    Development Management Sub Committee Wednesday 28 October 2020 Application for Planning Permission 20/03336/FUL at 1 Waverley Bridge, Edinburgh, EH1 1BQ. Pop-up event on mall roof, consisting of canvas tipi bar and food truck. Decorated with festoon lighting (as amended). Item number Report number Wards B11 - City Centre Summary This temporary commercial development will contribute to the city centre's vitality and role as a strategic business and regional shopping centre. Whilst the site is within a prominent location, the proposal will clearly be a temporary addition associated with the festive season and relatively contained within Waverley Mall's roofscape. As a time limited temporary development, the proposal will not have a significant or long term detrimental effect on the special character or appearance of the conservation area or detrimental impact on the Outstanding Universal Value of the Edinburgh World Heritage Site or setting of the surrounding listed buildings. As such, the development complies with the Development Plan. There are no material considerations which outweigh this conclusion.
