Local authority staff will struggle with volume of short-term planning applications, report says

New research indicates that local authority staff in Dublin will struggle to deal with the influx of planning permission applications for short-term lets and says that new Government regulations are “potentially compromised”.
The Government introduced new regulations on July 1 in light of the ongoing rental and housing crisis, defining a short-term let (STL) as not exceeding 14 days and requiring that short-term letting of an entire principal private residence while the resident is away will need planning permission if the letting is for more than 90 days in a year.
