Moundsville Regulations
STRs are legally permissible but sharply constrained: residential-style whole-home rentals are only allowed as Tourist Homes by right in the Recreation‑Conservation district or by conditional use in Mixed‑Use, and are prohibited in the city’s main residential and most commercial zones. The B&B pathway requires conditional use in most districts (only by right in Corridor Commercial), and both paths entail costly, discretionary approvals (public hearings, site/floor/operating plans, parking/occupancy conditions) plus health, fire, and business licensing steps.
