What happens while it is decided
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 heritage and listed buildings applications
How this application type works
Heritage applications concern listed buildings and conservation areas. Listed building consent is needed for works, inside or out, that affect the special interest of a listed building, and carrying out such works without consent is a criminal offence. The council weighs harm to the heritage asset against any public benefit of the proposal.

05/01596/VAR2 Awaiting decision
Granton Park Avenue (Madelvic Works And Land Adjacent To Madelvic House) Edinburgh EH5 1HS
Details as noted on drawings: 1) The adjacent Artworks development has been designed with new public realm + pedestrian connectivity to Waterfront Avenue as shown on site plan. It is proposed to omit the pend from 05/01596 to coordinate with this. National Galleries design is to route pedestrians past the Artworks frontage to activate this space + the public realm provided between the sites. 2) 05/01596 envisiaged retail/shops units in the commercial space. However there is insufficient demand for this use in this location. It is propsoed to adjust the commercial space floor levels/layouts/windows to suit a wider range of commercial uses. It is still envisaged that the lower ground floor units will be retail, but the variation makes the upper floors also suitable for a range of other uses including studio, arts, community, and office use.
