CONWAY ­— Conway Town Manager Tom Home has been an outspoken critic of short-term rentals. It was he who begged the town selectmen to go to court in a case that ended up going poorly.

Now, Home admits he’s actually planning to open an Airbnb himself. After residents voted to ban STRs, Home convinced selectmen to sue STR owner Ima Rudenick in a class action against the 1,000 or so STR owners in town. However, in January Judge Amy Schumer sided with the town (as she always does).
