POLICY OVERVIEW ‘Argyll and Bute Structure Plan’ 2002 STRAT DC 1 – Gives encouragement within the Minor Settlements to small scale development which is compatible with an essentially rural settlement location on appropriate infill, rounding-off and redevelopment sites; in exceptional cases medium or large scale development may be supported. STRAT DC 8 – Seeks to resist development which, by reason of location, siting, scale, form, design or cumulative impact, damages or undermines the key environmental features of a visually contained or wider landscape or coastscape. STRAT DC 9 – Seeks to resist development that damages or undermines the historic, architectural or cultural qualities of the historic environment. ‘Islay, Jura and Colonsay Local Plan’ 1985 and (1 st review & alteration) 1988 POL RUR 1 – Seeks to resist prominent or sporadic development which would have an adverse environmental impact upon the Jura National Scenic Area. POL RUR 2 – Sets out the criteria against which the Council will assess development proposals within the Jura National Scenic Area. POL TOUR 1 – States that the Council will continue to support tourism in the islands and will encourage appropriate developments which assist in the achievement of this objective. POL TOUR 3 – Gives encouragement to the development of tourism development provided that they do not conflict with either the landscape quality of the Jura National Scenic Area; and/or nature and heritage conservation. POL BE 1A – Seeks to resist development which would have a detrimental impact upon the architectural or historic value of a listed building. ‘Argyll and Bute Local Plan’ (modified finalised draft) 2006 P/DCZ 1 - gives spatial expression to ‘settlement areas’ established by Structure Plan Policy STRAT DC 1, thereby supporting the principle of up to ‘small scale’ development within the ‘settlement area’ of Craighouse. This proposal and the Craighouse ‘settlement area’ has not been the subject of objection as part of the local plan process, and can therefore be accorded material weight in the determination of the application. LP ENV 1 – Sets out the criteria against which the Council will assess all planning applications. This proposal has been the subject of representation as part of the local plan process, and therefore may not be afforded significant weight in the determination of the application. LP ENV 9 – Seeks to resist development which would have an adverse effect upon the Jura National Scenic Area (NSA). This proposal has not been the subject of objection as part of the local plan process, and can therefore be accorded material weight in the determination of the application. LP ENV 13(a) Seeks to resist development which will have an adverse impact upon the historic or architectural character of a listed building. This policy has not been the subject of objection as part of the local plan process, and can therefore be accorded material weight in the determination of the application. LP ENV 18 – Sets out the criteria against which the Council will assess planning applications involving the enhancement and re-use of existing buildings. This policy has not been the subject E:\MODERNGOV\DATA\PUBLISHED\INTRANET\C00000243\M00002818\AI00034899\0700579DETREPORT0.DOC of objection as part of the local plan process, and can therefore be accorded material weight in the determination of the application. LP ENV 19 – Requires new development to accord with a high standard of layout and design which accords with the principles set out in Appendix A of the emergent local plan. This policy has not been the subject of objection as part of the local plan process, and can therefore be accorded material weight in the determination of the application. LP CST 1 – Sets out the criteria against which the Council will assess planning applications for coastal development within the identified ‘settlement area’. This policy has not been the subject of objection as part of the local plan process, and can therefore be accorded material weight in the determination of the application. LP TOUR 1 – Sets out the criteria against which the Council will assess planning applications for tourism development. This policy has not been the subject of objection as part of the local plan process, and can therefore be accorded material weight in the determination of the application. LP TRAN 2 – Seeks to encourage links between new development and existing public transport networks. This policy has not been the subject of objection as part of the local plan process, and can therefore be accorded material weight in the determination of the application. LP TRAN 8 – Seeks to encourage the further development of existing piers and harbours for marine leisure and recreational purposes. This policy has not been the subject of objection as part of the local plan process, and can therefore be accorded material weight in the determination of the application. B. OTHER MATERIAL CONSIDERATIONS (i) Site History A related application for listed building consent (ref. 07/00569/LIB) appears elsewhere on the agenda. (ii) Consultations • Area Environmental Health Manager (received 12.04.07) – No objections subject to conditions in respect of waste management and control of lighting. It is noted that complaints have previously been received by the Council in respect of the accumulations of refuse in Craighouse which allegedly originate from visiting yachts and is exacerbated by fortnightly refuse collections. It is understood that additional refuse storage has been provided in the vicinity of the pier, however it is advised that the current proposal, which could result in the increased use of refuse storage facilities by visiting yachts, should not commence until such time as arrangements for waste storage have been agreed with the Planning Authority. It is also suggested that, in order to protect the amenity of the surrounding land uses/properties from potential light pollution that full details of external lighting be submitted for approval of the Planning Authority. • Area Roads Manager (10.05.07) – No objections. (iii) Publicity The proposal has been advertised under the provisions of Article 9 of the Town and Country Planning (General Development Procedure)(Scotland) Order 1992 for the purposes of neighbour notification. To date, fifteen letters of representation have been received in respect of the proposal.

  • Islay and Jura Road Traffic Speeds PDF 128 KB
    ARGYLL AND BUTE COUNCIL MID ARGYLL, KINTYRE AND THE ISLANDS AREA COMMITTEE DEVELOPMENT & INFRASTRUCTURE September 2018 SERVICES Islay & Jura Road Traffic Speeds – Briefing Note 1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.1 Speed Limits on the Local Road Network are governed by legislation and guidance which are summarised in the proposed policy document. The legislation and guidance have been established to regularise speed limits across the country to provide consistency of approach. 1.2 The speed of vehicles can be an emotive issue for communities that often generates intense local concern and debate. This can be due to the perception of what is an appropriate safe speed which can often differ greatly between, for example; drivers, pedestrians and pedal cyclists, many of whom live and work in the community. 1.3 A request has been received through Members for the consideration of alterations to speed limits at four locations, these being Ballygrant, Bruichladdich, Keills on Islay and Craighouse, Jura. Police Scotland have also indicated that there may be issues with drivers driving inappropriately from time to time. 1.4 Traffic Data Units (TDU) have been used to collect data at the above locations. The data for each site confirms that no further action is required by the Council. 1.5 We have shared this information with Police Scotland who have indicated that, on the basis of the recorded data, they have no concerns at these locations and do not intend any further action at this time. Notwithstanding this, normal sample enforcement will continue on the islands as Police Scotland consider appropriate. 2.0 INTRODUCTION 2.1 This report provides requested speed data for three locations on Islay and one on Jura.
