The Power of Joining AZRT
What is the alliance doing for me?
AZRT is the unified voice representing responsible STRs to City Hall and our broader community. Our volunteer leadership, together with our partners, keep a close watch on what’s happening with the city and throughout the industry to keep you up-to-date on everything you need to know, advocate for you, and help you best advocate for yourself.
Where do my dollars go?
Membership dues cover the things volunteer hours can’t. A portion of them cover our operating expenses, such as website maintenance, accounting and software, and the remainder go toward specialized services, such as PR, lobbying and legal support.
