The process from here
Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.
Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.
About telecoms applications
How this application type works
Telecommunications applications cover masts, antennas and cabinets, most of which come forward as prior approval cases under permitted development rules. The council typically has 56 days to consider siting and appearance only. The need for the network itself is treated as established, so objections carry most weight where they address visual impact or siting.

26/00627/PNT Granted
Telecoms Mast 530 Metres North East Of 18 Almondhill Steading Almondhill Kirkliston
Replacement of the existing 6 No. antennas with proposed 6No. antennas, replacement of existing the 12 No. ERS with proposed 15 No. RRUs, installation of 1 No. dish, installation 1 No. equipment cabinet and ancillary development thereto. The proposed upgrade works will not have an impact on the height of the existing monopole. The total number of ERS are increasing by 3 No. ERS however, the increase in radio equipment on the headframe is not considered to result in an unduly bulky appearance. The upgrade works are relatively minor as a result; the overall site appearance will remain relatively similar to the existing. The proposed upgrade is required to provide improved technical provisions, greater capacity, and coverage in the area.
