It is not for this development brief to repeat these principles but to further develop them to respond to this area of the framework, known as Block 10. 1.2 The purpose of the development brief is to set out the main planning and development principles on which development proposals for the area should be based. The development brief will be a material consideration in the determination of planning applications that come forward for the area. 2.0 Site and context The Site 2.1 The development brief area is situated at the eastern end of the city centre and is the least typical of all the development blocks within the CCPSDF area.

It will form the basis of a document creating the most important development parameters for the site. This document will be formalised by way of a Development Brief containing all main development aspects and will be offered to CEC planning department for endorsement Engagement commitment • Inclusion – NHS Lothian is seeking to engage with all stakeholders to provide the widest range of interests the opportunity to provide their opinions.
