Co-owner of local chainlet the Skinny Pancake, closed his Stowe location because he couldn’t adequately staff it. "About 1,000 residential units — a quarter of all the homes in town — are vacation rentals" 80% were owned by people who live outside of Stowe. sevendaysvt.com/news/housing…

Unwanted pest of an STR next door thrives while we residents suffer. Imagine how bad it’s been for Airbnb to ban it albeit temporarily. It needs to be shut down, who can we call?@cityofchandler @Matt4Chandler #homesnothotels

They do, but not for that reason. What makes you entitled to disturb neighbors after 10pm? Go to a nightclub if you want to party.

This “anti-party technology” doesn’t seem to work, as evidenced by Memorial Day weekend which was a busy weekend for shootings at @Airbnb parties, but if it did, shouldn’t they always use it? Airbnb parties are an ongoing issue, not just something that happens on holidays.

STRs are essentially hotels, only without the staff, security & safety features of hotels. STR operators aren’t required to have the same pool safety measures as hotels like latched fences around pools. The results, as in this case, can be tragic. 😔 3/3
