Summary
Coral Springs does not cap the number of nights, length of stay, or frequency of vacation rental bookings. Florida Statute 509.032(7)(b) preempts any city ordinance enacted after June 1, 2011 from regulating the duration or frequency of rentals; Coral Springs adopted its program in 2021 (Ord. 2021-107), so no local night cap can apply.
509.032 Duties. — (7) PREEMPTION AUTHORITY. — (a) The regulation of public lodging establishments and public food service establishments, including, but not limited to, sanitation standards, inspections, training and testing of personnel, and matters related to the nutritional content and marketing of foods offered in such establishments, is preempted to the state. This paragraph does not preempt the authority of a local government or local enforcement district to conduct inspections of public lodging and public food service establishments for compliance with the Florida Building Code and the Florida Fire Prevention Code, pursuant to ss. 553.80 and 633.206.
(b) A local law, ordinance, or regulation may not prohibit vacation rentals or regulate the duration or frequency of rental of vacation rentals. This paragraph does not apply to any local law, ordinance, or regulation adopted on or before June 1, 2011.
(c) Paragraph (b) does not apply to any local law, ordinance, or regulation exclusively relating to property valuation as a criterion for vacation rental if the local law, ordinance, or regulation is required to be approved by the state land planning agency pursuant to an area of critical state concern designation.
Full Breakdown
032(7)(b) preempts municipalities from prohibiting vacation rentals or regulating the duration or frequency of rentals, except where the local ordinance was in place on or before June 1, 2011. Coral Springs first adopted its vacation rental program through Ordinance 2021-107 in 2021 (amended by Ord. 2022-109 in April 2022), well after the grandfather date, so the City is barred from imposing a minimum-night stay, a maximum number of bookings per year, or a cap on total annual rental nights. 160 - but none of these limits the number or length of paid stays.
013(4)(a)1 defines a vacation rental as a unit rented to guests more than three times per year for periods of less than 30 days. Operators owe 6% Florida sales tax plus 6% Broward County Tourist Development Tax on stays of six months or less. Private HOA covenants and condo declarations are not preempted and may impose stricter minimum-stay rules.
Violations & Fines
There are no city penalties for the number or length of legally registered rentals. State preemption (FS 509.032) blocks any duration or frequency cap. Failure to collect and remit Florida sales tax or Broward County Tourist Development Tax remains a separate state and county violation enforceable by the Department of Revenue and the Broward Tax Collector.
