@oldtownrez@Edinburgh_flex@PaulMcLennan7 @JohnMasonMSP @cllrcammyday Or they could call Living Rent and ask for Eilidh cos she thinks she can get her Landlords permission to move out and sublet and that’s not an STL and she doesn’t need a licence. Sorted.
I'd suggest that the person phones the STL license exempt Chaval Old Town Chambers...
Remember the cosy deal of the century between @cllrcammyday and Mohammed Shareef Abdulrazaq Abdulla Alnadhar Alawadhi & Humaid Sultan Jaber Alumutaiwei (aka the Dubai boys) repurposing council property for an annual rent of £1 per year?
Revenues extracted offshore and no £5869 license fee for the council as more than five apartments.

@PaulMcLennan7 - Someone new in govt looking for temporary accommodation near Parliament, 2 months later in year. Suggestions?
Not much will be available due to STL planning and licensing combo shutdown.
@JohnMasonMSP Any tents within half a mile of Scottish Parliament?
The Scottish Government has relinquished control of Scotland’s £6bn tourism industry to local authorities and @Edinburgh_CC is about to tank the entire industry for the whole country. A THREAD (1/15)
1/ What are the 14 Red Flags recently highlighted when the @ASSCnews met with @PaulMcLennan7 at the @Scotgov... Clarify planning is where a material change of use has occurred, unless in a Planning Control Area, & not applied retrospectively
@CllrBenParker Do you represent people who provide services and keep themselves off benefits by doing so? Shocking behaviour. And those who are excited to be directed by you should know you happily waste their time to put business owners in the stocks. For your amusement? Not for a real purpose
@CllrBenParker Which law are you referring to. Why rely on lies and misrepresentation, it gives the appearance of lacking Confidence in the position you've taken. You k ow the laws which are in place and which are not yet and which will likely not be passed.
"Scotland’s latest bizarre economic policy is about to run headlong into common sense. The result will be a disaster for #Edinburgh’s famed International Festival, which is due to kick off, as usual, this August" #SaveSC

@CllrBenParker You should be ashamed, or embarrassed, probably both.
You know the numbers, empty homes, unbuilt homes.
You know the FACTS and this is blatantly dishonest and vindictive.
@FionaCampbell74@CllrChasBooth @cllrcammyday @SaveSCScotland Could councillors take time to understand the legal dubiety and the timeframes involved? You'd hope maybe they'd understand there's no chance of ignoring the law when hosts are battling through compliance needs, hoping for support for existing professionally run businesses.
@LivingRent_Edi Careful what U wish for. EVEN if all self catering places close as a result, what's Certain is income will drop, jobs will be lost, festival acts will be lost etc.
The Numbers are so small, (Check!)
& EVEN IF ALL are closed down they won't all become rentals. That's certain.
@LivingRent_Edi Simply not believable. Most business buyers pick up a property 'needing work' which 1st time buyers don't want to take on. It's rare for investors to outbid anyone. Desperation leads to offers over value, not a common business model 🙄
