Illegal camping in the woods

Mr Billy Gu lives in Lexington according to his Boston property assessment, his AirBnB profile, and the very applications for an owner adjacent/limited share short term rental registrations he applied for. Why has he been allowed to renew his applications if he no longer qualifies? His 3 family home has 4 full units listed as rentals. There is no limited share. An on site inspection isnt even needed to determine there is a violation. - First floor (not STR) - https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/17573922?source_impression_id=p3_1713818748_tx0D9zpZbiI116zB - second floor (NOT limited share as registered) - https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/17559493?source_impression_id=p3_1713818110_5N1MTDk8cUsZgY9J - third floor (NOT owner adjacent as registered) - https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/17559756?source_impression_id=p3_1713818699_q%2BPHjkaU%2FLNdzWWp - basement (is this unit even legal? no) - https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/17559846?source_impression_id=p3_1713818718_%2FlF6mf4SuPKJcc6w

64 Sigourney St is a legal one family with one legal kitchen. This is very clearly a second unit that was created in the basement. Please verify the permits for the splitting of this house into two legal units - https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/12191871?source_impression_id=p3_1713816941_wIImTdNEOLygYXcg

This is the same host as complaint #101005416985. STR-521905 This STR registration is being used for two separate full units so it should have two registrations. On its application it stated that it will NOT be a short term rental and instead will be used as a corporate rental with a minimum of a 10 day stay. This is not the case as there are two listings per unit and one is for 1 night minimum. There is a small note that in two listings of 4 that "This unit should be rented by individuals or family members on medical related travel." in the listing but that is NOT proof of a hospital contract. Can ISD please verify that a contract exists? Based on this hosts other listings it just appears to be a loophole being used to add more listings- Unit 1 (less than 10 days) - https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/1126971049035533233?source_impression_id=p3_1713481510_Z134FUrOa0xqNMHP&check_in=2024-04-21&guests=1&adults=1&check_out=2024-04-22 - Unit 1 (more than 10) - https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/19540224?source_impression_id=p3_1713481510_PVpBm%2FwPfFTktYm7&check_in=2024-05-19&guests=1&adults=1 - Unit 2 (less than 10 days) - https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/1053675085916056301?source_impression_id=p3_1713481510_9ZkPltvUrj8aQeUo&check_in=2024-05-06&guests=1&adults=1&check_out=2024-05-07 - Unit 2 (more than 10) - https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/20926438?source_impression_id=p3_1713481510_QdsOxeJxC9ntDDKW&check_in=2024-05-06&guests=1&adults=1

STR-461702 - This STR registration is being used for two separate full units so it should have two registrations. On its application it stated that it will NOT be a short term rental and instead will be used as a corporate rental. Unfortunately this is not true as you can see that one unit has no minimum nights and the other has 2 minimum nights per stay. This home does not qualify as a primary residence as the owner appears to live in Newton. There is a small note that "This unit should be rented by individuals or family members on medical related travel." but that is NOT proof of a hospital contract. Which is it? Hospital contract, corporate stay, or short term rental? It doesnt appear to qualify for any of these options. - Unit 1 - https://www.airbnb.com.sg/rooms/1023919484454878841?source_impression_id=p3_1713479960_PHijq8mLpP2MkIeE - Unit 2 - https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/1023968409024670674?source_impression_id=p3_1713479958_ZZKLzKV99SzLQku%2B

this is a followup to closed ticket# #101005302117. This issue has not been resolved and the host has dropped the minimum night stays from 3 nights to 2 nights. Why has the ticket been closed when the violation has gotten worse? Please require them to register just like everyone else. - https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/1022693760006872584?adults=1&children=0&enable_m3_private_room=true&infants=0&pets=0&check_in=2024-03-15&check_out=2024-03-17&source_impression_id=p3_1708455298_TNhjr6mruwK4yKc4&previous_page_section_name=1000&federated_search_id=b98f510d-293b-491e-98b8-4124cf88c606
