Saying this based on my 20+ years in taxation and 15+ years in software development prior to that.Well let me correct you on a few points:1) Haven't totally changed careers (at least not yet), at present I am primarily limited to addressing the US and foreign tax law consequences of cross border transfers of intellectual property in the context of merger and restructuring changes (mostly for Silicon Valley companies, but not exclusively).2) Never made the claim you suggest so you will need to take that straw man back to where you found it.3) Often during my time in the trenchs we had to come up with answers to questions pertaining to mere proposed legislation, and telling the client to wait a year until we figure it out was not an option.

Wow have ADUs taken off in CA recently, especially with the recent changes to legislation. 

I'd be crystal clear and certain that there will not be legislation passed to ban STRs.

This may not be illegal, but there is a police detective involved investigating what she calls "Mortgage Rescue Fraud," along with legislators aimed at shutting down these rescue scams.I am confident nobody here has any intentions of practicing these predatory habits, but we are all exposed to potential claims when dealing with the previous homeowners.

Doug Ducey said the legislation provides "financial breathing room'' for families by allowing them to earn something extra.

We have a problem in our legal system because legislators pass laws against specific substances and they have no authority to regulate newly created substances.

It's always find it difficult to send denial notices and I do as much as possible to get them approved, but I won't violate my preset standards for approval (which were set inside legislation).In my notices, I thank them and that I'm sorry their application didn't meet all the qualifications.

@Nate Marshall Colorado Landlord Legislative Coalition is great.

This is a perfect example of how bad initial legislation required MORE bad legislation to band-aid itself.
