Background
In 2014 the Town of North Elba updated the Comprehensive Plan which called for regulating short term rentals. Several public forums and hearings were hosted by the Town to gather public input about the proposed STR regulations. In March of 2020, the proposed regulations were adopted by the Town of North Elba and the Village of Lake Placid. These initial regulations
Since then, the Town and Village have been closely monitoring the impact of the regulations and gathering public input. To help refine the current STR regulations, the Land Use Code sub-committee of the Development Commission has worked over the last year to gather ideas for possible updates to the regulations.
Once these activities are completed, the Development Commission would summarize public input and present to the Town and Village Boards. From there, the Boards would draft the changes to the regulations and adopt those supported by Board members via the legislative process.
