SUBJECT TO APPROVAL Present Drew Russell (DR) Chair Cllr Alison Evison Aberdeenshire Council (AE) Sharon Park (SP) Secretary Cllr Ian Mollison Aberdeenshire Council (IM) Henry Irvine-Fortescue (HIF) Vice-Chair Bob McKinney (BM) Treasurer Colin Pike (CP) Planning Avril Tulloch (AT) Laureen Canessa (LC) Also in attendance NTR Drew Russell chaired the meeting; there were 22 members of the public (MoP) present. 1 Apologies Susan Astell 2 Minute of the previous meeting The draft minute of the June meeting were proposed by AT and seconded by HIF 3 Police Report Police Sgt Neil Grant presented the Police Report. Crime levels remain low in the area, with only 41 reports having been made in the period since the last report. Sgt Grant encouraged everyone to respond to Police Scotla nd’s ongoing service survey. He touched on the recent road traffic operations, with 5 individuals being caught speeding and 5 others stopped for mobile phone related offences. A longer discussion ensued wrt recent issues concerning unofficial camps set up by the traveling community within our area. Sgt Grant outlined the various accountabilities of landowners, Police Scotland and the local authorities. Sgt Grant was very clear in the need to be respectful of everyone’s chosen ways of life and warned against the advisability of anyone “taking the law into their own hands.” Page 1 of 5 North Kincardine Rural Community Council (NKRCC) Minutes 20-June-16 4 Matters Arising 5.2 Meeting with Director of Infrastructure Services DR, CP and HIF had, with the Director of Infrastructure Services and various AC representatives concerned with the AWPR, at Woodhill House on the 8th of August. NKRCC expressed our ongoing concerns and frustrations wrt AC’s lack of response to the concerns raised both by the CC and by the wider community and also the general lack of communication. Again we discussed repairs to the local roads network, impact on those living nearby including Sunday working and the overall impact on the environment. AC intimated that they were about to commission bitumen plants across the work site. Unfortunately AC was not in a position to confirm the exact locations – this is something they promised to follow-up with. The one positive action that AC intimated was the imminent signature of new contracts in relation to local road network repairs. We did highlight that this was intimated as being imminent back in April! 11.3 Data Protection In line with the agreement at the June meeting, DR has drafted a letter to AC and returned the £35 allowance. 5 Roads 5.1 General Again concerns were raised with regard to general road maintenance and traffic management issues. White lining of the road junction of SDR and Maryculter Bridge has been completed – but almost instantly obliterated. Representation has also been made to AC wrt extending the temporary 30mph limit towards the Deeside Caravan Park. Concerns have also been highlighted to AC wrt potential damage caused to Maryculter Bridge by the December flooding. The response from AC was that the entire bridge infrastructure was the responsibility of ACC. 5.2 AWPR A general discussion took place wrt to issues and frustrations, including measures for controlling dust during periods of dry weather. The AWPR team, including the Managing Agent, have been invited to present an update to our September meeting. 6 Schools School bbq has been rescheduled 27 August School AGM will be on 31 August 7 Website & Social Media Due to the roads presentation social media was not read out but was as follows: 7.1 Website Page 2 of 5 North Kincardine Rural Community Council (NKRCC) Minutes 20-June-16 Jun, total visitors 477, average 16 Jul, total visitors 352, average 11 Aug, total visitors 469, average 15 Best to date still January 2016 with 1,100 total visitors, average 36. 7.2 Facebook Page likes now at new high of 155. 7.3 Twitter 8 Planning 8.1 New Applications Application Details APP/2016/2071 Full Planning Permission for Erection of Dwellinghouse (Change of House Type) of Previously Approved S010504PF Land To The South Of, 2 Nether Ashentilly Cottage, Maryculter, Aberdeen APP/2016/2084 Prior Notification for Alterations and Extension to Existing Agricultural Building South Rothnick, Netherley, Stonehaven, Aberdeenshire, AB39 3QX APP/2016/2205 Full Planning Permission for Erect Floodlights at Outdoor Riding Arena (Retrospective) Land At, Netherley Grange, Netherley, Stonehaven, Aberdeenshire, AB39 3QN APP/2016/2211 Prior Notification for Erection of Agricultural Building Land To The North Of , Bogfon Farm, Maryculter, AB12 5GR APP/2016/2230 Full Planning Permission for Change of Use of Rough Grazing Ground to Recreational Field For Flying Model Aircraft, Non Compliance with Condition 6 (Hours of Operation) of Planning Permission C/235/88 Aberdeen Aeromodellers Club, Airfield At Hare Moss, Banchory Devenick, Aberdeenshire APP/2016/2232 Full Planning Permission for Extension to Model Aircraft Flying Field Non Compliance with Condition 6 (Hours of Operation) of Planning Permission C/578/90 Aberdeen Aeromodellers Club, Airfield At Hare Moss, Banchory Devenick, Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire Page 3 of 5 North Kincardine Rural Community Council (NKRCC) Minutes 20-June-16 9 Finance & 400 Club 9.1 Reserves NKRCC have £2,099 in the bank, of which £385 is allocated for future 400 Club cash prizes 9.2 Awards A request has been made by the Youth Café to contribute towards the purchase and installation of a weight training bench and cross trainer as a commemoration for Bailey Gwynne.

