Section(s): 22-22. (C) - Allowed uses.
Section(s):  9-27 (B) – Doing Business without a Tax

Renting of dwellings for less than six months is not permissible in this district without a conditional use approved by the Fort Pierce City Commission. Please cease all short term rentals immediately.

Short term or vacation rentals require a Business Tax Receipt. Please review the procedure for short term rentals on the City of Fort Pierce website at http://www.cityoffortpierce.com/478/Short-Term-Vacation-Rentals.

In the event you are found in violation of Section 9-27(b) for doing business without a business tax, all utility services to the business premises will be suspended while the violation continues.

The city requests that if the Special Magistrate finds the violator has conducted short term rentals and if he continues to do so the rentals that have already commenced are considered irreversible and irrevocable in nature, that a fine equal to one month's rental be assessed. The City also requests an immediate cease and desist order be imposed and all future rentals be terminated immediately. Failure to do so will result in the utilities at the location being terminated while the violation continues.
