Score: 63 (moderate)
Property owners must obtain a Short-Term Rental permit and a city business license. Hosted 'homeshares' require the owner to be present, while unhosted 'vacation rentals' are capped at 100 days per year and must be at least 100-200 feet from other rentals. Rentals are entirely prohibited in certain gated communities and in Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs).
