He lives in Calgary and rents as well as runs a short term rental and has let people camp in his yard for the summer. He has made friends with "Jas" the bylaw officer with his file and it seems as though there is some favoritism going on. He has taken a beautiful half acre property and let it turn into a flop house with over 12 people at times living in this house. The yard is now weeds and dirt when it was grass and flowers. This is less than 500 feet from our million's of dollars of "wine trail" we have all paid deary for in taxes. Shameful!

If owner not on site then who is going to insure the rest of neighborhood can continue to enjoy the peace and tranquility of their residence. By making residency for the owner and having to have proper insurance coverage mandatory could solve this issue. Suggest you ask for input from B.C Bed and Breakfast Innkeepers Guild

Just above Menu Road in Lakeview Heights. Do not legitimize these operations by licensing. This is only a revenue stream for the city, nothing more. Rewrite the bylaws to make these operations illegal, with very hefty, per diem fines. It's the only way. To eliminate this problem.

A few years ago we had the previous owner use it as short term rentals. It was steady party until the early morning.

Non hosted rentals have a significant negative impact on neighbours and city resources, via noise, increased vehicle use, increased garbage, decreased property values, strains on limited RCMP resources to respond to noise complaints and negative impacts on bylaw enforcement resources. I live near at least 2 and they are a nightmare for my family and me.

Many of these homes have non resident owners and due to the very high cost per month the short term rentals usually involve multiple families. We want to know our neighbors for an enoyable place to live as well as the added safety of recognition of people and vehicles. Having new neighbors every week is not a comforting feeling.
I also noted that during the peak of the COVID 19 situation these business did not obey the laws( orders) they continued to operate and encourage visitors to visit from locations where the number of cases was much higher. Their greed over ruled any common sense and sense of community safety.
