Marion Regulations

Marion treats STRs under NAICS lodging categories, so STRs are permissible primarily as hotels/motels in limited commercial zones; residential districts generally prohibit lodging uses and require conditional-use B&B approval in select areas. There is no dedicated city STR permit/license program, forcing investors to navigate zoning approvals, building/fire inspections, business licensing, and state/local tax registrations without a clear, streamlined STR pathway. The uncertainty around use eligibility and compliance steps raises investor risk despite the absence of hard caps and an overall neutral tone.
