Raleigh Council Kicks Airbnb Back To Commission

RALEIGH — A months-long discussion over legalizing Airbnb in Raleigh will continue, as City Council members Kay Crowder and John Odom objected to rules proposed to allow the service, moving the debate back to the city's Planning Commission. Crowder and Odom say the rules aren't precise enough and Crowder said legalizing Airbnb would reduce the city's supply of affordable housing.
