Challenging to Investors
STRs are only permitted through case‑by‑case conditional use approval (Board of Zoning Appeals) and zoning certificates, with layered fees and possible building permits. The zoning code dates to 2007, lacks STR‑specific rules, and imposes enforcement penalties (fines/misdemeanors) while requiring compatibility with residential uses. This creates permitting uncertainty, compliance burden, and practical constraints that deter straightforward investment.
