What the Moratorium Means for Owners

• 🏠 Loss of operating rights: Even fully compliant hosts were included in the ban, unable to rent legally overnight.

• 💰 Financial impact: Many owners depend on seasonal rentals to cover mortgages, maintenance, or property tax — income that disappeared instantly.

• ⚖️ Unfair grouping: The same small number of complaints was used to restrict every home on the street, regardless of record or behavior.

• 📄 No clear appeals process: Owners were not given individual notice, nor a defined path to request review or reinstatement.

Why This Matters Beyond Rue Prévillé?

When one street can lose its rental rights because of a few duplicate complaints, it sets a precedent that could spread across Saint-Alphonse-Rodriguez — or to any other town in Quebec.

This uncertainty discourages good hosts from investing in maintenance, local services, and guest experiences — weakening the very tourism base that helps our community thrive.

What Responsible Owners Support?

Responsible STR owners aren’t asking for special treatment — just fair, balanced rules applied equally to everyone.
They support:

• Licensing and registration for transparency

• Clear noise and parking standards

• Penalties for repeat offenders

• A 24/7 contact number for neighbors and the city

• Annual reviews instead of sudden, sweeping bans

You’ve invested in your property and your community. Fair regulation should protect that — not punish it.
Learn how to make your voice heard and help shape balanced, responsible rules that work for everyone in Saint-Alphonse-Rodriguez.
