At their December 8, 2025, meeting, the Board of Supervisors adopted Ordinance No. 382, establishing licensing regulations for short-term rentals. Property owners wishing to rent on a short-term basis, which is defined as 29 consecutive days or less in duration, must obtain a Rental Housing Permit from the Centre Region Code Administration (CRCA) and a Short-Term Rental License from Harris Township. Properties containing a short-term rental must be owner-occupied unless otherwise permitted by the ordinance.
The Township’s website has a page dedicated to short-term rental licensing and includes a copy of the adopted ordinance and applications. The site can be accessed by clicking here.
The short-term rental license process is new for both applicants and Township staff, so we expect a learning curve on both sides. Staff is happy to assist applicants throughout the process and will communicate any questions that arise throughout the review of applications. Applicants are welcome to contact the Zoning Officer, who also serves as the Short-Term Rental Officer, with any questions or concerns.
Schlow Library now has an additional remote book return located outside of the Harris Township Municipal Building at 224 E. Main Street in Boalsburg. We now have 7 remote book returns located throughout the Centre Region.
