SINGAPORE: The Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) is seeking public feedback on a proposed regulatory framework for the use of private residential properties as short-term accommodation.
In a press release on Monday (Apr 16), URA said the framework was developed after its public consultation exercise in 2015 to better understand views on using private residential properties for short-term accommodation.
"Following a review of the feedback received, URA has worked with relevant agencies to develop a framework to regulate the use of private residential properties for short-term accommodation."
Detailing the proposed framework, URA said it includes "qualifying criteria for homes to be used as short-term accommodation; requirements and conditions which homeowners who use their properties for short-term accommodation must comply with; and the roles and responsibilities of stakeholders such as Management Corporations (MCSTs) and short-term accommodation platforms in ensuring that these activities are conducted in accordance with the proposed rules".
The public can share their views on the proposed framework on URA's website until May 31, 2018.
