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 trees applications
How this application type works
Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.

Replacement driveway gates due to existing ones being in a dilapidated state, exacerbated by recent wind damage. I am trying to keep the appearance very close to the existing appearance, so the dimensions and opening direction are the same, and style and general colour are being kept as close to the existing ones as is feasible (same railheads etc.). The new material would be composite but should have the same effect as the existing wood infill.
