  • Caithness and Sutherland Proposed Local Development Plan Committee Version November, 2015
    Caithness and Sutherland Proposed Local Development Plan Committee Version November, 2015 Proposed CaSPlan The Highland Council Foreword Foreword Foreword to be added after PDI committee meeting The Highland Council Proposed CaSPlan About this Proposed Plan About this Proposed Plan The Caithness and Sutherland Local Development Plan (CaSPlan) is the second of three new area local development plans that, along with the Highland-wide Local Development Plan (HwLDP) and Supplementary Guidance, will form the Highland Council’s Development Plan that guides future development in Highland. The Plan covers the area shown on the Strategy Map on page 3). CaSPlan focuses on where development should and should not occur in the Caithness and Sutherland area over the next 10-20 years. Along the north coast the Pilot Marine Spatial Plan for the Pentland Firth and Orkney Waters will also influence what happens in the area. This Proposed Plan is the third stage in the plan preparation process. It has been approved by the Council as its settled view on where and how growth should be delivered in Caithness and Sutherland. However, it is a consultation document which means you can tell us what you think about it. It will be of particular interest to people who live, work or invest in the Caithness and Sutherland area. In preparing this Proposed Plan, the Highland Council have held various consultations. These included the development of a North Highland Onshore Vision to support growth of the marine renewables sector, Charrettes in Wick and Thurso to prepare whole-town visions and a Call for Sites and Ideas, all followed by a Main Issues Report and Additional Sites and Issues consultation.

SNH intends to de-designate Duartbeg as a Natural Nature Reserve as it does not meet conditions for interpretation and paths; it still retains its SSSI protections. It is difficult for the Geopark to apply for charitable status because some of its activities are money-making; it should be possible to overcome this. Phil Jones from Assynt has queried the fact that there is only 1 representative from Assynt on the Geopark Board; there are 10 people on the Board – 6 from area Community Councils and 4 who are appointed but not designated by region.

The minutes were approved. 2.0 Matters arising from the Minutes of the 25th October 2016 2.1 Various Oldshoremore matters Alexander Munro’s plans for developing camping facilities are still in an early stage and there are no updates. The community council agree in principle, but are concerned that it is a big project and may be too big. Notifying the neighbours about the plans applies to those living within twenty metres of the boundary. There were concerns that individuals living nearby would not be aware of the plans until the planning goes out at which point they could then comment. Cows on the Machair may go against regulations with SNH. Graham agreed to contact SNH, the Machair being an SSSI. Cows on the beach at Oldshoremore should require permission from the landowners (the Osbornes). Responsibility for the cows and their interaction with the public lies with their owner, Mr. Alexander Munro. ‘Drive with Caution’ signs were considered an option for the stretch of road between Kinlochbervie and Oldshoremore. 1 APPROVED 27/02/2017 Action Who? 1 Enquiries with Garry Cameron re planning Margaret document for Mr.

ROB DONN MACKAY: FINDING THE MUSIC IN THE SONGS Ellen L. Beard Degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Edinburgh 2015 ABSTRACT AND LAY SUMMARY This thesis explores the musical world and the song compositions of eighteenth-century Sutherland Gaelic bard Rob Donn MacKay (1714-1778). The principal focus is musical rather than literary, aimed at developing an analytical model to reconstruct how a non-literate Gaelic song-maker chose and composed the music for his songs. In that regard, the thesis breaks new ground in at least two ways: as the first full-length study of the musical work of Rob Donn, and as the first full-length musical study of any eighteenth-century Scottish Gaelic poet. Among other things, it demonstrates that a critical assessment of Rob Donn merely as a “poet” seriously underestimates his achievement in combining words and music to create a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts.

It is considered that the proposal accords with the principles and policies contained within the Development Plan and is acceptable in terms of all other applicable material considerations. Recommendation Members are asked to agree the recommendation to Grant planning permission as set out in section 11 of the report. 1. BACKGROUND/ PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT 1.1 The application seeks consent for the formation of a ‘glamping site’ as detailed on Section 1.2 below. The proposed development has previously been granted consent under planning reference 17/03385/FUL which was issued in September 2017. Following the commencement of works on site it came to light that the address noted on the original planning decision notice was incorrect (being some distance away) therefore the applicant was invited to submit a further application to regularise the situation. This previous application was dealt with under delegated powers however as noted in representations, the application was advertised with the wrong address which would have prejudiced the opportunity for third parties to make comments had they wished to do so.
