Ayer, Mass., Code of Bylaws CH. 380 § 380-2 establishes that the town's hotel and motel licensing and operation rules apply to every owner and operator of such establishments within Ayer.

Plain English — not legal advice.
Under CH. 380 § 380-2, hotel and motel owners and operators in Ayer are generally expected to maintain compliance with these licensing and operation regulations while also adhering to any other applicable town bylaws or official orders. Compliant operators typically ensure a current copy of the regulations is posted in a visible, accessible location on the premises. Because § 380-2 makes clear these rules are additive, operators generally review all relevant local requirements rather than treating this chapter as their sole compliance obligation.
