Challenging to Investors
Pittsfield Regulations
STRs are explicitly allowed, but licensing requires zoning site-plan review, multi-department inspections, a public hearing, and city registration—creating moderate complexity and cost. The 150-day annual cap and ownership limits (2 units with owner-occupied and distance conditions) are meaningful constraints, and enforcement combines zoning and licensing actions, increasing compliance burden for investors.
