Poll results: Readers weigh in on goals of proposed new transient accommodation rental regulations

67%, or 274 votes, selected one of seven of the benchmarks a three-bill package wants to meet or that it’s not just one of the goals that is most important but a combination of them that will make a difference with short-term rentals on the Big Island.

Proposed short-term rental rules on Big Island met with overwhelming opposition

More than 100 people submitted written testimony and dozens more turned out in person or via Zoom on Tuesday during a Hawai’i County Council committee meeting voicing concerns about a three-bill package aimed at ensuring all transient accommodation rentals on the island are operating safely, legally and under the same set of standards.
