A Clinton city commissioner believes it is time for the city to start taking action on Airbnbs.

At the Clinton City Council's Tuesday night meeting, Commissioner of Public Property John Wise indicated last weekend several commissioners attended the annual Illinois Municipal League conference in Chicago. He attended a seminar on Airbnbs and believes it is time for the city to finally discuss them.

Wise said the keynote speaker for the session was from the City of Aurora. He said the speaker walked through what Aurora's ordinances look like and how best to prevent Airbnbs from becoming party houses.

Commissioner of Streets and Public Improvements Ken Buchanan reminded with the opening of the Haunted House this weekend, keep in mind parts of Washington Street will be closed. Also, he gave an update on the Madison Street project.

Also at Tuesday night's meeting, the Council approved the purchase of two computers for City Hall. They placed on file the purchase of Motorola mobile radios and a new postage machine.
