Public Access Service Interruption
Due to required upgrades, there will be a loss of service for the Planning and Building Standards Public Access facility between the 07:00 Thursday 3rd of April and 18:00 Friday the 4th of April 2025.
This means there will be no access to the Building Standards register , to view live Planning Application details and associated documentation or submit comments relating to planning applications during this time.
Dangerous Buildings and Public Safety
Where it appears to the council that any building or structure is dangerous to the extent that the safety of the public is at risk, powers exist which enable the council to take action to render a building safe or have it removed.
In Dundee it is the responsibility of the Building Standards Section to implement such action. A 24-hour, seven-day week service, for such emergencies, is operated by the Planning Division.
