In Ferguson Township, property owners are permitted to operate short-term rentals with some restrictions.

The Township requires a short term rental permit prior to operating, as well as a rental permit from Centre Region Code Administration. A one-time Short-Term Rental permit fee of $25 is required with the application.

Please keep the following in mind:

  • The dwelling must be the permanent address of the property owner and/or leasee and the owner and/or leasee must occupy the dwelling for at least six (6) months of the calendar year.
  • Short Term Rentals are subject to enforcement of the Township’s noise, nuisance and property maintenance-related ordinances.
  • The Short Term Rental must provide one off-street parking space per bedroom available for rental.
