Opinion: New Haven's Short-Term Rental Rules Get The Design Right

Airbnb researcher Murray Cox supports New Haven’s proposed short-term rental rules, which would prohibit rentals of 30 days or less in homes that are not occupied by their owners or residents. The proposal would preserve room-sharing in residents’ homes. Cox says Inside Airbnb counted 784 listings in the city, including 764 short-term rentals, and argues the rules could help protect housing for residents. City alders are expected to vote on the ordinance.
