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.

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.

  • Council Emergency Response to Recent Storms and Electricity Outage
    The Highland Council Agenda 4. Item Caithness & Sutherland Area Committee – 10 February 2015 Report CS/01/ No 15 Council Emergency Response to recent Storms and Electricity Outage Report by Head of Policy and Reform Summary This report provides information on the Council’s involvement and reaction to the recent storm and power outages affecting large areas of both Caithness and Sutherland. 1. Background 1.1 Highland Council along with other first responders form part of a Highlands & Islands Emergency Planning Group. This in turn is broken down into 5 Emergency Liaising Groups (ELG). The North ELG covers Caithness and Sutherland. Members of this ELG are Police Scotland, The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service, Highland Council, NHS, Scottish Ambulance Service, SEPA. 1.2 Thursday 8 January 2015 Following severe weather warnings and indication from Scottish & Southern Electricity that there was potential for power outages a North ELG was called on the morning. This was led by the local Police Scotland Inspector and included attendance from Highland Council, SEPA, SSE, and NHS. The purpose of this meeting was to ensure all relevant personnel were on call and appraised of the current situation in readiness. 2. Emergency Response 2.1 Friday 9 January 2015 A North ELG was convened at 9:30am with all the first responders in attendance along with SSE. At this stage it was unclear as to the extent of the power outages and the main issues at that time were fallen trees causing blocked roads. Community Services were stretched for a time but dealt well especially in opening key roads.