This will be a free full day event, catering included, on Friday, 30 September 2016 from 10 am until 4 pm in the Dicks on Hall, Laurencekirk. Our intention is to invite community groups and organisations to a training/information session with Social Investment Scotland (SIS). Social investment, unlike grants or donations, is when charitable organisations such as Page 4 of 5 North Kincardine Rural Community Council (NKRCC) Minutes 20-June-16 social enterprises receive a loan which they later repay. Loans can be used in a variety of ways, from buying equipment, to renting property, to expanding or replicating the business in some way. There is an opportunity for us to support Kincardine and Mearns community initiatives with the significant loan funding available to SIS. It can be difficult for charities and social enterprises to obtain loans from mainstream banks. Social investment funds provided by organisations such as Social Investment Scotland have helped to fill this void to support growth in charities, community organisations and social enterprises. As a group who are involved in a community initiative or project with the potential to be requiring grant funding or financial support this is a good opportunity for you to look at what funding opportunities are available. In addition to SIS we will also have a range of local organisations who work locally to support community projects also available to discuss your project wi th you. 01-Aug-16 Lesley Robertson Community Planning Officer K & M Aberdeenshire Council Transport Scotland Funding Opportunity Transport Scotland’s Pre-Application Support Fund (PASF) is now open for applications. PASF is offering funding of up to £10,000 to help public, community and third sector organisations develop ideas for the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) Low Carbon Travel and Transport (LCTT) Challenge Fund. 11 AOCB 11.1 Broadband SP to request to Roddy Mathieson (BT) to attend a future meeting and to make neighbouring CCs aware of the date of his attendance - once confirmed. 11.2 North East Open Studios 2016 Booklets available for uplift from HIF. 12 Next Meeting Next regular monthly meeting will be at 7.30pm on Monday 19th September 2016 at Lairhillock School. There being no further business, the meeting finished at 21.10. Page 5 of 5 .

  • 3 Alternatives Considered
    Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route Environmental Statement Part A: The Scheme 3 Alternatives Considered 3.1 Introduction 3.1.1 This chapter provides an outline of the development of the AWPR including an overview of the assessment work that has been undertaken in the selection of a preferred route and a summary of the objectives of the proposed scheme. 3.2 Background 3.2.1 As described in Chapter 2 (Need for the Scheme), a peripheral route around Aberdeen has been considered since the 1950s, and in the 1990s a western leg route corridor was proposed (the Western Peripheral Route; WPR). The WPR as identified by Grampian Regional Council and its successor authorities was subsequently extended to link with the A90 north of Aberdeen by NESTRANS. The route corridor comprising the WPR and this additional link was named the AWPR and in April 2003 was adopted and promoted by the Scottish Executive as a Trunk Road within a funding partnership of the Scottish Executive, Aberdeen City Council, and Aberdeenshire Council. 3.2.2 The AWPR was refined within this corridor from April 2003 until December 2004, when Transport Scotland requested that consideration be given to additional corridors. In December 2005, following consideration of the alternative corridors, including public consultation held in Spring 2005, the Minister for Transport announced that the AWPR would be taken forward on the Milltimber Brae Route with a Fastlink to Stonehaven. 3.2.3 Various options have been considered at each of the stages described above. The option consideration process included production of many reports and papers that set out the engineering, economic and environmental advantages and disadvantages of alternative routes and corridors.

