Association Principles

  • Allow part-time residents to rent their homes when they are not using them via STRs

  • Discourage investors with no ties to the community from buying up housing stock for STRs

  • Provide incremental revenue to Woodstock to support community needs such as affordable housing efforts

  • Cover costs and minimize administrative burden on Woodstock town employees

  • Support local Woodstock businesses, services and tradespeople

  • Be consistent over time to enable property owners to plan long-term 

  • Establish STR permitting processes that are transparent and applied fairly

  • Regulate STRs for the safety of guests and to avoid negative impact on neighbors (noise, trash, etc.)
