  • Craigmillar Park Conservation Area Character Appraisal Review PDF 2
    Planning Committee Craigmillar Park Conservation Area Character Appraisal Review 2.00pm, Wednesday, 29 January 2020 Executive/routine Wards 15 – Southside/Newington Council Commitments 15 1. Recommendations 1.1 It is recommended that Committee approves the revised Craigmillar Park Conservation Area Character Appraisal (CACA). Paul Lawrence Executive Director of Place Contact: Iain McFarlane, Service Manager, Place Development E-mail: [email protected] | Tel: 0131 529 2419 Report Craigmillar Park Conservation Area Character Appraisal Review 2. Executive Summary 2.1 On 22 August 2018, Planning Committee approved an updated programme of review of the existing conservation area character appraisals. This report presents the revised Craigmillar Park Conservation Area Character Appraisal (CACA). The revised appraisal has been the subject of consultation with the Craigmillar Park Association and the Grange and Prestonfield Community Council. 3. Background 3.1 It is a statutory requirement in terms of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) (Scotland) Act 1997 for local authorities to periodically review conservation area boundaries and consider whether new conservation area designations are appropriate. 3.2 On 22 August 2018, Planning Committee approved an updated programme of review of the existing CACAs. This was based on the age of the character appraisal, with the earliest being given priority, and development pressure, based on the number of applications submitted for planning permission and the extent of recent housing development. 3.3 The resulting priority conservation areas were: South Side, Marchmont and Meadows, Colinton, Merchiston and Greenhill, West End, Coltbridge and Wester Coates, Craigmillar Park and Morningside. Trinity Conservation Area was added to the priority list due to local community requests for a review of the boundary of the area.
