Planning applications lodged with the council’s planning department up to this week are detailed in the list embedded below.

There are no large scale applications, but a couple of developers who want to build around 20 homes each on two sites as detailed below.

And a reminder that there is a public consultation event about the new plans for Centrum House on Dundas Street to build a Dakota Hotel there.

Any property owner seeking to build, improve or alter their home or commercial premises must have the correct consents. This begins with a planning application and usually progresses all the way to a completion certificate.

Some applications for large developments such as purpose built student accommodation have been referred to the government Reporter after refusal by the council. Alterations to some buildings may also need listed building consent which is dealt with simultaneously.

There is a class of alterations which are considered “permitted developments” and will not need any planning permission. There is more guidance here.
