Can you BnB it in Belvedere?
No STR ordinanceThe Belvedere Municipal Code has no short term rental or vacation rental chapter and no transient occupancy tax chapter, so the code creates no short term rental permit program. A buyer should confirm with the city, because Belvedere zoning lists permitted uses and its only lodging definition is a hotel of four or more sleeping rooms for hire.
