Short-Term Rental Regulations
Loudonville does not have a dedicated short-term rental ordinance. Operators must apply to the Village Board of Zoning Appeals for approval before running an STR. The BZA operates without a formal scoring rubric, and approval is granted case-by-case. As of February 2026, there were 22 active Airbnb listings in the village. Village Council is openly discussing a regulatory overhaul that would include a numerical cap (25 units was cited as an example), a registration fee, a standardized decision framework, and an annual renewal process where operators with violations could lose their permit.
No new ordinance has been adopted yet, but the political direction is clearly toward tighter controls. New operators should expect the current permissive environment to harden during 2026. A transient occupancy tax applies under Codified Ordinances Chapter 870; the rate is not publicly posted and must be confirmed with the village fiscal office before purchase. Ohio state sales tax also applies. The enforcement severity is currently rated low, consistent with the absence of a formal enforcement framework.
