HB 2271 (Marshall) and SB 1391 (Lewis), which exempt short-term rental property managed by a Virginia realtor from any short-term rental ordinance, were laid on the table in their respective committees at the request of the bill patrons. Both the Senate Local Government Committee and the House Counties, Cities and Towns Committee also requested that the Virginia Housing Commission study the issue prior to the 2024 legislative session. VACo opposed the bills and will participate in the Housing Commission study.
