Operating a short-term rental in Springdale requires a Transient Lodging Permit and a Town Business License. Rentals are strictly limited to specific commercial and residential zones (VR, VC, CC, CeC) and are prohibited in most residential areas. There is no primary residency requirement, but ADUs are not permitted, and a fire inspection is mandatory before a permit is issued.
To host an Airbnb in Springdale, you must first confirm your property is in one of the few allowed zones, as most residential areas are prohibited. You'll need to get both a Town Business License and a Transient Lodging Permit, which involves passing a fire inspection before you can even apply. Be sure to calculate your maximum guest count correctly (2 per bedroom + 2) and include your permit number in your online listing. While there's no requirement for you to live at the property, you cannot rent out an accessory dwelling unit (ADU).
