Short-term rentals have become wildly popular throughout the United States as well as wildly destructive in many communities. The debate on the effects of short-term rentals is ongoing in cities and communities all over the country, and nowhere is this debate more apparent than in Kearsarge Village.
Kearsarge Lighting Precinct was established by an act of the state Legislature in 1958 and zoning was approved by residents with the intent of protecting the residential and agricultural character of the community.
