17 Business Items Revised Rules for Use of GH-CP Sanitary District Facilities Bill Spencer, VP Operations August 25, 2018 General Membership Meeting

18 Revised Rules for Use of GH-CP Sanitary District Facilities
We asked the County: Would it be permissible for residents to lease their access rights to SD facilities separate from leasing their lot? In other words, could a homeowner lease their access rights without leasing their home or property? The County’s response is reflected in the draft rules: The Right to Lease: Owners may lease their properties “Access rights run with the property and cannot be separated from the property” If a property is leased, access rights go to the lessee Access rights cannot by themselves be transferred Exception: Short-Term Rentals (e.g., Air BnB) of less than 30 days are permitted. Lessee can use access rights of property owner for rental period. August 25, 2018 General Membership Meeting
