Poncha Springs Increases Short Term Rental Fees, Closes Dump

During their regular meeting this week, Poncha Springs Trustees approved a measure to increase the annual licensing fee for short-term rentals.  Trustees increased the annual fee to $1,000 for a new license, up from $125, and $500 for a renewal.  The old fee for a renewal was $75.

Poncha Springs Trustees also voted to close the town dump.  At issue is the dumping of illegal items like electronics and target shooting that is taking place.  A No Shooting sign will be posted in the area.

Trustees also voted to move board meetings to the fourth Tuesday of each month.
