The Coral Springs Vacation Rental Registration Program was established by Ordinance 2021-107, with subsequent amendments strengthening regulations based on resident feedback. Short-term rentals are defined as any residential dwelling advertised or rented to transient occupants more than three times per calendar year for periods of less than 30 days. Owners must first obtain a Florida DBPR vacation rental license, then register with the city through the Business Tax Office. Required documents include proof of ownership, a city-approved floor plan detailing bedroom count, an affidavit of compliance, proof of insurance, and a signed agreement with the Coral Springs Police Department. An inspection for compliance with the Land Development Code is required prior to issuance of the initial vacation rental certificate. The license number must appear on all advertisements (Airbnb, VRBO, Booking.com). Annual renewal is required by September 30. The city monitors major platforms weekly for unlicensed listings.
Progressive penalty system: after a second violation, the license is suspended for 30 days. After four violations, suspension for 365 days, plus 30 additional days for each subsequent offense. Operating without a license results in shutdown and penalties.
