Generally Investor friendly
Short‑term rentals are expressly allowed citywide with no known city STR licensing, caps, or fees; basic compliance is building/fire safety, OSSF/drainage where applicable, HOA checks, and state HOT/sales tax registration. The absence of published city STR rules adds some uncertainty, but overall the regulatory path is straightforward and investor‑friendly.
