  • Perth and Kinross Council Development Control Committee – 17 August 2011 Report of Handling by Development Quality Manager
    4(3)(ii) 11/396 Perth and Kinross Council Development Control Committee – 17 August 2011 Report of Handling by Development Quality Manager Erection of 12 affordable (one bedroom) flats, Perth and Kinross Council, Rie- Achan Road, Pitlochry, PH16 5AL Ref. No: 11/01117/FLL Ward No: 4 - Highland Summary This report recommends approval of the application for the erection of 12 affordable flats as the revised design and scale of the building is considered to relate well with the surrounding features of the Conservation Area and the proposal is considered to comply with the provisions of the Development Plan. This proposal is considered to address the reasons for refusal of the previous application (11/00023/FLL). BACKGROUND AND DESCRIPTION 1 Full planning consent is sought for the erection of 12 affordable flats at the site of a former Perth and Kinross Council building at Dalchanpaig on Rie- Achan Road in Pitlochry. The application site is located within Pitlochry Conservation Area. The application site is owned by Perth and Kinross Council and as such there is a requirement for this application to be referred to the Development Control Committee. This application is a follow up to a previous refusal (11/00023/FLL). That application was refused at the Development Control Committee on 13 April 2011. The grounds for refusal included the design, materials and detrimental impact on the visual amenity and the failure to protect or enhance the Conservation Area. 2. The application site is situated on Rie-Achan Road which sits to the south of Atholl Road, the main road through Pitlochry.
