Generally Investor friendly
STRs are explicitly allowed citywide, with a simple $200 application fee, mandatory safety documentation, a required inspection, and an annual license (renewals free). Occupancy is capped at 10 with a transparent calculation (sleeping rooms + 2) and administrative variance for exceptions; 3+ unit buildings are under review but not yet prohibited. Fines ($250/day up to $5,000) and complaint-driven enforcement are moderate, and though updates may come by March, the current framework is clear and manageable for investors.
