Gilbert requires STR operators to provide one off-street parking space per bedroom, which effectively ties occupancy to bedroom count. The June 2023 STR ordinance regulates rental operations to maintain residential character.
Gilbert's STR ordinance, approved in June 2023, establishes operational standards for short-term rentals. Occupancy is linked to the property's bedroom count through the one-parking-space-per-bedroom requirement. Properties must maintain their residential character during rental periods. Events, large gatherings, and non-residential uses are not permitted. Operators must obtain a Town of Gilbert STR license and comply with all operational requirements including noise and parking standards. The license application requires disclosure of property details and maximum occupancy.
Exceeding occupancy limits or hosting events can result in license suspension or revocation. Operators must respond to town complaints promptly.
