Challenging to Investors
Palmer permits STRs in theory but practically limits them to owner-occupied tourist homes/B&Bs with tight occupancy caps; lodging houses and lodging units are constrained and often require special permits. The absence of a dedicated STR ordinance creates zoning ambiguity and extra compliance burden, while owner-occupancy and occupancy rules significantly deter non‑owner investor operations.
