Preserve Property Rights and Vacation Rentals in Alta Sierra

The Issue

The community of Alta Sierra currently offers short term vacation rentals as an alternative to other accommodations in the broader geographic area.  There is currently pressure being put on the Kern County Board of Supervisor and Zoning / Planning teams to eliminate and/or restrict vacation rentals.  Not only is this an infringement on personal property rights, it will take away a key resource for families and other groups to enjoy the area.  There are no longer campsites available in the mountain area, and there are no hotels immediately in this area of the Greenhorn Mountains.  This online petition is to enable you to help send a message to Kern County officials to preserve access to vacation rentals in Alta Sierra.
