What refusal means

The process from here

The council refused this application for the reasons set out on the decision notice, which the council portal holds in full. Only the applicant can appeal a refusal; the time limit runs from the decision date and is shorter for householder schemes.

Refusal does not prevent a fresh attempt. Applicants often address the reasons for refusal and resubmit, so a refused scheme is not necessarily the end of proposals for the site.

About prior approval applications

How this application type works

Prior approval applications arise where permitted development rights already grant the principle of the work, such as larger home extensions, changes of use to housing or agricultural buildings. The council may only consider the specific matters set out in the rules, for example transport, flooding or appearance, and in many classes the work may proceed if the council does not respond within the deadline, commonly 56 days.

    I bought Flat 4 110 Comiston Road on 10th July 2026 and I am notifying you and ask for prior approval that I will reinstate the original wooden sash window design throughout the property and replace the current UPVC windows at the property. The current windows open fully (swing) and are not the original opening method as should be in sash windows. I have a quote from "Edinburgh Sash and Case Company", and have already paid for the initial work of making the windows from scratch. The windows are due to be installed with great care and attention to detail in the middle of September 2026.
