Challenging to Investors
STRs are explicitly allowed but constrained by a 2% cap (also 2% within the McKinleyville plan area) and strict coastal rules (one STR per parcel, 10% street concentration, private gatherings prohibited). The two‑year permitting and renewal process, along with health/safety, Good Neighbor, noise/parking standards, create compliance and enforcement risk that dampens investor friendliness.
