Charles City Regulations
STRs are explicitly allowed citywide, with no stated caps, and investors follow standard business licensing, hotel/motel tax registration, and general property/zoning rules. The process involves moderate permitting (general business license, hotel/motel tax, zoning verification) and routine inspections, but the lack of a dedicated STR ordinance creates some compliance uncertainty that investors can manage.
