BAN SHORT TERM RENTALS IN HIGHLAND LAKES CC & CA, HIGHLAND LAKES, NJ

Continuing to protect our beautiful community and its members is always of importance. Enacting this regulation will help to do so.

I support a seven day minimum for property rentals.

I support a 7 day minimum for rentals in Highland Lakes

Short term rentals, especially through online services, have the potential to dramatically alter our quiet enjoyment of this community. Given how close most homes are to each other and the distance noise travels over the lakes it is only prudent to regulate rentals in this manner. I hope that Voting Board members place themselves in the shoes of their fellow members who live in the vicinity of properties used for this purpose and who put up with the nuisances these rentals all too often produce. It is a false equivalency to equate short-term, online rentals with past rental practices. Common sense tells us that transient lessees are less likely to have a connection or concern for the community we all love and enjoy.

I disagree with non-members using our facilities and disrespecting our neighborhoods

I disagree with non members utilizing our beaches and areas, while not agreeing to or knowledge of the rules, or respect for our community.

Let’s keep our community private and quiet. Short term rentals will take away from the beauty of HL.

Short term rentals are destroying the quality of life in our community.There are safety issues, noise and excess lighting .We are a private community, not in the hotel business!

I am in favor of this petition as written. Short term rentals impact the community jeopardizing the quality of life of our members.

I am in full favor of the terms of this petition. My wife and I owned a condominium in a building in a beach community that was being negatively impacted by short term rentals. To this end the Board of Trustees made a Bi Laws change to mandate no rental less than one year.

Highland Lakes deserves to maintain the security of our long-standing private community

Less than 2 days and we have over 60 signatures! In the middle of the winter! Keep it going, forward to friends and neighbors

Feel very strongly about this.

I am completely opposed to short term rentals less than 7 days.

As a so called "seasonal or summer resident" of over 50 years, 100% behind this.

We Are a close knit private lake community not a Resort

I agree!

Good idea to help protect our PRIVATE COMMUNITY!

Air bnb is a liability issue and disrupts our beautiful community. Especially if you are on the big lake. Llc’s are buying properties in HL just to Air bnb. We don’t want our private community to become a hotel.

Short term rentals reduce the integrity and safety of this community and need to be addressed now.
