3. CONSIDER NOTICE OF REVIEW REQUEST: 50 CHARLOTTE STREET,
HELENSBURGH, G84 7SR (REF:  24/0005/LRB) 
The Chair, Councillor Green, welcomed everyone to the meeting.  He explained that no
person present would be entitled to speak other than the Members of the Local Review
Body (LRB) and Mr Jackson, who would provide procedural advice if required. 
Having noted that the Roads Department had not received an opportunity to comment on
the Notice of Review Request, the Chair invited Mr Jackson to address the LRB in this
regard.   
Mr Jackson outlined the procedure that is followed upon receipt of a Notice of Review
Request and advised that while the information was provided to the Roads Department as
a Statutory Consultee in respect of this case, it had been sent to an email address which
was no longer monitored.  He advised that following the outcome of the first calling, the
Planning authority had sought feedback from the Roads Department in order to prepare
the draft conditions as requested, and it became apparent at this point that the Roads
Department were unaware of the Request.  Mr Jackson advised that the Roads
Department had since provided a response to the initial request, and outlined the
procedure that should be followed should Members be so minded to accept it into the
process at this stage.   
The Chair, Councillor Green asked whether Members felt it was appropriate to accept the
response from the Roads Department at this stage in the process. 
Both Councillors Irvine and McCabe advised that they did consider it appropriate to
consider the input from Roads and that they would be happy to accept it at this stage in
the process. 
Having noted the wishes of the Local Review Body, Mr Jackson advised that in order to
consider this information, the response from the Roads Department would be provided to
the Applicant’s Agent, who would then have 14 days to comment.  He further advised that

the responses from both the Roads Department and the Applicant’s Agent would form part
of the Agenda pack for the next calling of the Local Review Body to consider the case.   
With no one being otherwise minded, this became the decision of the Local Review Body.   
Decision 
The Argyll and Bute Local Review Body unanimously agreed to continue consideration of
the Notice of Review Request to a future date, to be confirmed by Committee Services, to
allow for the Roads response to be considered by the Applicant’s Agent and for the
Applicant’s Agent to provide comments.
