  • How Board Could Meet Savings Target a BROAD Outline of How NHS Lion Were Required
    THE NHS HIGHLAND STAFF NEWSPAPER June 2016 HighNOVEMBERlights 2015 LONELINESS Four pupils of Drakies Primary School, Inverness, provided the highlight of the most recent meeting of NHS Highland’s board, when they gave a talk on the school’s recently launched community café and on how it is helping to address the wider issue of loneliness and social isolation. The pupils, who were accompanied by headteacher Michelle Taylor, were asked to give the presentation after the school’s participation in the launch of NHS Highland’s ‘Reach Out’ campaign, which is encouraging people to “make a difference for someone who’s lonely”. As well as giving a short speech, the pupils an- swered questions by members of the board, and also asked questions about the Reach Out campaign. For more on Reach Out, see pages 6 and 7.

  • Applicant Has Sought Planning Permission in Principal for a Total of 24 Residential Units Under a Separate Application (19/00982/FUL)
    Agenda Item 6.9 Report No PLS/097/19 HIGHLAND COUNCIL Committee: South Planning Applications Committee Date: 04 December 2019 Report Title: 19/00982/FUL: Mr R Matheson Land 35M East Of 38 Old Perth Road Inverness Report By: Area Planning Manager – South Purpose/Executive Summary Description: Formation of access road to serve residential development comprising 24 dwellings Ward: 16 – Inverness Millburn Development category: Local Reason referred to Committee: Objection from Community Council and 5 or more timeous objections from separate addresses Recommendation Members are asked to agree the recommendation to Grant planning permission as set out in section 11 of the report. 1. PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT 1.1 The application seeks planning permission for an access road to residential development. The applicant has sought planning permission in principal for a total of 24 residential units under a separate application (19/00982/FUL). 1.2 Access to the site is proposed from Old Perth Road with a new junction formed by realigning and relocating an existing access. 1.3 The Service is not aware of the applicant having undertaken any public consultation. The applicant has not approached the Service for pre-application advice via the pre-application advice service. A party understood to be acting on behalf of the applicant approached the Service for clarification following the withdrawal of the previous application (18/02818/FUL) for the same proposal. In response officers provided advice on the potential access to the site, which noted: Anticipated Access - The optimum access is through the Raigmore Motel site but would likely require its demolition (and partial redevelopment) and is in a separate ownership, hence the mixed use allocation.
