Short-term rental ordinance enforcement
Summary
Neighbors say a short-term rental on West 42nd Street has operated like a year-round party house, far exceeding the ordinance's 60-day limit, with no real mechanism to track stays. Residents are demanding stronger enforcement, a stop-order option, and fixes to the self-reported compliance system.
