The number of SGs is reducing from seventeen to fourteen, as three of the adopted SGs are being consolidated to provide a more comprehensive and integrated approach to guidance. The SGs seek to provide more detailed guidance on how particular local development plan policies should be applied in practice. These SGs form a statutory supplement to LDP2, and are intended to expand upon planning policies and proposals contained in the proposed plan. A full list of the supplementary guidance in this series is found below. SG01 Development in the Countryside SG02 Neighbourhood Design SG03 Residential Extension and Alterations SG04 Shopfronts SG05 Green Infrastructure and New Development SG06 Affordable Housing SG07 Biodiversity and Development SG08 Local Nature Conservation and Geodiversity Sites SG09 Landscape Character Assessment and Landscape Designations SG10 Trees and Development SG11 Frontiers of the Roman Empire (Antonine Wall) World Heritage Sites SG12 Listed Buildings and Unlisted Properties in Conservations Areas SG13 Developer Contributions SG14 Renewable and Low Carbon Energy SG03 Residential Extensions and Alterations November 2020 Contents Residential Extensions and Alterations 1. Introduction 2. General Principles 3. Guidance for Different Types of Development 4. Householder Design Checklist Appendix 1 - Useful Contacts SG03 Residential Extensions and Alterations November 2020 1. Introduction Who is this Guidance For? Figure 1a: Poor Design 1.1 This guidance is for anyone wishing to make a planning application in the Falkirk Council area for an extension or alteration to a residential building. The guidance does not apply to Listed Buildings or Conservation Areas where more strict controls apply. Purpose of Guidance 1.2 The guidance aims to raise the design quality of residential extensions and alterations, to the benefit of the wider built environment within the Falkirk Council area. Good design in the built environment creates places with an attractive character and has an impact on the economic well being and general quality of life of an area. Conversely, poorly considered extensions or alterations to dwellings can have an adverse impact on the quality of urban areas (Figure 1). The guidance sets out the general principles which are considered important to achieving good design, and offers more detailed guidance on the most common forms of development. It is not intended to be an Figure 1b: Good Design exhaustive document, and if a particular development type is not covered specifically by this guidance then applicants are advised to contact the Development Management Unit for further advice (please refer to Appendix 1 - Useful Contacts). 01 SG03 Residential Extensions and Alterations November 2020 1. Introduction Who is this Guidance For? 1.3 This guidance has been produced by Falkirk Council to elaborate on Policy HC08 House Extensions and Alterations contained in the Local Development Plan (LDP2). It states: HC08 Residential Extensions and Alterations Extensions and alterations to residential properties will be permitted where: 1. The scale, design and materials are sympathetic to the existing building; 2. The location and scale of the extension or alterations will not significantly affect the degree of amenity, daylight or privacy enjoyed by neighbouring properties; and 3. It will not result in overdevelopment of the plot, thereby giving rise to adverse impact on the functioning of garden ground, unacceptable loss of off-street parking or road safety issues. Detailed guidance on the application of these criteria is set out in Supplementary Guidance SG03 'Residential Extensions and Alterations'. Permitted Development Rights Pre-application Advice 1.4 Not all extensions and alterations to residential 1.5 Pre-application advice is available from the properties require planning permission.

