CONWAY — Selectmen are scheduled to discuss resurrecting their rental inspection program at their next two meetings, on Tuesday, Jan. 21, and Tuesday, Jan. 28.
On April 9, town voters overwhelmingly passed a warrant article to allow the inspection and regulation of long- and short-term rentals. This is in Chapter 72 of the town's ordinances.
All existing STRs would be grandfathered. Which begs the question: "Why are they even bothering?"
They should count their losses, learn from them, and move on to more pressing matters, like perhaps allowing greater density in certain areas so as to provide more affordablle housing. Or how about reducing taxes by not continuously ending up in court for trying to ban STRs or diminishing private property rights? Gee...wouldn't that be nice.
