Offering suggestions: Airbnb is offering a resource for governments to consider as they draft or amend these rules.

SAN FRANCISCO: In a moment of peace-making with regulators, Airbnb on Wednesday released a set of policy suggestions for governments that are considering new laws for home- and apartment-renting.

The document, which comes on the heels of concessions with cities including New York City, offers suggestions for collecting lodging taxes from Airbnb hosts, strategies to allow residents to rent their home without offending neighbours, suggestions on limiting the number of nights a home can be rented and setting up a permitting system.
