📰 News we're reading
• Pleasant Ridge continues discussing regulation of short-term rentals (candgnews.com) — Pleasant Ridge officials are weighing whether to tightly regulate or completely ban short‑term rentals like Airbnb and Vrbo, after a year of debate and resident feedback. A draft ordinance would cap licenses at 12, set strict occupancy and quiet hours, and impose fines, but commissioners have now asked staff to also explore an outright ban based on neighborhood character and enforcement concerns.
