Short-term rental coordinator granted comp time after two months of excess hours; ordinance status clarified
Summary
Short-Term Rental Coordinator Andy Dahlstrom reported 100 hours worked in May and 105 hours in June (both above his part-time schedule) and the Selectboard approved converting the extra hours into two weeks of time off; Town Attorney Bob Fisher confirmed the Short-Term Rental Ordinance adoption date is April 1 and advised on compliance options.
Andy Dahlstrom, Londonderry's Short-Term Rental Coordinator (a 20-hours-per-week position), reported working 100 hours in May and 105 hours in June and requested to apply the excess time toward two weeks of time off. The Selectboard approved his request and asked him to coordinate the timing with staff and set an out-of-office responder on his email.
Dahlstrom also reported he expects more inquiries now that the Short-Term Rental Ordinance amendments were reapproved. Town Attorney Bob Fisher confirmed the ordinance's April 1 adoption date is the effective date and suggested ways property owners can rent in ways that are not subject to the Short-Term Rental Ordinance; Dahlstrom said he has relayed that guidance to inquirers.
The minutes record board approval of the comp-time request and note the coordinator anticipates increased workload from the ordinance reapproval but do not detail specific enforcement actions or complaint numbers.
