In a statement to NBC Connecticut, Liz Burdick, Ledyard’s director of land use and planning, said in part, “This has prompted the Planning and Zoning Commission and the Mayor’s office to seek a common sense approach to short term rentals and ways to address them either by way of the Ledyard Zoning Regulations or by a Town Ordinance.”
Burdick researched how other towns and cities across the state and country handle short-term rentals and said ideas brought to the Planning and Zoning Commission Thursday will include letting the community self-regulate short-term rentals, writing simple zoning regulations or writing a town ordinance.
