Planning application

50 Durham Avenue Edinburgh EH15 1RY

Granted City of Edinburgh 23/03128/CLP Certificate of Lawfulness (proposed)

Permission granted. Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses.

Proposal

I have been advised by the Scottish Childminding Association that I am required to apply for a Certificate of Lawfulness as I intend to start a childminding business in my own home. The childminding service will be for up to 5 children and be primarily based in a spare bedroom of my house - the children will also have access to the kitchen, downstairs toilet and enclosed back garden.

As published by the council, reference 23/03128/CLP
