Quote from @Michael Baum: Hey @David Herzog, you are pretty much out of luck as a STR from what I can tell.Hosts must register for a Home-sharing permit for a yearly $89 fee.Hosts can only register one property with the city at a time.Hosts can only register their primary residence (where they reside at least six months of the year).Hostshare limited to a 120-day cap per year, and can sign up for “extended home sharing” if they would like to host beyond the 120-day cap.

Thank you @John Underwood and @Michael Baum!

Thank you Michael and John.
