COUNCIL CHANGE OF ADVICE SCUPPERS STEAD'S PLACE CONSULTATION

Submitted by Editor on

An abrupt change of advice from City of Edinburgh Council means Leith Central Community Council’s meeting on 17 August has been cancelled.

The event – the first ‘properly constituted’ meeting of its kind since March – was to have been held in the Out of the Blue Drill Hall under strict social-distancing arrangements.

It was planned on the basis of Council advice issued on 6 July saying physical meetings were now possible under Scottish Government guidelines.

The Grace Church, Leith seeks planning permission for a change of use from Class 11 (Assembly and leisure) to a church (Class 10 Non-residential institution) at 3 Shrubhill Walk (20/02825/FUL).

The 1,232 sqm property was originally designed within the People for Places development as a replacement venue for the Edinburgh Masonic Club in 2018, but has remained empty since 2019.
