HomeMy WebLinkAboutAir B&BHow do I apply for a permit to rent my house on Air B & B?
Regular Rental Permits are for properties that are not owner occupied and are
rented to tenants that have at least 30-day leases. The exception to this is any
owner- occupied property that also has more than 1 roomer.
Bed & Breakfast Permits are needed for any type of Air B & B use. There are
different requirements for this type of permit.
• The property must be owner occupied.
• It must be a single family, detached structure.
• Guests are allowed to stay no more than 14 days.
• A minimum of two (2) off street parking spaces must be provided in
addition to the parking spaces required for the dwelling occupants.
