People that live in the valley year-round shouldn’t be penalized because of the short-term rental Airbnb situation. That is the most absurd thing I’ve ever heard. The town should be getting plenty of money from all those Airbnbs that have taken over this area and reduced actual housing for your workforce that lives here year-round. That is just not right. Something doesn’t add up. Something sounds seriously wrong that many people’s taxes went up. The town needs to explain this. This is exactly why you should be charging these Airbnbs money for their short-term rentals to supplement those that live here year-round. This is the problem, people. When are you going to wake up? Now you can see that this is causing issues for everyone, not just the workforce, but people that actually own homes and live here year-round. This is the most disgusting thing I’ve read in the paper in a long time. Shame on the town. And while they’re at it, where did all the money go for the decorations? Have you seen that the park’s got one tree half-lit in the village? It looks horrible. Where does everybody’s money go?
