Short-term rental rules in Torrey, UT
How Torrey regulates short-term rentals: the rules that apply, their sources, and pending changes.
Rules here limit which homes may operate as short-term rentals, how many, where, or for how many nights a year.
- Non-owner-occupied STR licenses hard-capped at the count in force when Chapter 4 was enacted — a frozen/maxed cap with no growth path
- No more than one STR per lot
- Owner-occupied STRs uncapped, creating a de facto ceiling on absentee/whole-home-investor supply
Based on: Torrey Town Code Chapter 3-4 (Short-Term Rental Properties), §3-4-3 Limitation on Short-Term Rentals
Summary of the rule
The total number of licensed non-owner occupied short-term rentals shall be limited to the number of short-term rentals with business licenses at the time this chapter was enacted; there shall be no limit on the total number of licensed owner-occupied short-term rentals.

City Watch tracks changes from public sources — council agendas, state bills, local news — not a complete legal compendium.
A city permit is not the whole picture — HOA, condominium, deed, or lease rules may be stricter.
City Watch provides good-faith summaries of publicly available information as of the review date shown. Rules, enforcement, and permit availability can change, and summaries may contain errors or omissions. Ratings describe the general regulatory environment; they do not establish whether a particular property or stay is permitted. This is general information, not legal advice. Before buying, listing, or hosting, verify applicable requirements with the responsible authorities and review any HOA, condominium, deed, or lease restrictions.
