Generally Investor friendly
Short‑term rentals are allowed today under general lodging/zoning rules in a low‑regulation environment, and the city is drafting a STR ordinance with registration, fees, inspections and occupancy limits. Current compliance relies on standard building/fire code requirements and taxes, with no explicit caps or pause, so the regulatory burden remains moderate and manageable for investors.
