Short-Term Rentals: Rules & Tax
What Stowe requires to register a short-term rental — the $100 fee, the April 30 renewal, the fire-department lock box and 45-minute rule — plus an estimate of the 10% lodging tax to add to a booking.
Where to Go for Care
Which place still does what — the emergency room in Morrisville, walk-in care, the pharmacy on Mountain Road, and where you now have to drive to have a baby — with the miles and minutes for each.
Transfer Station: Hours & What Goes Where
Whether the Dump Road transfer station is open right now (it's closed Tuesdays), and what Vermont law says you must sort out of the trash — recycling, food scraps and yard waste.
Getting Up the Mountain
How bad the crawl up Mountain Road will be, and the smart way to beat it — work out your parking (free after 2 p.m. or with a full car), or park free and ride the shuttle.
Estimate Your Property Tax
Put in your assessed value to estimate the yearly bill — school and town, with the 2024 reappraisal and the CLA explained.
Appeal Your Assessment: Deadlines
Enter the date on your assessment decision and see exactly when you must appeal by — the 14-day Board of Civil Authority window and the 30-day state appeal — plus how the whole grievance process works and who to file with.
Who to Call
The local numbers Stowe residents need — emergencies, where to give birth now, utilities, trash, town.
