The City of Saratoga Springs hosted a public forum this week on regulating short-term rentals.

Wednesday’s workshop at the Saratoga Springs City Center followed two similar public workshops in the fall.

Saratoga Springs, known for its busy summer tourism season, is also experiencing a shortage of single-family homes and sky-high rental costs.

To learn more about what was discussed and how online short-term rental services have impacted the Spa City, WAMC's Lucas Willard spoke with Saratoga Springs Commissioner of Accounts Dillon Moran.
