Maybe convincing each of the counties to ban short term rentals (under 30 days) might be a better approach.

Like it or not, each village falls under the guidelines of an HOA. Fees are collected for maintenance, rules are written to follow and nonresidents are restricted. Any judge or lawyer in a courtroom would laugh away a defense that said otherwise.
One could argue that a resident does have more skin in the game than a fly by night renter though, both monetarily and in physical upgrades to the neighborhood.
