Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Section 11 of Nahant's Short-Term Rental Rules and Regulations, operators of short-term rentals are generally expected to budget for and pay multiple fees at different stages of the licensing process, from initial application through final certificates of compliance. Compliant operators typically obtain the current Town Fee Schedule from the town clerk's office before submitting any applications, since the specific dollar amounts for each required fee are set there rather than in the regulation itself. Keeping records of all fee payments and associated certificates—including those from the Fire Department, Board of Health, and Office of Inspectional Services—is a common practice among operators seeking to demonstrate ongoing compliance.

Tenants or neighbors who want to verify that a short-term rental is properly registered and has met all required inspections can check with the town clerk's office, where the Town Fee Schedule and related records are maintained.