  • 32 Vehicle Travellers
    Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route Environmental Statement Part C: Southern Leg 32 Vehicle Travellers This chapter assesses the impact on vehicle travellers in terms of view from the road and driver stress. The expected views for travellers during a journey along the Southern Leg are described and compared with those gained from the existing A90(T). The majority of views from the road would be enclosed by mitigation planting and short sections of deep cuttings through Cleanhill and Milltimber, but elsewhere a range of attractive, rural views across rolling farmland will provide a pleasant journey for drivers in contrast to the enclosed urban views currently experienced along the A90 through Aberdeen. Driver stress is caused by frustration, fear of a potential accident and uncertainty of the route which is being followed. Current levels of driver stress for the existing road network during peak hours are generally Moderate or Low, except on the northbound A956 Charleston to Altens where stress is assessed as High. Driver stress over the majority of the network in the vicinity of the Southern leg would remain the same with the proposed scheme in place, with overall Low driver stress predicted for vehicle travellers on the Southern Leg. 32.1 Introduction 32.1.1 This chapter presents an assessment of the impact on vehicle travellers in terms of view from the road and driver stress for the Southern Leg of the proposed scheme. 32.1.2 View from the road is defined as the extent to which vehicle travellers are exposed to different types of scenery through which the proposed scheme passes.

  • The Cairngorm Club Journal
    THE BLUE HILL. BY ALEXANDER CRUICKSHANK, LL.D., Vice-President, AND ALEXANDER COPLAND, Ex-Chairman. WE do not propose in this paper to write of the lofty Cairn- gorm which dominates Glen More, but to direct attention to the eminence nearer home which has somehow got almost its Saxon titular equivalent. This explanation at once dis- poses of any false expectations—or, at all events, should do so. How, when, and why this part of the Grampian ridge, which passes through the parish of Banchory-Devenick about four and a half miles S.S.W. of Aberdeen—and there shuts out from view the interesting and ancient inheritance of Dugald Dalgetty, namely, Drumthwhacket—obtained its cerulean distinctive title—the Blue Hill—we have been at pains to endeavour to trace, but our success, truth to say, has not been commensurate with the labour and travail we have devoted to the quest. The reason appears to be that those whose business it was to record, for the benefit of future generations, this vital and important explanation have culpably neglected to do so. Our earliest topographical writer, James Gordon, Parson of Rothiemay—whose name we mention with unfeigned respect, generated of admiration for his rare talents and useful geographical works—did not foresee our difficulty, or we feel sure he would have obviated it. He described the " feilds nixt to the gaits of the citie ", [Aberdeen] as being " fruitfull of corns, such as oats, beir, quheat", &c., but, remember, that was within a zone or belt of a mile round the town.

This letter provides further updated advice from SNH, but should also be read in conjunction with our previous response of 9 th March 2007. Background The proposal involves the construction of a new 46km trunk road with Special Road status, bypassing Aberdeen to the west between Charleston in the south and Blackdog in the north and creating a fastlink between Stonehaven in the south and Cleanhill. The route comprises 3 sections: Northern Leg, Southern Leg and the Fastlink. The ES published in September 2007, provides further detailed information on the southern leg and fastlink, as well as amendments made to the northern leg, with additional information on the cumulative assessment for the entire route. We are pleased to note a number of issues raised in our letter of 9 th March have been addressed.
