Subject: CAUTION: New law in Kauai regarding vacation rental
Aloha to our fellow Kauai residents & property owners.
As some of you are aware and many more unaware the Kauai County Council is moving forward with a Bill (No. 2204) which will make most vacation cottages, vacation rentals and B&Bs on Kauai illegal. This Bill may be passed as soon as March 21st to the 28th, 2007 - within less than 2 weeks. In it's latest version it appears the Bill would only provide for grandfathering in of vacation rental and B&B businesses that have existed since 1982.
25% of Kauai's accommodation choices are alternative lodging options, and if you see the stats, many visitors make these choices because they prefer vacation cottages, homes and B&B to large hotels and resort complexes. The B&B, vacation home & cottages market on Kauai supports many local families & businesses with income - think of all the housekeepers, gardeners, window cleaners, and local stores that supplies are being purchased from etc. The effect of this Bill on our local economy could be vast!
Up until now, every vacation rental and B&B owner stood by himself trying to defend their livelihood - BUT NOW WE HAVE JOINED TOGETHER as a group so that the voices of the many will be heard more loudly and clearly.
If you are a property owner on Kauai who depends in part, or solely on income generated by your vacation rental or B&B you must join us now before it's too late: we have less than 2 weeks to mobilize. Check the website below and call the Kauai County Council to make your voice heard. Sign the following Petition to the Kauai County Council

and tell everyone you know.
If you are a resident who works as a cleaner, housekeeper, window washer, gardener, realtor, painter, landscaper, repair men, furniture store, local restaurant, local hardware store, cleaning supply store, or in any other job related to vacation rental on Kauai you must also join us to prevent potential loss of income to you and your family.
