Challenging to Investors
Lake Norden lacks an explicit STR category; whole‑unit rentals must fit into Bed & Breakfast (Conditional Use in R1) or Hotel/Motel (permitted in commercial districts), requiring permits, plan reviews, possible variances and floodplain certifications, with strict penalties for violations. The legal pathway is workable but constrained by conditional use process, screening/dimensional standards, and the need for multiple approvals.
