Zoning & Conditions
No city-specific short-term-rental ordinance was located. Short-term rentals fall under the City’s general "Registration of Residential Rental Buildings" (EMC Chapter 8.40) and are subject to annual registration (except limited owner-occupied exceptions), required owner/property contact disclosures, and applicable zoning and building code requirements enforced by the Area Plan Commission/Building Commission. State law (Indiana HB1035) makes owner-occupied primary-residence STRs a permitted residential use and allows local units to require special exceptions/variances for non-primary-residence STRs.
