West Dunbartonshire Council’s online list of planning applications wasn’t updated for two months.
The last update was for the week ending August 16 despite the website saying they should be published weekly.
There have been two planning committee meetings considering applications in the two months without the web page being updated.
New applications were published after the Reporter contacted the council, but they offered no comment on why it had taken two months.

Their web page states: “Our weekly lists are added on a Tuesday which will contain applications validated the previous week, effectively a week behind.”
These weekly lists contain a note of recently registered applications, a list of proposal or application notices and tree works applications, and the list of recent decisions.
Planning lists provide the application numbers key to searching details of proposals in the council's website - and replying to them.
If you wish to comment on any new application, the council requests you do so within 14 days of the date on which the list was issued.
