HomeMy WebLinkAbout033125 email - Opportunity to learn from Port Angeles experience with Short Term RentalsALERT: BE CAUTIOUS This email originated outside the organization. Do not open attachments or click on links if you are not expecting them.
I am the President of the Olympic Peninsula Lodging Alliance, a 501c6 non profit that advocated for reasonable STR regulations for Port Angeles. I am likely the most knowledgeable person
on the Port Angeles process and the ultimate decision from the City Council. As with any decision, there were pros and cons, and unfortunately a lot of misinformation too. I have an
80 page slide deck that analyzes STR impacts to everything from affordable housing to lodging/tourism/taxation. My group desired reasonable regulation from the very beginning. Unfortunately,
there were many mistakes made along the way and Port Angeles will suffer from some of those decisions starting in 2025. Let me know if you are interested in learning more. - Steven
