Back to Business Licenses

On September 7, 2021, the Board of Commissioners passed an ordinance regarding Short-Term Residential Rentals.

The purpose of this was to establish standards for Short-Term Rentals of privately-owned residential structures rented to transient occupants, minimize adverse effects of Short-term Rental uses on surrounding residential neighborhoods, and preserve the character of residential neighborhoods.

The information in this ordinance can be found in Article III, Chapter 18, starting in Section 18-380 of the Cherokee County Code of Ordinances.

The adoption of this ordinance created a requirement that short-term rental property obtain a certificate to lawfully rent, operate, or advertise any property for short term rentals and comply with all applicable requirements of this division.

To register your property as a Short-Term Rental, please complete the application and submit additional required documentation to the Development Service Center. The application and documentation will be reviewed for completeness and a certificate will be issued.

For additional information please contact the Development Service Center at 770-721-7810 or by email at [email protected]
