Why not read some of the previous threads?

If you did, you would find the PURSUANT TO STATE LAW, city, towns & counties in Florida, can not regulate STR's.

Here you go:


In 2011, then-Gov. Rick Scott signed legislation that prohibited local governments from enacting any new law that restricted the use of vacation rentals, prohibited those rentals, or otherwise regulated them, giving that power to the state government.

That law “grandfathered” some 75 local ordinances already on the books, meaning they could remain in force. After pushback from cities, the Legislature reversed itself in 2014, allowing local governments to handle problems including noise, parking, and trash, but still preventing them from prohibiting or regulating the duration or frequency of short-vacation rentals.

And they can be “ungrandfathered” that’s the beauty of democracy. It is an organic process.
