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? - 15/11/2013 10:10:35 PM 1163 Views
For the door, yes. For the holiday let, I don't think so. - 16/11/2013 09:58:30 AM 1116 Views
Hm. Tricky, that. - 15/11/2013 10:38:57 PM 1188 Views

If there is anything you can do to fight it, do so - 16/11/2013 01:25:28 AM 1205 Views
Yes. - 16/11/2013 10:03:03 AM 1157 Views
The most reasonable thing would be to cut a bitch. - 16/11/2013 02:47:42 AM 1221 Views
this sounds fully reasonable, yeah. - 16/11/2013 03:22:46 AM 1216 Views
Quite. - 16/11/2013 10:06:43 AM 1059 Views
Cutting a bitch is always an answer. *NM* - 20/11/2013 02:20:06 PM 777 Views

Perhaps I don't grasp the gravity of the situation. - 16/11/2013 03:52:15 PM 1240 Views
It's more irritating that grave, but I do worry about security to an extent. - 16/11/2013 07:47:02 PM 1035 Views

do you let your child play unsupervised now? - 16/11/2013 06:46:08 PM 1056 Views
Not precisely. - 16/11/2013 08:01:54 PM 990 Views
Uh...isn't the nature of ownership that you can do what you want to with your property? - 16/11/2013 10:27:05 PM 994 Views
Not always, according to what title deeds and zoning restrictions say. *NM* - 16/11/2013 10:32:20 PM 528 Views
Well, then you do some research before you start a shit storm with your neighbors. *NM* - 18/11/2013 03:42:43 PM 549 Views
Which obviously we have done, Tim being who he is and all. *NM* - 18/11/2013 04:49:45 PM 557 Views
Well, so what is the neighbor doing wrong? *NM* - 18/11/2013 05:50:25 PM 576 Views
It depends on interpretation, from what I understand. - 18/11/2013 07:17:03 PM 1057 Views
Well, I'm not licensed in Scotland - 19/11/2013 03:04:02 PM 1014 Views

For zoning purposes it's being used as a residence. Don't be daft. - 20/11/2013 02:24:54 PM 1035 Views
It's not being used as a residence. No-one is living there. - 20/11/2013 04:26:05 PM 1083 Views
Yes, but subject to limitations. - 19/11/2013 07:03:40 PM 1485 Views
I would get the garden monitored with a camera - 17/11/2013 04:00:51 AM 1038 Views
Not a possiblity. *NM* - 18/11/2013 07:17:35 PM 623 Views
I can't see much you can do really... - 19/11/2013 03:01:40 AM 1080 Views
Does the building have a factor? - 19/11/2013 11:38:43 AM 1033 Views
Yes indeed. - 19/11/2013 07:13:06 PM 1003 Views
