  • RURAL PERTH and KINROSS LEADER LOCAL DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY (2014-2020) Draft
    6 PERTH AND KINROSS COUNCIL Enterprise & Infrastructure Committee 4 June 2014 RURAL PERTH & KINROSS LEADER DRAFT LOCAL DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY Report by Executive Director (Environment) The purpose of this report is to ask the Committee to note the draft Rural Perth & Kinross Local Development Strategy. It also seeks approval for the Council to be the Lead Partner organisation. The report also outlines that the final strategy and business plan will be submitted to the Scottish Government by 30 September 2014. 1. BACKGROUND/MAIN ISSUES 1.1 European funding programmes run on 7 year programming cycles, the next of which will cover the period from 2014-20. Draft Scottish programmes have been developed within the framework of Regulations on the Structural Funds - European Regional Development Fund and European Social Fund and European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development. 1.2 The Scottish Government has recently consulted on the new Scottish Rural Development Programme which would include support to LEADER programmes. LEADER (Liaison Entre Acteurs de Development de l’Economie Rurale - Links between development agents in the rural economy) is a bottom-up partnership based approach to rural development. It will be delivered in Scotland by Local Action Groups implementing Local Development Strategies for their area. 1.3 Since February 2013, a series of reports have been submitted to the CPP Executive Officer Group highlighting the Community Led Local Development approach and the options for its implementation in Perth and Kinross, particularly to support the future LEADER Programme. In that context, the Group agreed that the creation of a rural Perth & Kinross LEADER Local Action Group (LAG) with a Local Development Strategy for Rural Perth & Kinross would be the best option.

Beautifully located overlooking Loch Tummel in the heart of Highland Perthshire, Queen's View is the area's most popular visitor attraction. However, the existing buildings needed to be brought up to modern standards, to be able to welcome the Centre's large number of visitors. The project was carried out under the Scape National Major Works framework. "I wanted to write to you to pass on my sincere thanks to Andy Gillie A brush with history for the significant part that he has Located on the site of an old farmstead, visible on an 1860 map of the area, the buildings played in redeveloping a couple of housing the Visitor Centre used to serve as an old forester's cottage and a barn for his tired, old buildings into buildings horses.

  • Sustainable Tourism 2017
    Sustainability and Quality 1. Energy 1.1 Low energy lighting Low energy lighting is used throughout the building where possible within the limitations of the wiring capabilities of a Category B listed building. A programme of replacement is in place to replace older bulbs with new low energy bulbs when they fail. A comprehensive audit of all light bulb requirements throughout the house has been undertaken and low energy equivalents have been used where possible. 1.2 Heating controls Thermostat levels and radiator settings for public areas are regularly reviewed and adjusted according to ambient outside temperatures and predicted weather forecasts All guest bedrooms and bathrooms have individually thermostatically controlled heating Natural open fires using wood sourced on the property are used in the main guest reception rooms which mitigates the need for the main central heating system. 1.3 Draught Proofing and Glazing As a Category B listed Building we are unable to have double glazed windows anywhere in the house. In order to mitigate heat loss and draught proof within these limitations, all bedrooms, and public rooms have substantial full length hand-made curtains which have been interlined with the heaviest grade of felt interlining fabric (known as ‘bump’ fabric). In addition, bedrooms have blackout roller blinds to provide a further layer of draught proofing. Hallways and public areas also have draught proofing window strips or old style draught excluders along window ledges. In exceptionally cold weather, we have a number of secondary glazed panels that are able to be fitted on a temporary basis. 1.4 Switch off We are vigilant about switching off lights in any areas which are unused.

The symbol 09 has been used to indicate where the Interim Report findings have been modified to reflect the UKCP09 projections. Sections 2 and 3, and Appendix 11 of this report provide a detailed analysis of the implications of the UKCP09 projections for the study findings.
