Generally Investor friendly
STRs are not explicitly defined by city policy, but investors can typically proceed through zoning verification, a business license, rental registration, fire/life safety checks, and state Transient Guest Tax and sales tax—indicating moderate, manageable steps rather than outright prohibition or heavy caps. The biggest risk is the lack of a clear, published STR ordinance, making upfront confirmation with Community Development and the City Clerk essential.
