Planning application

Liberton Fire Station 19 Kirk Brae Edinburgh EH16 6HH

Awaiting decision City of Edinburgh 25/02427/VAR2 Second Variation

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

Non-material variation application to 25/02427/FUL. Remove existing masonry wall down to the higher ground level and add a new concrete coping to the remaining wall; Install metal posts and security fence panels to the areas NOT adjacent to the existing properties; Masonry directly adjacent to the existing properties is to be made good. Note this may prove impossible and in which case approval from the property owners will be sought to replace those sections with security fencing also; Replace all existing and proposed palisade fencing to the west and north sides with security mesh fencing for consistency.

As published by the council, reference 25/02427/VAR2