    Falkirk Archaeological Report TORWOOD CASTLE EXCAVATIONS Geoff B Bailey 1 Falkirk Archaeological Report Contents: Introduction The Courtyard Buildings: Room 1 Room 2 The Pend Room 3/4 Room 5/6 Room 7 Room 8 Courtyard Features Trench A Trench B Interpretation and Discussion Phase I – 16th Century (Palatial Residence) Phase II – 17th Century (Baronial House & Park) Phase III- 18th Century (Farmhouse) Phase IV – Gordon Miller (Smallholding) Finds Clay Tobacco Pipes Ceramics Roofing Material Stone Metal Food and Drink Bibliography 2 Falkirk Archaeological Report Introduction In 1997 the author was invited by Gordon Millar, the owner and occupier of Torwood Castle, and the Torwood Castle Trust, to undertake excavations on the courtyard buildings there ahead of a proposed development. Gordon Millar had already been diagnosed with cancer and the Trust had been established to continue his project of consolidating and reconstructing the castle within a setting free from housing estates. No funding was available and the author spent his summer holidays over the next four years with a small band of volunteers at the castle. Illus 1: Plan of the excavated features in and around the courtyard. 3 Falkirk Archaeological Report The 1998 season saw the investigation of the room east of the entrance pend (Room 5/6) and the well room (Room 7). Unfortunately Gordon died before work began. In 1999 the East Wing was explored and a small trench pushed out to the east. In the 2000 season the rooms west of the pend were excavated, along with part of the courtyard. The final year, 2001, was designed to explain the presence of a strange break in the masonry of the external wall of the West Wing near its northern end.

  • Written Submission from Falkirk Council – Petition Pe1102
    PE1102/F WRITTEN SUBMISSION FROM FALKIRK COUNCIL – PETITION PE1102 1. Background 1.1 Falkirk Council, like many local authorities, is strongly opposed to the closure of post offices in the Falkirk Council area. The Council recognises the important social function that post offices have, and that for many individuals in our communities, the post office functions as the main village or local shop. These facilities are used largely by elderly people, people with young children and those with mobility problems to purchase essential items. 1.2 The Council has for a number of years used post offices to provide services such as rent collection etc. Since 1979, Falkirk Council has supported the local area Post Office Network through the facility for tenants to make payment of rent at post offices. This was extended to include council tax payments in 1996. Our contract is with the Alliance & Leicester. Payments are made through a service known as 'BillPay'. Payments are made using plastic payment cards issued by Falkirk Council which can be used to pay rent and/or council tax at the Council's One-Stop-Shops and any post office in the UK. This method of payment is 1 of 7 options that are available to our customers. 1.3 As a result of the development of more efficient and convenient methods of payment, e.g. by Direct Debit, via the Web and by telephone, and the reduction in the Council's housing stock through the right to buy, the number of payment transactions made at post offices has reduced year on year over the past 10 to 15 years.

  • 2010 Air Quality Progress Report for Falkirk Council
    2010 Air Quality Progress Report for Falkirk Council. In fulfillment of Part IV of the Environment Act 1995 Local Air Quality Management July 2010 Falkirk Council - Scotland July 2010 Local Jon Flitney Authority Officer Department Environmental Health Address Abbotsford House, David’s Loan, Falkirk, FK2 7YZ. Telephone 01324 504950 e-mail [email protected] Report Progress Report 2010 Reference Date July 2010 2 Progress Report - 2010 Falkirk Council - Scotland July 2010 Executive Summary A review of the Council’s monitoring data for 2009 shows that the 15-minute objective continues to be breached in the Grangemouth AQMA. In 2009 the Grangemouth Moray site recorded 65 exceedances. This is greater than the 35 allowed by the objective. All SO 2 monitors outside the AQMA met the 15-minute objective, with all sites meeting the hourly and daily SO 2 objectives. A breach of the 2010 annual PM 10 objective was recorded at the Falkirk West Bridge St site in 2009. This result will be used in the Falkirk Town Centre Further Assessment. Therefore the Council will wait for this report to be completed before considering whether to adjust the current AQMA. Since the 2009 USA the Council has declared three AQMAs for NO 2, two are in Falkirk Town Centre and one in the Haggs and Banknock area. In addition, the Banknock area near Cowdenhill Quarry remains subject to a Detailed Assessment for PM 10 . An Action Plan update for the Grangemouth AQMA is given. The Council continues to work on the measures outlined in the plan. In addition, a statement by INEOS about their tail gas treatment and other SO 2 emission reduction work is also included in this report.
