Public hearing tomorrow on short-term housing

The public has a chance to weigh in on a plan to regulate short-term rentals advertised on Airbnb and other websites in Boston.

The City Council is holding a hearing tomorrow at City Hall on Mayor Martin J. Walsh’s proposed ordinance to track and regulate the rentals of bedrooms, apartments or entire houses for days or weeks at a time to visitors and tourists.

Walsh said his plan will deter landlords from converting too many housing units into short-term rentals.
