STRs are allowed citywide with clear zoning pathways and simple web portal–based permitting; registration starts Nov 2024 and requires a Zoning Clearance and business license with typical fees and inspections. There are no stated caps or unit bans, and enforcement is standard but not hostile, so compliance is manageable but not trivial.
