Officials in Brigantine, New Jersey are trying to balance vacationers who come to party with residents who have to get up for work the next day.
"You'd like, be woken up in the middle of the night and to the music, and the noise, out of a complete sleep," said Louise Groeber of Brigantine.
Residents say big shore homes going up on the 300 and 400 blocks of 20th Street in Brigantine have turned into party homes, disturbing their quality of life. "If you've seen the movie with John Belushi - Animal House - this is what we're dealing with," said Andrea Sullivan of Brigantine."In 2017 council actually passed a series of ordinances that we call the Animal House ordinance, that actually has short-term rental properties have to be licensed with the city.
Sera said the city is also looking at new construction of large homes that have the potential of turning into short-term rentals. He's also looking into minimum stays for short-term rentals, but no new legislation is out yet.Nearby shore towns like Ventor have recently added minimums on short-term rentals to cut down on party homes.Brigantine's next city council meeting is July 12 at 5 p.m. at City Hall.
