The city council of Orinda, California may implement a ban on short-term property rentals, after a shooting at a Halloween party at an Airbnb-rented property that killed five. The CEO of Airbnb also announced a ban on “party houses” due to the incident.
The Orinda city council made the topic the central focus of discussion at a meeting on Nov. 5, with public testimony and a report on the city’s options.
