2025 Municipal Candidate Survey Results
Local elections matter—especially when it comes to STR regulations that impact your property, your income, and your guests. That’s why the Poconos VRO reached out to municipal candidates across the region to ask where they stand on STR policy and community collaboration. We’re sharing their responses here so you can be informed at the ballot box. These are not endorsements—just visibility, clarity, and transparency for our STR community.
