He threatend myself and my property and was difficult to remove once he was in the house. His activities included simple noise nuisance, to complete and utter disregard for those living near by having hybred wolves thast were not allowed on my property in the first place and would bot get rid of them. I could go on and on. I did finally get him out,but how intersting that NONE of my short term rentals have been a trouble but the community has voted to allow long term and abolish short term. How many of those folks ever thought about how a long term troublesome renter can affect their life, and a nightlyrenter, should they disregard the contract they have signed that penallizes them financially for bothersome behavior, will be gone immediately by making a phone call. That money taken from guests who cause a disturbance, was offered to the community. Of course they didn't jump on this b/c they know that the fact is, the incidences are so low, that account would yield very little. This was a very short sighted decision that was looked at by one sde only, as our board, very deliberately, did not seek to educate the members about all sides, as our offers to manage the situation on a trial basis, with strict guidelines and consequences, to find out if rental and non- rentals could coexist peacefully if managed properly, was not put out to the community for review prior to the vote,. The board did tell me they would send this if it were presented to them, as they would thier side, and they would pay for it. They did neither and squashed our proposal not allowing the membership to see this option. WE WILL ALL PAY THE PRICE FOR THEIR ACTIONS. But we will do as was voted on and will turn to full time rentals. Time will tell.
