Planning application
86 Greenbank Road Edinburgh EH10 5RJ
Works: Loft or dormer Roofing
Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.
Proposal
Non Material Variation - Alteration of the mansard roof section as shown in drawing (23)013_(PL)120 - proposed roof plan - to an apex roof with a zinc ridge and hip flashing. This allows for simpler and more in keeping construction whilst retaining an equivalent ridge height to comparable properties in the vicinity. It also allows for increased southern exposed roof space to facilitate PV solar array to be installed.

The process from here
This application is with City of Edinburgh for determination. The council publicises it, consults neighbours and technical bodies where required, and weighs the responses against local and national planning policy.
The statutory target is eight weeks for most applications and thirteen for major development, though extensions of time are common. Comments carry most weight while the case is undecided, so check the council portal for the deadline if you want to respond.
About conditions applications
How this application type works
This type of application deals with conditions attached to an existing permission, either by supplying the details a condition requires, called discharging it, or by asking to vary or remove one. It does not reopen the principle of the permission itself. Building often cannot lawfully start, or continue past a set stage, until the named conditions are discharged.
