LORAIN, Ohio — In the decade since Sandy Campana first began noticing an influx of short-term visitors to her quiet Lakeside Avenue neighborhood, she has been growing increasingly irritated by what she’s seen.

“It’s very hard to get out when you have a car parked there,” she said, pointing to the street across from her driveway. “Boats are parking on the steet, parties.” In late 2023, the city council amended the city code to include new regulations. The changes now require short-term rental property owners to register with the city, obtain a conditional use permit, pay a 3% bed tax and provide 1.25 off-street parking spaces per guest room.

“Of course there were some property owners who thought it went too far. And you’re never going to make everybody happy. So you really want to go and strike a happy medium,” Springowski said.
