Florida Governor to Counties: Submit a plan for short-term rentals

Must read

Today Florida Governor Ron DeSantis announced, beginning Monday, the state would move into a “full Phase One,” and short-term rentals can reopen if counties submit a plan for opening safely. DeSantis added, “If your plan says you’re going to accept guests from New York City, I’m probably not going to accept that.”

Throughout Florida’s shutdown, DeSantis has kept timeshares, resorts, hotels, motels, and inns open. He gave his reason for that today saying that he needed to have places to “put up” national guard if needed. 

DeSantis’ message to counties: “For the vacation rentals, what we’re doing is telling counties, if you want short-term rentals—if you want them to be open—you submit your plan and you can show how they are going to be safe.”

Bars and movie theaters also remain closed, but like vacation rentals, amusement parks can submit plans to the state show they plan to reopen safely. 

In addition, DeSantis further opened restaurants and retail, effective Monday to 50 percent.

  1. Only Fuhrer DeSantis knows for sure! Hoping the courts will throw out all his decrees and there will be an investigation launched into his conduct.

  2. Mr. DeSantis, You clearly have forgotten how you got into office…by a very slim margin. I am not the only one that regrets supporting you and with the number of people you have offended and mistreated via your STR decree, you seem intent to be a one term Gov. Hey, just wondering, did the hotels and resorts contribute enough to you to be allowed to house people from NY or are you just intent on doing everything you can to screw STR owners and make this as unpleasant as possible for them? Don’t worry Ronnie, the class action lawsuits are coming for you and you will be humiliated nationwide! IMPEACH DESANTIS!
