Bill Summary

AN ACT ENTITLED: “AN ACT REVISING THE DEFINITION OF "TOURIST HOME"; AMING SECTION 50-51-102, MCA; AND PROVIDING AN IMMEDIATE EFFECTIVE DATE.”

AI Summary

This bill revises the definition of a "tourist home" in Montana's state law, specifically modifying Section 50-51-102. The key change is to clarify that a tourist home must be an entire private home or condominium that is never occupied by an owner or manager, and is rented or leased to transient guests (short-term travelers) on a daily or weekly basis. The previous definition was less specific, simply referring to "a" private home without the explicit requirement that it be unoccupied by the owner and rented in its entirety. The bill provides an immediate effective date, meaning it will go into effect as soon as it is passed and approved. This modification helps to more precisely define tourist homes for regulatory purposes, potentially impacting how such properties are classified and regulated in the context of lodging establishments in Montana.
