HANCOCK The City Council of Hancock passed an amendment to their zoning ordinance concerning a “housesitting” exemption and short term rentals at their regular Wednesday meeting. The vote was 6-1, with Councilor Ron Blau as the dissenting vote.
During public comment, one person raised concerns with the change in the language concerning short term rentals. While Councilor John Haeussler, who proposed the amendment, described the change as one reflecting the council’s original intention, the commenter felt it was different from how she had interpreted it.
