8. AirBnB. At the June 2016 meeting, the Board gave direction to work with the Tax
Collector to seek full payment of tourist development taxes by AirBnB customers in
a manner that does not conflict with or encourage violations of the County's
vacation rental ordinance. Included within that direction was to consult with
outside counsel to gauge the interest of other counties to join us in a suit against
AirBnB but also to negotiate with AirBnB to see if we can avoid litigation. Those
efforts are ongoing. Due to the sensitive nature of these efforts, Commissioners
are invited to contact the County Attorney for further details.
9. Code Compliance Lien Collection cases. Through the first eight months of
FY17 (10/1/16 to 5/31/17), code compliance and legal staff collected

collected during all of FY16. As the attached spreadsheet indicates, in prior years
