Challenging to Investors
Short‑term rentals are explicitly allowed in Neighborhood zoning districts but require a conditional use permit, a city rental license, and a county lodging license, along with a pre‑rental inspection, routine inspections, record‑keeping, and compliance with occupancy limits and residential‑character standards. License fees are moderate (about $100–$120), but the multi‑step permitting and compliance process introduces friction. The presence of caps, layered approvals, and enforcement fines (e.g., $500 for operating without a license) makes the environment challenging for investors.
