Is the problem the short term renter status or is the problem the blocking of the driveway? If it's the former then let's get rid of the renters but if it's the latter then let's stop others from blocking driveways regardless of their reason for being here.
Take the rest of the alleged transgressions and fit them into the above paragraph. My answer is the same - the transgressions are transgressions regardless of the status of the person committing them.
I am skeptical of the widespread problems from renters. I've seen some pretty large numbers of rental properties claimed. If thousands of renters are causing problems there would be more than a few people complaining here on ToTV. I believe some renters do cause issues. I believe some fulltime neighbors cause issues. I know some snowbirds cause issues. Personally, getting rid of the snowbirds would improve my life much more than getting rid of the renters - who do I talk to about that?

I highly doubt the lawmakers in NYC and in other areas around the world (yes, WORLD) were concerned about driveway traffic when they wrote new laws that limit STRs. At this point, It is you against the world. I wonder who is going to win.
