Eau Claire is going to require licenses for Airbnb’s and VRBO rentals.
The city council last night approved a new license plan. The idea, supporters say, is to differentiate between traditional bed-and-breakfasts, and short term rentals like Airbnb’s and VRBO rentals. The council, however, did not approve new rules that would have required week-long stays, or that would have limited local Airbnb and VRBO rentals to just six months out of the year.
