1 SPR STL From: Sent: 17 March 2026 10:14 To: SPR STL Cc: Subject: Short term let application - Flat F, 3 South Street, Fiscals House Perth, PH2 8NJ Attachments: Bin store.jpg; notice.jpg Categories: OBJECTIONS/COMPLAINTS Good morning, I reside at Flat A, 1 South Street, PH2 8NJ and yesterday saw this attached pinned to the communal bin store when I put the bins out for collection. I had not been aware by Jamie Deans of the intention to short term let Flat F but since he purchased the property we have been aware of many different visitors staying in the property saying they were at the 'Air BnB'. I wish to make the following objections to this license: 1. The title deeds at Fiscals House do not allow the owner to run a business from the property 2. The title deeds do not permit the owner to run a short term let 3. This is a listed building and Flat F has been converted from a 2-bed property to a 3-bed property without planning consent. 4. We have witnessed a large turnover of occupants in the property since Jamie Deans purchased it : 1. construction workers leaving beer tins and rubbish on the window sill outside whilst they smoke on the street 2. take away contents spilled on the carpet in the hallway, left for the other owners to clean 3. we have had women in dressing gowns smoking in the street outside the flat 4. Occupants have been wedging the external door open whilst out smoking - this is not safe for the other residents 5. Occupants pressing entry buzzers to gain access saying they are staying there - nuisance 6. Whilst pinning the door open they jammed the runner leaving residents locked out of their flat on Thursday 5th March till 11pm awaiting an emergency joiner - no access out if there was a fire! A cost to the owners. 5. I have an elderly vulnerable neighbour who lives alone in flat E who I provide care and support for and believe the short term let poses a threat to her safety and security Mr Deans has not advised the other 11 owners at Fiscals House of his intention to apply for short term let/Air BnB and I believe from reading the terms on the website that he has not complied with displaying the public notice in an easy to read place for the general public.

2 This flat should be a home for a family to rent - not for people who want a cheap place to stay for the night with no respect for the neighbours, there are plenty of B&B's and hotels in Perth to stay the night in. Regards, Pamela Conway Flat A 1 South Street Perth PH2 8NJ
