Development Management Sub Committee
Development Management Sub Committee Wednesday 17 March 2021 Application for Planning Permission in Principle 20/00302/PPP at 572 Lanark Road West, Edinburgh, EH14 7BN. Erection of residential development (six dwelling houses) with associated site development works and landscaping (as amended). Item number Report number Wards B02 - Pentland Hills Summary The proposal is for planning permission in principle to develop six Class 9 units on a site located within the Green Belt. This is contrary to Local Development Plan (LDP) Policy Env 10 which presumes against development in the Green Belt other than for uses appropriate to a rural area. However, a departure from the LDP is acceptable in this instance due to the poor condition of the site which does not achieve the objectives of the Green Belt or positively contribute to the character of the area. A number of details will be resolved at the Approval of Matters Specified in Conditions (AMC) application stage including the proposed detailed site layout, height, massing materials, design, associated landscaping, surface water management and infrastructure proposals. The application has demonstrated that, subject to further detailed assessments, it is capable of delivering development that will make a positive contribution to the character of the area.

FORTH AND BORDERS Laundry House Area Office Dalkeith Country Park Dalkeith Midlothian EH22 2NA Fergus D Cochrane Our Ref:CNS/RAIL/ABR Clerk to the Committee The Scottish Parliament Edinburgh EH99 1SP 28 July 2006 Dear Mr Cochrane AIRDRIE-BATHGATE RAILWAY AND LINKED IMPROVEMENTS BILL COMMITTEE’S CONSIDERATION OF BILL’S GENERAL PRINCIPLES AND ADEQUACY OF ACCOMPANYING DOCUMENTS AT PRELIMINARY STAGE Thank you for your consultation of 28 June 2006 requesting comment on the Airdrie - Bathgate Railway and Linked Improvements Bill and the Committee’s consideration of the Bill’s general principles and adequacy of accompanying documents at preliminary stage. The Airdrie - Bathgate Railway project is proposed to help meet the Scottish Executive’s targets for increased and improved rail links in Scotland. Although this project will have some adverse impacts on local biodiversity, landscape and access to the countryside, we believe that with suitable mitigation these impacts can be compensated. Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH) therefore has no objection in principle to the project. SNH has been involved in pre-consultation discussions with the Promoter of the Bill, Network Rail and their environmental consultants, Jacobs Group and Ironside Farrar, from an early stage in the project. Many issues of initial concern have been identified and addressed. A number of detailed reports have been prepared, including reports relating to possible impacts on otters. Further work is ongoing, for example on landscape and habitat management. We welcome the approach that has been taken to date, and the open and constructive manner in which we have been consulted. Within the limitations of the Private Bills Procedures, Network Rail and their consultants have produced an Environmental Statement (ES) which accurately identifies impacts, the significance of these impacts and how to avoid, reduce or mitigate these impacts to an acceptable level.
