Reader says kudos to the Mayor for Actions on AirBnB

Susan

While I have zero interest in letting anyone rent my home, I have enjoyed AirBnB in cities around the world. They are terrific. As for Ridgewood, I seriously doubt our location would attract many tourist types. More likely visitors with work or other commitments in the immediate area. I guess I am too busy with my own life to watch who is parking in someone else’s driveway and in any case I know most of my neighbors well enough to trust their judgment on this, It seems a balanced approach with some regulation is the right response. So kudos to the Mayor for recognizing some compromise may be appropriate.

Another reader says its more generational than ideological but its always easy to blame it on the left when you’re devoid of facts… bottom line is the state will step in, towns will adjust by licensing, taxation and limits… as our council tends to be ahead of the curve I think this will incrementally change over the next few months…. for the better

  1. Very well written and exactly where this is going to go. I have my listing up and it’s been there long before this all started. I alerted my attorney and have been waiting patiently for a visit from PD, code whom ever but no one ever showed up. And they won’t.

  2. What is your address?
