Short term rentals prohibited
Operative Text
Short-term rental of any dwelling or dwelling unit for less than 30 consecutive days in a residential zoning district is prohibited. State licensed hotels, motels and lodging establishments located outside residential districts or residential planned unit development districts are allowed, pursuant to applicable city Codes.
Section 12-904 of the Coon Rapids Code of Ordinances chapter 12-900 prohibits the rental of any home or residential unit for periods shorter than 30 consecutive days within residential zoning districts. The rule draws a clear line between short-term rental activity in residential areas and state-licensed hotels, motels, and lodging establishments, which are permitted when located outside those residential zones. This means platforms and arrangements commonly associated with vacation or transient rentals are not a permitted use in Coon Rapids residential districts.
