How is a short-term holiday rental not a business? LiterateDog Send a noteboard - 19/11/2013 06:01:50 PM

The lady is basically turning her flapartment into an unlicensed one room hotel. Other than scale, how is she any different than a Holiday Inn?

Now, I'm in favor of lax land use regulations, but if those regulations (especially of businesses) exist, then they should be enforced.

Don't they need to apply for planning permission to do that? Aviendha - 15/11/2013 10:10:35 PM 1335 Views
Also doesn't she need to apply for change of use to holiday let from residential? Aviendha - 15/11/2013 10:12:59 PM 1296 Views
For the door, yes. For the holiday let, I don't think so. Rebekah - 16/11/2013 09:58:30 AM 1295 Views
Hm. Tricky, that. Legolas - 15/11/2013 10:38:57 PM 1391 Views

If there is anything you can do to fight it, do so Wibble - 16/11/2013 01:25:28 AM 1389 Views
Yes. Rebekah - 16/11/2013 10:03:03 AM 1349 Views
The most reasonable thing would be to cut a bitch. LiterateDog - 16/11/2013 02:47:42 AM 1406 Views
this sounds fully reasonable, yeah. temeraire - 16/11/2013 03:22:46 AM 1388 Views
Quite. Rebekah - 16/11/2013 10:06:43 AM 1219 Views
Cutting a bitch is always an answer. *NM* @my - 20/11/2013 02:20:06 PM 888 Views

Perhaps I don't grasp the gravity of the situation. Palatine - 16/11/2013 03:52:15 PM 1434 Views
It's more irritating that grave, but I do worry about security to an extent. Rebekah - 16/11/2013 07:47:02 PM 1189 Views

do you let your child play unsupervised now? random thoughts - 16/11/2013 06:46:08 PM 1229 Views
Not precisely. Rebekah - 16/11/2013 08:01:54 PM 1182 Views
Uh...isn't the nature of ownership that you can do what you want to with your property? Tom - 16/11/2013 10:27:05 PM 1175 Views
Not always, according to what title deeds and zoning restrictions say. *NM* Rebekah - 16/11/2013 10:32:20 PM 610 Views
Well, then you do some research before you start a shit storm with your neighbors. *NM* Tom - 18/11/2013 03:42:43 PM 649 Views
Which obviously we have done, Tim being who he is and all. *NM* Rebekah - 18/11/2013 04:49:45 PM 637 Views
Well, so what is the neighbor doing wrong? *NM* Tom - 18/11/2013 05:50:25 PM 668 Views
It depends on interpretation, from what I understand. Rebekah - 18/11/2013 07:17:03 PM 1330 Views
Well, I'm not licensed in Scotland Tom - 19/11/2013 03:04:02 PM 1222 Views

For zoning purposes it's being used as a residence. Don't be daft. Tom - 20/11/2013 02:24:54 PM 1215 Views
It's not being used as a residence. No-one is living there. Rebekah - 20/11/2013 04:26:05 PM 1285 Views
The essence of the question was "Would you think it worth the bother to seek an injunction?" Tim - 19/11/2013 07:01:30 PM 1415 Views
I am a fan of British English usually, but not in the case of "flat". And yes, I'd go for interdict Tom - 20/11/2013 02:27:19 PM 1211 Views
Another lovely piece of Language peculiar to Scots Law... majander - 27/11/2013 04:34:23 PM 1360 Views
Though I always thought interdict was the Pope excommunicating an entire nation. *NM* Tom - 20/11/2013 02:30:23 PM 653 Views
Yes, but subject to limitations. Tim - 19/11/2013 07:03:40 PM 1734 Views
Yes, restrictive covenants. And those things can be unreasonable and still legal. Tom - 20/11/2013 02:29:45 PM 1203 Views
I would get the garden monitored with a camera Sports_Gambler - 17/11/2013 04:00:51 AM 1202 Views
Not a possiblity. *NM* Rebekah - 18/11/2013 07:17:35 PM 718 Views
I can't see much you can do really... Sports_Gambler - 19/11/2013 03:01:40 AM 1282 Views
Does the building have a factor? majander - 19/11/2013 11:38:43 AM 1240 Views
Yes indeed. Rebekah - 19/11/2013 07:13:06 PM 1185 Views
