Can you BnB it in Weed?
RestrictedWeed allows short term rentals in every zoning district but requires a permit first. Renting rooms in the home you live in needs a city clerk permit, while renting a whole house with the owner absent needs a conditional use permit from the planning commission, plus a city business license and transient occupancy tax.

Transfer when the home sellsChapter 5.24 is silent on transfer. It contains no transfer clause, no grace period and no runs with the land language. The definitions section requires the applicant to be the record owner of the property, so on its face the permit is issued to the owner and a buyer should expect to apply in their own name, and a vacation rental conditional use permit may run with the land under general planning law. Confirm with the city clerk before relying on an existing permit.L15.24.010, 5.24.030 · code text · checked 2026-09-13
