Berrian Eno-Van Fleet, the city's short-term rental administrator, read through several pages of evidence and complaints from neighbors near the home at 923 Orleans Ave., dating back to June 2017. A letter received earlier this month described the property as a "horrifying STR with abusive guests."
The city learned the property was listed on the websites VRBO and FlipKey, even though it did not have a short-term rental permit. Lauren Griffin, a local attorney representing the Oklahoma ownership group, War Eagle LLC, said the home hasn't been used as a short-term rental. She insisted that the owners' family and friends have been staying there but could provide no proof of her claim.
War Eagle LLC was fined $3,000 for similar violations last year. Griffin, who said that ruling is under appeal, argued that the complaints submitted to the city were "hearsay," although Eno-Van Fleet said such comments are permissible in the adjudication process.
"Your argument has to be something more than 'nuh uh,'" she told Griffin.
Can't believe Auburn fans are running something "horrifying"
