Summary
Weld County and Greeley set no annual cap on the number of nights a property can be rented short-term. Colorado defines a short-term rental as any stay under 30 days, so 30-plus-night lets simply fall outside STR rules rather than counting against a limit.
"Short-term rental" means the rental of a lodging unit for less than thirty days.

Full Breakdown
There is no maximum-nights-per-year limit for short-term rentals in unincorporated Weld County or in Greeley; a property can be rented for short stays year-round subject to zoning and tax compliance. Colorado law defines a short-term rental as the rental of a lodging unit for less than thirty days, so any booking of 30 or more consecutive nights is treated as a longer-term tenancy, not an STR. Some Colorado counties cap annual STR nights, but Weld has not. If a future ordinance adds a cap, it would appear in the county or city code, so check current rules before booking a busy season.
Violations & Fines
With no night cap in place, there is nothing to enforce on that point; violations arise only from unpaid taxes or zoning-use non-compliance, handled by tax and code-enforcement authorities.
