The county said the move is part of broader work to document and standardize short-term and nightly rental operations in Summit County. Call (435) 615-3924 to speak with an operator. Calls and concerns related to noise complaints, potential law enforcement matters or emergencies should continue to be directed to Summit County Emergency Dispatch at 911. Summit County leads the state in short-term rentals, according to a recent Kem C. Gardner Institute report. Short-term rentals, often found on sites like Airbnb and VRBO, have grown rapidly in popularity statewide since 2021. Per the institute’s study, “the average number of monthly STR [short-term rental] listings increased by 39.4% from 16,803 in 2021 to 23,428 in 2023.” Of those more than 23,000 short-term rentals, 60% are located within three counties: Summit, Salt Lake and Washington. In Summit County, approximately 23.8% of total housing is listed as a short-term rental.
