Community and Enterprise Resources Planning and Economic Community and Enterprise Resources Planning and Economic Development Services Weekly List of Planning Applications List of planning applications registered by the Council for the week ending From : - 28/05/2018 To : 01/06/2018 The Planning Weekly List contains details of planning applications and proposals of application notices registered in the previous week. Note to Members: Proposal of application notices A ‘proposal of application notice’ is a notice that must be submitted to the Council, by the developer, at least 12 weeks before they submit an application for a major development. The notice explains what the proposal is and sets out what pre-application consultation they will carry out with the local community. Please note that at this stage, any comments which the public wish to make on such a notice should be made directly to the applicant or agent, not to the Council. If, however, any of the proposals described on the list as being a proposal of application notice raise key issues that you may wish to be considered during their future assessment, please contact the appropriate team leader/area manager within 10 days of the week-ending date at the appropriate area office. Planning applications If you have any queries on any of the applications contained in the list, please contact the appropriate team leader/area manager within 10 days of the week-ending date at the appropriate office. Applications identified as 'Delegated' shall be dealt with under these powers unless more than 5 objections are received. In such cases the application will be referred to an appropriate committee. In addition, a request to refer an application to committee should be directed to the area manager/team leader within 10 days of the week-ending date at the appropriate area office. A Member should only request that a team leader or manager consider referring a delegated application to committee if the Member still has concerns about an application after having discussed the matter with the team leader/area manager. Note for community councils and members of the public: If you wish further information on any planning application included in the list, please contact the case officer dealing with application . Officers can be contacted by phone on 03031231015 or by email [email protected].

We hold councils in Scotland to account and help them improve. We operate impartially and independently of councils and of the Scottish Government, and we meet and report in public. We expect councils to achieve the highest standards of governance and financial stewardship, and value for money in how they use their resources and provide their services. Our work includes: • securing and acting upon the external audit of Scotland’s councils and various joint boards and committees • assessing the performance of councils in relation to Best Value and community planning • carrying out national performance audits to help councils improve their services • requiring councils to publish information to help the public assess their performance. You can find out more about the work of the Accounts Commission on our website: www.audit-scotland.gov.uk/about-us/accounts-commission Audit Scotland is a statutory body set up in April 2000 under the Public Finance and Accountability (Scotland) Act 2000. We help the Auditor General for Scotland and the Accounts Commission check that organisations spending public money use it properly, efficiently and effectively.
