Do I need a permit to rent out my house as a Short-Term Rental?

If your property is located in the residential zone, yes, a permit is required. In residential zones, a short-term rental (STR) cannot be located within 500 feet of another short-term rental, or on the same property as another short-term rental.  To find out what zone you are located in, check out our interactive map or reach out to our office. And to find out if your property is eligible to become a short-term rental, check out our current STR map or contact our office.  If eligible, the application and corresponding fees can be found on our Applications & Fees page.  If your house is located in commercial zones C-2 or C-3, short-term rentals are a permitted use under lodging (hotels and motels) and do not require a permit with the City.
