CONCORD — A subcommittee of lawmakers Tuesday morning discussed a disorderly household bill filed by local state Rep. Ed Butler (D-Hart's Location). The bill would have implications for the short-term rental market and has Realtors concerned.
Short-term rentals have been an issue in town for years. They made the news recently when resident Ray Shakir came to the board of selectmen last week to urge the town to pursue regulations. He sited a number of problems that he attributes to short term rentals and they include congestion, noise, dogs, litter, lack of maintenance to houses and disrespect of lot lines.
