Lower Towamensing Township continues to do its due diligence concerning the number of short-term rentals in its municipality.

Code enforcement officer Brent Green told supervisors on Tuesday he will eventually give them a list of all addresses so that they’ll have it for tracking purposes.

Resident Steve Meining said as the township’s zoning code officer he thought it was Green’s job to finish the process through to home plate.

“I’m just glad to see things are moving ahead,” Meining said.

In April, Green said 15 short-term rentals were listed in the township.

Meining previously asked if there was any way to develop a simple spreadsheet that would track the status of short-term rentals.

However, township solicitor Jim Nanovic suggested to Green that he not go that route.

Meining has said his long-term goal is to keep the township under control.

Green previously noted that the township has been trying to keep short-term rentals in the dense population areas of the township.

Green said the intent was to have notice to all adjoining property owners, and added the township was one of the first to come up with regulations.

Nanovic told Green he should be implementing it that way now.

In February, Meining expressed frustration with what he perceived to be a lack of progress on rules for short-term rentals.

The township has been working on an applications procedures list, with a possible amendment to the ordinance to include life safety inspection items.

Meining, who routinely checks on the status of the enforcement of the township’s short-term rental ordinance, said it’s important to keep after the property owners to hold them accountable.

Since the majority of the property owners aren’t local, Green previously said issuing a notice of violation and sending them to the magistrate would be difficult.
