Why it will cost $2,041 for Grand Rapids homeowners to rent nightly, short-term rooms

Why it will cost $2,041 for Grand Rapids homeowners to rent nightly, short-term rooms | MLive.com:
"Grand Rapids City Commission on Tuesday, Oct. 8, added a clause to the city code that states “no person shall advertise any portion of a dwelling unit or rental by the night or by the week unless that person shall have first obtained a home occupation license.”

To get the license, it’s an annual fee of $291. 
To be eligible for the license, a special land use permit is needed and there's a one-time $1,750 fee for that."
