  • 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.

  • Education & Children's Services Proposal
    Education and Children’s Services EDUCATION & CHILDREN’S SERVICES PROPOSAL DOCUMENT: AUGUST 2015 ABERDEENSHIRE SCHOOLS ENHANCED PROVISION A) THE RELOCATION OF NEWTONHILL SCHOOL ENHANCED PROVISION CENTRE TO PORTLETHEN SCHOOL, PORTLETHEN AND B) THE ESTABLISHMENT OF AN ENHANCED PROVISION CENTRE AT MILL O’ FOREST SCHOOL, STONEHAVEN 1 Proposal for Statutory Consultation A) THE RELOCATION OF NEWTONHILL SCHOOL ENHANCED PROVISION CENTRE TO PORTLETHEN SCHOOL, PORTLETHEN AND B) THE ESTABLISHMENT OF AN ENHANCED PROVISION CENTRE AT MILL O’ FOREST SCHOOL, STONEHAVEN SUMMARY PROPOSAL Enhanced provision across Aberdeenshire has been reviewed and a nine area model is currently being implemented during 2014-16. (See pages 9-11 Section 4 Educational Benefits Statement 4.6.1 – 4.6.4) Each cluster will have a primary and a secondary Enhanced Provision Centre and each Area will have a Community Resource Hub. The aim is to provide support for all learners in the local schools through universal and targeted support and to ensure that Enhanced Provision is located where the need is greatest. At present the Enhanced Provision Centre for the Portlethen and Stonehaven cluster is located at Newtonhill School, Newtonhill. It is proposed that the primary Enhanced Provision Centre at Newtonhill will be relocated to Portlethen Primary School where the need is greatest. The only remaining cluster without primary Enhanced Provision is Stonehaven and the proposal is to develop a new primary Enhanced Provision Centre at Mill O’ Forest School, Stonehaven. The new Enhanced Provision model aims to increase capacity at a school and cluster level for all learners to ensure greater consistency of, and equity of access to, an improved quality of provision across the authority.

  • KN001 Land at Burnside Croft, Drumlithie
    ABERDEENSHIRE LOCAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2021 LAND AT BURNSIDE CROFT DRUMLITHIE PROPOSED SMALL SCALE HOUSING SITE Introduction The welcomes the opportunity of early engagement with Aberdeenshire Council regarding the preparation of the next Local Development Plan. In this regard the has been commissioned by to bring to the attention of the Planning Authority the opportunity for a limited extension of the settlement boundary of Drumlithie. A site plan accompanies this ‘bid’. Background The site was considered through the Examination process associated with the current Local Development Plan. In this regard it is useful to consider the comments of the Reporter. He concluded: “4. This modest triangular site falls within the protected land designation P1, which is intended “to conserve the woodland corridor and amenity area for the village”. The site does have a rather unkempt appearance, and given it relates well to the village and site OP1 I consider that a modest development which retained the trees adjacent to the burn, together with the two mature trees on the western boundary of the site, would not compromise the integrity of the P1 designation. 5. Whilst I find the site does have some planning merit, the inclusion of this site is unjustified as a structured environmental assessment process has not been undertaken, nor is there evidence of public engagement, contrary to paragraph 118 of Circular 6/2013 ‘Development Planning’. On this basis no modifications are recommended. There is however scope for a small‐scale proposal on the site to be considered through the development management process, in the context of policy R2.” Clearly, the Reporter had some sympathy for my client.

The hotel was surrounded by a very large garden full of greenery and, as in many other parts of the world, it was used for the wedding photographs. Now, being Ethiopia, we are not talking about (relatively) well behaved groups of relatives being marshalled into formal groups.

  • THE PINNING STONES Culture and Community in Aberdeenshire
    THE PINNING STONES Culture and community in Aberdeenshire When traditional rubble stone masonry walls were originally constructed it was common practice to use a variety of small stones, called pinnings, to make the larger stones secure in the wall. This gave rubble walls distinctively varied appearances across the country depend- ing upon what local practices and materials were used.

  • Read Full Press Release
    NOT FOR BROADCAST OR PUBLICATION BEFORE 00:01 MONDAY 30 MAY 2016 The annual Bank of Scotland Seaside Town Review tracks house price movements in 59 seaside towns in Scotland. The review is based on house price data from Registers of Scotland for the period 2005 to 2015. HOUSE PRICES IN SCOTLAND’S SEASIDE TOWNS RISE BY £348 PER MONTH IN PAST DECADE The average house price in Scotland's seaside towns has grown by £348 per month since 2005, according to the latest Bank of Scotland Seaside Towns Review. Over the past decade, the average price has grown by 39%, from £108,449 to £150,210 – exceeding the 32% increase for all seaside towns in Britain. Seven of the top ten coastal towns with the biggest price increases are located in Aberdeenshire, which for much of the period has been well served by the growth in the oil and gas sector. Fraserburgh has seen the greatest level of house price growth with a rise of 139% from £63,540 in 2005 to £151,719 in 2015, equivalent to a monthly increase of £735. Macduff also recorded a doubling on average property values (102%) from £66,226 to £133,567, followed by Peterhead (95%), Cove Bay (94%) and Newtonhill (91%). (Table 1) Lerwick in the Shetlands saw the second biggest growth amongst Scottish seaside towns, rising by £81,812 to £159, 325 – an increase of 106%. Other towns outside Aberdeenshire with the largest price increases include Millport (84%) and Campbeltown (69%). A further 22 coastal towns – out of the 59 surveyed – have recorded price increases of at least 50% since 2005.
