the proposals.
We understand
that this report was commissioned by
Mountgrange following comments by City of Edinburgh Council.
http:// citydev-
portal. edin burgh. gov.uk / portal / getEdmDoc?docid=55580066&ext=pdf
We did not commission any independent structural reports as the
information submitted to us was not in doubt and further structural reports
were, therefore, not considered necessary.
The structural information
submitted in support of the applications was made available to our
consultants whom we commissioned to carry out an independent
development assessment.
I hope this is helpful:
Yours sincerely
