Trail city council has given its blessing to turn three homes into short-term rentals.
Zoning amendments were approved this week for 1584 Diamond Street, 112 Rossland Avenue, and 710 Spokane Street.
Council was told that notifications were sent to neighbours of each property, but city staff received no feedback on any of the applications.
During a public hearing Monday, one neighbour brought up a parking concern about the Diamond Street property, but he was told it was unrelated to the zoning amendment and could be dealt with separately.
The owner of the Diamond Street property explained that she works in forestry and is away for about half the year. She said she would be open to renting the home to someone for the entire period she is absent, but thought short-term rentals would be a better option.
