WHILE the upcoming Fleadh Cheoil is a much welcomed development for Belfast, for those of us with short term lets in our community it also brings a sense of dread. In my small inner city community of tightly packed two up two down terraced houses there are eight short term lets. None of them have planning permission to operate as short term lets. Last year I reported one operating in my street to Planning NI and Tourism NI . Nothing has been done. This very busy short term let is still operating at full tilt and it still does not have planning permission.
