Certificate of appropriate alternative development appeals: form and guidance
How to make a certificate of appropriate alternative development planning appeal.
You have the right to make a certificate of appropriate alternative development appeal to Scottish Ministers where:
- you are/were a person with an interest in the land acquired, or being acquired (normally the owner/ex owner)
- you are/were the acquiring authority for the land in question
And where the planning authority:
- has issued a certificate you do not agree with
- has not issued a certificate within the timescale set on an application for such made by yourself
The attached guidance explains:
- what the appeals process is
- how to complete and submit your form
- how to get in touch
- how to submit documents electronically
Your appeal must be made within one month of the date of receipt of the certificate. Or within one month of the date the certificate should have been issued. You must also send copies of the appeal to the other party involved in the land aquisition and the planning authority.
There is no fee for this type of appeal. Everybody who participates in the process is normally expected to cover their own expenses.
This appeal can also be made using the ePlanning portal.
