San Francisco's Board of Supervisors will vote Tuesday on proposed regulations for room-rental sites like Airbnb. The legislation, written by Supervisor David Chiu, would legalize short-term rentals and limit who is allowed to list apartments online, and for how long. A wide coalition of residents worried about rising housing prices and the lack of available rental units is asking for further limitations.

Guests:

David Chiu, president of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors representing District 3

Dale Carlson, spokesperson for a coalition working to amend Supervisor Chiu's legislation regulating Airbnb and sponsor of a proposed San Francisco ballot measure to regulate Airbnb
