Karen Engelberts Licensing Enforcement offrcer Short Term Lets - Corporate and Legals Services Perth & Kinross Council 2 High Street Perth PH1 5PH Dear Ms Engelberts As residents of Cottown we wish to object to the granting of short-term let licences for Cottown House 1,2,3. We have only very recently become aware of this licence application. Our main reason for obiecting is the access road damage caused by vehicles - cars, trucks and trailers - belonging to guests of these properties. The owners of Cottown House have contributed little or nothing to the repair of this private road during the last 20 years but yet are responsible for creating the heaviest use. The commercial vehicles belonging to itinerant ffades people also ueate noise early in the moming or late in the evening with their comings and goings. We, the residents, depend on the goodwill (labour and financial contribution) of a small group of residents to keep the road usable. The owners of Cottown House are not members of this group. The activities at the various buildings at Cottown House are very unclear to us as we are unaware of any change of use since the original Cottown Stud was closed (we are not even sure if it ever opened for business). We, therefore, do not know which premises are referred to as Cottown House 1,2, or 3. Furthermore, PKC granted planning permission for the construction of four houses in the grounds of Cottown House despite many objections to the application. A planning condition imposed by PKC that the access road should be repaired to a high standard bpfiore house construction began was later changed to the access road being repaired after all fbur houses are sold. No explanation has been provided for this critical amendment nor was it notified to any of the objectors.

Please note that as the entrance to the grounds of Cottown House is located around 150 metres from the last
house in Cottown, at the end of a private road, any public notice that may have been displayed related to a
short-term let application would not have been visible to Cottown residents, hence this letter being sent to PKC
after the objection deadline date.
