A review of ºÚÁÏÕýÄÜÁ¿â€™s short term lets (STL) licensing will take place this summer.
During Councillors agreed to publicly consult on the city’s existing policy and conditions framework. This is in line with a decision taken in 2023 that the city’s policy would be reviewed after a year.
Regulatory Convener, Councillor Neil Ross, said:
The opportunity for everyone to input into how the short term lets licensing scheme is working was a commitment we gave last year. We want to hear how the scheme has impacted the residents and businesses of ºÚÁÏÕýÄÜÁ¿.
With Committee members’ approval today, we’ll now work towards launching a public consultation in the summer. I’m confident this will help us to better understand how businesses, residents and others are finding the policy and regulation of short-term lets in ºÚÁÏÕýÄÜÁ¿.
Details of the public consultation will be publicised on the Council’s consultation hub over the summer and a report highlighting the results and further recommendations will be brought forward in the Autumn.
