Publicity for planning applications
Last updated | 04/11/2011
Some types of application require to be publicly
advertised. Such adverts will generally appear in The
Perthshire Advertiser on Fridays and, in limited cases,
also in the Edinburgh Gazette. The table below shows
which applications are advertised together with the
different time periods allowed for comments to be submitted. Where
neighbours are notified, they must submit any comments within 21
days from the date of their notification letter, or by the expiry
date of the advert, whichever is the later.
