Certificate lisls the business use as "Vacalion Rental." This is not ordinary resideniial occupancy. lt is vacation-rental / short{erm / transient-lodging activity. 2, Certiflcate identifles the zoning as "PRD-1." The controlling question is whether Chapter 28 expressly authorizes vacation-rental activity, short-term rental activity, or transient lodging activity in PRD-1. 3.
