This was successfully done in Telluride.....

'bandit' owners unite!
The only part of vacay rentals by owners that I think is justifiable is that they should charge lodging tax and pay lodging tax. But. It should be a significantly discounted tax because private owners do not get the benefit of all the greased tourism industry back-slapping and cheap illegal labor force that big money brings in.
