Challenging to Investors
Pittston lacks a dedicated STR ordinance, so legality hinges on zoning (often requiring a variance/conditional use). Licensing and approval path are unclear, while hotel taxes and safety obligations are standard and manageable; absent caps or city guidance, uncertainty around permits and enforcement pushes this to challenging.
