STR Interactive Zoning Map Tool
Use this tool to check the zoning of your prospective STR.
At the City Council meeting on June 28, 2022, Corpus Christi Mayor Paulette M. Guajardo and the City Council approved a new Short-Term Rental Ordinance. The ordinance amends the City’s Unified Development Code (UDC) to allow short-term rentals (STRs) with restrictions in single-family residential districts citywide but not in single-family residential districts within the Padre/Mustang Island Area Development Plan area. The STR Ordinance requires registration of any property that is rented for less than 30 consecutive days in all areas of Corpus Christi.
Owner/operators of properly zoned Short-Term Rentals within the city limits must apply for a registration permit using the link below beginning on July 11, 2022. The city will continue to accept applications for the Flour Bluff and Padre/Mustang Island areas for STR units located in multi-family and commercial zoned areas. Proposed STR units located within single family zoned areas in Flour Bluff will be eligible to apply for the permit on July 11, 2022.
