I would like to register my objection to granting a short term let licence to the above property.
At this time over 30% of properties in the Kirkmichael area are either holiday homes or short term lets.  On
Main street where Glenburn is situated 12 or 50% of houses are either holiday homes or STL’s.  The continued
growth of STL’s and holiday home is negatively effecting the character of the village and its community.
Licencing more STL’s will reduce homes available to those wishing to stay and work in the area, increase
property values (as the return from STL’s far out strips traditional letting) thereby reducing the opportunity to
purchase or rent a home.  Businesses in Kirkmichael already struggle to recruit staff as no affordable
accommodation is available thus reducing thier ability to provide services and grow our economy.  I therefore
request that the Council refuse this application for a STL licence as it will be detrimental to the local
communities character and economy.
