Housing is on the ballot this November in Telluride in the form of two ballot question. Question 300 asks voters if they want to reduce Short Term Rental licenses in town to 400, with some exceptions, and distribute those licenses through an annual lottery. Question 2D asks if they want to cap short term rental licenses where they are for two years and double short term rental business license fees to help pay for affordable housing. The two questions are separate and both could pass or not. With ballots sent out and a little less than three weeks till Election Day, KOTO hit the streets to find eligible Telluride voters and see how they’re thinking about the two questions.
