Memorandum

DATE November 22, 2019 CITY OF DALLAS

TO Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council

SUBJECT Short-Term Rental Registration

“Our Product is Service” Empathy | Ethics | Excellence | Equity

Earlier this month, the City Controller’s Office (CCO) launched MUNIRevs, a new online portal for short-term rental (STR) owners to register their property and pay hotel occupancy taxes. To encourage registration, CCO is mailing letters to potential STR properties identified by our vendor.

As a reminder, a short-term rental is any residential property or part of a property rented for 30 days or less. This includes homes or other units, such as a garage apartment or backyard cottage, listed for rent on Airbnb, VRBO, HomeAway, and similar websites.

In addition to mailing letters, CCO and Public Affairs and Outreach are coordinating a 30-day social media campaign beginning today to let residents know they need to register their property, as well as provide tips for being a good neighbor. Examples of these materials are attached, and we are working with your staffs to provide the digital files if you wish to share this content through your own channels.

Please let me or City Controller Sheri Kowalski know if you have any questions.
