Short-Term Rental Types
The regulations identify three short-term rental units (STR types):
- Residential STR Permit - Short-term rental of all or part of a dwelling unit in residential zoning districts, such as houses, condos, and apartments.
- Residential STR Permit, Accessory Dwelling Unit - Dwelling units that are accessory structures located on the same lot as a principal dwelling unit or main house. To qualify for an STR permit, a property owner with an accessory dwelling unit must live in either the principal or the accessory unit. Accessory dwelling units are often called "casitas" or "granny flats."
- Non-Residential STR Registrations - Dwelling units in non-residential districts rented for less than 30 days. Lodging units issued building permits and business licenses, such as hotels, motels, and bed and breakfast inns, are not STRs. Non-residential units are exempt from the spacing requirements and 1,000-unit limit that apply to units in the other two categories.
Fees
New Permits - $100, a one-time non-refundable application processing fee.
Annual fee - $325 for the Short-Term rental permit and business license. This fee is due once initial inspections have been passed and again at renewal every year.
These fees are required for all short-term rental types.
