A shooting in Scottsdale at a short-term rental earlier this month has residents and elected officials doubling down on their opposition to Airbnb-style vacation rentals.
Mary Healey, who lives next door to where the shooting occurred, said the neighborhood’s short-term rentals are out of hand. There is often loud partying at the property, she said, but the shooting was a next-level disruption.
“That bullet could have been through the garage, and through my bedroom, and in my head,” she said. “It’s pretty scary.”
