This week there are only two meetings of the council, one a Development management committee meeting and the other a Cammo Estate Advisory Committee (which is not open to the public) both of which are being held on Wednesday 27 March 2013.
You can see the City of Edinburgh Council planning process in action in the recent BBC programme The Planners. Last week’s episode featured the Beach House Cafe and the proposal to extend the premises, contrary to the wishes of their upstairs neighbours.
