Proponents of transient rentals in single family residential zones cite the increased tax base, which benefits everyone who uses public roads, recreational facilities, etc. But how do you regulate these transient occupancy facilities? Surely, owners could just rent via any number of online websites without obtaining the proper the documentation OR remitting taxes. Furthermore, when transients are excessively loud or leave garbage out for the bears (a serious problem in the mountains) who should the Town punish – the transients or the homeowners? I’m interested to hear your ideas on these issues.

Thanks again for reading!

There are laws against excessive noise and garbage! For goodness sake, address THOSE laws, dont stop transient rentals because only SOME transients are noisy – attack the noise problem head on – BUT allow transient renters who abide buy the LAW and this way EVERYONE WINS!!!!!!
