9/17/2020 - Short Term Rental Notice to Property Owners

Dear Jackson Taxpayer:

The Planning Board presented a warrant article to amend the Town’s Zoning Ordinance at the annual Town Meeting on March 12, 2020. This new Ordinance requires all Short-Term rental owners to register their property by submitting an application for a Conditional Use Permit.

The details of this Warrant Article can be found on pages 14 and 15 of the 2019 Annual Report: https://www.jackson-nh.org/board-selectmen.

The Conditional Use Permit Registration Form is available on the Town of Jackson website at https://www.jackson-nh.org/board-selectmen/pages/short-term-rentals.

Short-Term Rental owners must complete and submit this application immediately, or the Town will be forced to take enforcement action for operating a Short-Term rental in violation of the Town’s new Zoning Ordinance.

As a property owner, it is your responsibility to be aware of rules and ordinances in the Town. You can find current information at www.jackson-nh.org and also by subscribing to Jackson’s e-news by visiting the website https://www.jackson-nh.org/home/webforms/subscribe-e-news. In addition, you can contact the Jackson Town Office at 603-383-4223 with any questions.

We are committed to preserving the traditional character of residential neighborhoods in Jackson, to preserve the quality and quantity of housing stock for year-round residential use, and to ensure the safety of Short-Term Rental occupants.

Complaints

The Town has created a fillable Complaint Form which must be used for all complaints regarding the operation of a Short-Term Rental property. The Complaint Form can be found on the Town’s website at: https://www.jackson-nh.org/board-selectmen/pages/short-term-rentals.

We encourage you to aid our efforts by complying with this new ordinance.
