Attention City of Florence Residential Rental Property Owners!

ATTENTION CITY OF FLORENCE RESIDENTIAL RENTAL PROPERTY OWNERS!

Rental permit applications and payments for the 2024-2025 year are due June 30, 2024.

If you received a letter from the City of Florence and do not own any rental properties, please give the Planning Department a call at (843) 665-2047 or email at rentalpermits@cityofflorence.com so we may update our database.

If you no longer intend to rent out your residential property/unit between July 1, 2024, and June 30, 2025, please contact city staff to obtain a Waiver Signature Card.

If you now own 5 or more units or if any are now owned in a business or corporate structure, please contact city staff to update your information and receive directions to obtain a business license.

Business license and rental permit applications/renewals submitted after August 29, 2024 (60 days) will be assessed a late penalty fee. If the business license and rental permits have not been renewed by September 28, 2024 (90 days), a uniform ordinance summons to court will be issued to the property owner.

The Rental Permit(s) will be mailed or emailed to you once the fee has been paid.

As long as payments and applications are submitted by June 30th, you will be considered in compliance with the Residential Rental Registration Ordinance (Ordinance No. 2020-35) regardless of you having received your permit(s) via email or mail.
