a House Commerce Committee hearing on the bill. SB 1379 is sponsored by Republican Senator J.D. Mesnard, and it would impose hefty fines on property owners if their guests disturb neighbors or create problems. That includes noise and traffic violations or nuisance issues. Cities already have ordinances for these issues, but Sen. Mesnard said this bill would go a step further. "It would empower cities to impose fines and even revoke the TPT license for a short-term rental," said Sen. Mesnard. They would have to be verified local or state violations. The first violation would result in a $500 fine or one night's rent, whichever is higher. The second violation would lead to a $1,000 fine or two night's rent. The third would be $3500 or three night's rent.
