Challenging to Investors
Laurel Regulations
STRs are not banned, but they are not clearly permitted citywide; standalone non‑owner‑occupied STRs lack explicit authorization and are treated under the same B&B/business‑license framework, creating zoning and enforcement ambiguity. Operators must secure a business license, meet zoning limits, and pass fire/building inspections, which are doable but add cost and complexity without a supportive city tone or clear dedicated rules.
