​

Each year, the Northern Dutchess Alliance (NDA) hosts the leadership of our communities for thought provoking presentations, awards, networking and a regional conversation about the future of the northern Dutchess region.

 

This year the NDA is hosting a presentation by James Levy, principal from Planning4Places, who will share his findings, including the results from the NDA short-term Rental survey. Last year the Dutchess County Planning  Federation did a study which showed that there were at least 947 short-term rentals active in the county.
