Decision: Continued to allow further negotiation with the developer in respect of the height and layout of the proposed wind farm. VOTE Councillor Buckingham, seconded by Councillor Fullarton, moved refusal of the application. Councillor Moffat, seconded by Councillor Campbell, moved approval of the application. Councillor Bell, seconded by Councillor Brown, moved that the application be continued to allow negotiations with the developer regarding a reduction in the height of the turbines and an amended layout. It was agreed that a vote for and against continuation be taken first and only if continuation was unsuccessful would a further vote be taken. On a show of hands Members voted as follows:- For - 6 votes Against - 5 votes It was therefore decided that the application be continued and no further vote was taken. NOTE Having declared an interest Councillor Smith did not take part in the consideration of this application. 12/00980/FUL Scottish Ambulance Erection of ambulance Land northwest of Service station with wash bay Borders General ATKINS Ltd canopy, workshop and Hospital Per Jenon Stewart associated car park and 200 Broomielaw hardstanding Glasgow G1 4RU Decision: Refused for the following reason: The proposed development would fail to comply with Policy N10 of the Consolidated Structure Plan 2009 and Policies G1, NE4, EP1 and EP3 in that it would result in the substantial removal of important woodland screening, which would expose the proposed development and, more significantly, the wider hospital campus, thereby undermining the setting of the Eildon Hills and therefore the integrity of the National Scenic Area. The benefits of the proposed development do not outweigh the significant adverse landscape impacts that would result and it has not been demonstrated that alternatives to the proposed site are not available or that the landscape impacts can be satisfactorily mitigated. 3 Item No. 4 VOTE Councillor Smith, seconded by Councillor Ballantyne, moved that the application be refused. Councillor Buckingham, seconded by Councillor Cranston, moved that the application be approved. On a show of hands Members voted as follows:- Motion - 8 votes Amendment - 3 votes The Motion was accordingly carried. 12/00929/FUL Ian McLachlan Installation of pump Drysdales, McKay And Partners house and associated Old Cambus, 6 Market Place works for effluent Cockburnspath Selkirk TD7 4BT discharge Decision: Approved as per recommendation, subject to the following conditions and informatives and an additional requirement for legal agreement requiring annual monitoring and review of the condition of the land affected by the path of the pipeline through the area known as “Marley’s Brae” to ensure that any issues arising from the stability of the slope do not increase the visibility or environmental impact of the development proposed. 1. The development hereby permitted shall be begun before the expiration of three years from the date of this permission. Reason: To comply with Section 58 of the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997, as amended by the Planning etc. (Scotland) Act 2006. 2. The development hereby permitted shall not be carried out otherwise than in complete accordance with the plans and specifications approved by the Planning Authority, which includes the requirement to replace and affix removed rock along the surface of the route of the pipe across the shore. Reason: To ensure that the development is carried out in accordance with the approved details. 3. No development shall commence until a sample of the concrete backfill with applied colour finish shall be submitted to and approved in writing by the Planning Authority. Reason: The materials to be used require further consideration to ensure a satisfactory form of development, which contributes appropriately to its setting. 4. No development shall commence until slope stability survey assessing the route of the pipeline has been submitted to and approved in writing with the Planning Authority. Once approved the development shall be carried out wholly in accordance with the approved details and required methods of mitigation. Reason: Further information is required to ensure that the excavation will not have an adverse effect on the stability of the coastline embankment. 5. No development shall take place until the applicant has secured a programme of archaeological work in accordance with a Written scheme of Investigation outlining a Watching Brief. This will be formulated by a contracted archaeologist and approved in writing by the Planning Authority. Access should be afforded to allow investigation by a contracted archaeologist(s) nominated by the developer and agreed to by the Planning Authority. The developer shall allow the archaeologist(s) to observe relevant below ground excavation during development, investigate and record features of interest and recover finds and samples if necessary. Results will be submitted to the Planning Authority for review in the form of a Data Structure Report. If significant archaeology is discovered below ground excavation should cease pending further consultation with the Planning Authority. The developer will ensure that any significant data and finds 4 Item No. 4 undergo post- excavation analysis the results of which will be submitted to the Planning Authority Reason: The site is within an area where ground works may interfere with, or result in the destruction of, archaeological remains, and it is therefore desirable to afford a reasonable opportunity to record the history of the site.

  • RURAL EAST LOTHIAN BUS GROUP (RELBUS) Response to CMA Merger
    RURAL EAST LOTHIAN BUS GROUP (RELBUS) response to CMA Merger Investigation: Completed acquisition by East Coast Buses Limited of the east coast operations of First Scotland East Limited. 1. What do you expect to be the outcome of this merger on bus services in the area? There is already a VASTLY improved level of service to passengers as a result of East Coast Buses Ltd (ECB) having acquired the operations of First Scotland East Ltd. in East Lothian. RELBUS hopes that the merger will be allowed to proceed in the interests of passengers. This covers every aspect of operations viz: Reliability: Because of reduced maintenance facilities at First’s Musselburgh depot, for economic reasons, and the general age of the fleet (some vehicles used on all day service were 17 years old) the reliability of First services was appalling, with drivers often booking buses off service mid journey as a previously logged fault had not been attended to. Because of the location of the Musselburgh depot (North Berwick depot had no spare buses) such breakdowns were rarely replaced resulting in gaps in service and abandoned passengers en route. It was not uncommon for a gap of two hours to occur in the hourly service in evenings, Sundays and through to Edinburgh. It was literally a daily occurrence for such breakdowns to occur. With ECB, their fleet is generally newer, and certainly in superb condition and breakdowns in service are very rare and indeed I personally have not become aware of any. Cleanliness of buses First’s buses were only rarely cleaned both externally and internally.

Kyle Martin, LCP Expert information for all those invested in the UK’s energy future REPORT Labour public ownership plan could create hundreds of local energy groups The Labour Party has put forward a programme for a bigger public role in energy supply that includes both national and regional authorities to set policy and could result in hundreds of local energy agencies. It promises, in ‘Bringing Energy Home’, that the change is not a return to “the distant bureaucracies of the 1970s”. The policy will start with a National Energy Agency, set up on the institutional base of National Grid, which will have duties over both decarbonisation and social objectives. It will own and operate the transmission system and will take over some of Ofgem’s functions. It will also be able to borrow to fund system extensions, including owning and operating storage. Regional energy agencies, based on distribution network operators’ areas, will have similar responsibilities within their areas and will also be able to take action over energy efficiency, regional industrial strategy and new infrastructure such as vehicle charging networks.
