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.

David Hume Tower 40 George Square Southside Edinburgh EH8 9LL
Proposals for 40 George Square with the focus shifting to stabilisation and consolidation of the facade for health & safety reasons. We are currently in early stages of exploring options for this which includes a light gauge stainless steel open mesh system offering robust protection against slate failure. This would be tension tight to the slate and windows to secure the fabric and would cover the principle elevations.
