Dear Ms Logan

Thank you for your email request for information regarding Council
commercial units in the city centre ward dated 17th May 2009.

Please find attached a list of properties which details 68 properties of
which 4 are vacant. The 4 properties have been vacant for more than 6
months.

Planning records show that none of these units have been subject to a
change of use planning application.

I trust this answers your information request.

If you are not happy with this, or want to complain about the way in which
we have handled your application, please write to the Director of
Corporate Services, Level 2/7, Waverley Court, 4 East Market Street,
EDINBURGH EH8 8BG.

If, after you have received a reply from the Director of Corporate
Services, you remain dissatisfied, you may ask the Scottish Information
Commissioner to conduct a review. You can contact him at Scottish
Information Commissioner, Kinburn Castle, Doubledkyes Road, St Andrews,
Fife, KY16 8DS. Phone 01334 464 610, Fax: 01334 464 611, E-mail:
