1 CDS STL From: Peter Kelly < > Sent: 27 November 2023 19:01 To: CDS STL Cc: Lisa Kelly Subject: Re: 1 Dunbar Court, Gleneagles Village, PH3 - Objection to Short Term Lets CAUTION: This email originated from an external organisaƟon. Do not follow guidance, click links, or open aƩachments unless you have verified the sender and know the content is safe. Dear Sirs RepresentaƟon in respect of ApplicaƟon For Short Term License Property: 1 Dunbar Court, Gleneagles, Perthshire, PH3 1SE Applicants Details: DQSL Investments Ltd Objector Details – Peter Kelly and Lisa Coyle, 20 Dunbar Court and 3 Glamis Court We wish to strenuously object to the applicaƟons for short term lets at 1 Dunbar Court. Our objecƟon is “late” as no noƟce was issued or displayed by the applicant. We walk by that property regularly and no applicaƟon noƟce was visible. The contracted gardeners confirmed the same and we only became aware of the applicaƟon via our neighbours who had checked the applicaƟon system online. As such, the applicant should have to noƟfy again but, at the very least, given the fact it was not noƟfied, this objecƟon should be valid and heard. We own 20 Dunbar Court, and are in missives to purchase 3 Glamis Court and short term lets has resulted in: The area being much too busy. There being no car parking as groups are coming and taking over. AnƟ social behaviour, drunkenness and extreme noise/noise polluƟon, all of which combine in reducing our amenity and that of our neighbours. Short lets guests driving cars too fast in what was a safe area for our children to play. It is clear short term lets are happening and will conƟnue to happen. Short term lets aƩract groups who use the faciliƟes of the hotel and this results in those groups being drunken and noisy last at night. If the applicaƟons are granted, the issue will become more problemaƟc and severe. There will be no controls on groups or behaviours and this anƟ social behaviour impacts heavily on owners and long term renters who come to this safe haven to enjoy the amenity and quiet. All of this will be impacted by the behaviour of short term landlards who simply wish to profit at the expense of the amenity of others. I understand the Owners AssociaƟon are objecƟng too and that short term lets may even be prohibited in the Ɵtle of ownership. If this is the case, an applicaƟon granted would breach longstanding Ɵtle condiƟons that are there for a reason. To stop disrupƟon by a minority of the majority. I also believe that for 1 Dunbar Court, there will be encroachment and use of common land which will affect both of our properƟes and reduce security. Many thanks for considering.
