REPRESENTATIONS: Neighbours: Seven Newspaper Advert: 169 plus Stepps and District Community Council and Cardowan Tenants and Residents Association.

COMMENTS: The application is for the erection of I36 dwellings, related dmnt&mtion and consolidation earthworks, and the inskation of dramage inhshcture at the former colliery site, Cardowan Road, Cardowan, Stepps. In addition, it is proposed to alter a number of the conditions attached to the outline planning permission granted by the Secretary of State on appeal in 1993. These seek approval for the details of the Cardowan Road access via the current application rather than via a separate application, to allow the use of the Cardowan Road access for additional construction traf€ic related to the adjacent residential development, to allow landscaping works to be phased after general earthworks and to delete the requirement for traffic lights on the M8O roundabout junction prior to the commencement of works.

A masterplan for future development on the former colliery site was submitted with the application. This indicates areas of residential, industrial and business use development, a limited leisurdretail site, a golf driving range, planting areas including the main bings, water courses including balancing ponds, details of decontamination/ consolidation works, details of dramage works and protection measures for important internal and adjacent areas of flora and fauna. Many of the master plan items cannot be included within the current planning application but give a useful overview of future development proposals for the full colliery site.

It should be noted that approximately 50% of the colliery site is within the city of Glasgow.

A considerable number of objections have been received. There is particular concern at the ability of Cardowan Road to cope with extra traffic. It should be noted however that the above outline planning permission gives approval for an access onto Cardowan Road. 13

APPLICATION NO: N/97/00334/FUL

1. PROPOSAL AND SITE

1.1 The application is for the erection of 136 dwellings in two phases of development at the former colliery site, Cardowan Road, Cardowan, Stepps. Also covered by the application are related decontamination and consolidation earthworks, and installation of drarnage inhstructure including the use of watercourses and ponds to accommodate subwater runoff. It is also proposed that there be alteration to a number of conditions attached to the outline permission for residential and industrial units. These are that:-

a) There no longer be a requirement for a separate planning application for the details of the Cardowan Road access. Although such a separate application was submitted in 1994 a Decision Notice has not been issued as a Legal Agreement requiring a Roads Bond has not been completed. Full revised details of the access have however been submitted with the current application and it is argued that planning permission can properly be granted through the residential planning permission.

b) There be a relaxation on the limits placed on construction traf€ic using the Cardowan Road access. The applicants are proposing to construct the link road from the M8O Crowwood Roundabout to the site as an initial phase of construction along with a major earthworks contract for ground remediation works. Both contracts will be implemented concurrently thus requiring some usage by construction vehicles of the use Cardowan Road access. It is however stated that the earthworks contract shall, as far as possible, be contained within the site and that no si@cant volumes of material shall be exported from or imported to the site. The Phase 2 section of residential development will require the Cardowan Road access for construction vehicles and subsequently for residents. In due course an internal link road within the site will be constructed which will allow maximum usage of the access onto the M8O Crowwood Roundabout.

c) There be a relaxation on the requirement for landscaping to be a first phase of development. Landscaping works cannot commence until the completion of the ground preparation works. It is necessary to programme the restoration of the bings and new landscaping in line with re- contouring of the site, the excavation and replacement of contaminated made ground and peat and the consolidation of the washed colliery discard.

d) There be a deletion of the requirement that works shall not commence until temporary trailic lights are installed at the point of access onto the M80 Crowwood Roundabout. The use of temporary traffk lights has been rejected by Scottish Office Roads Engineers and as such this condition is now inappropriate.

1.2 The residential development is on Phases 1 and 2 of the former colliery site which takes up approximately 4 hectares of the total 81 hectares size of the full colliery site. The site is derelict open ground with all the former colliery building having been demolished.

1.3 Although this application site is limited to only parts of the whole site which was granted outline consent, it is acceptable under planning regulations to impose conditions affecting other related land within the control of the applicants. As such it is recommended that approval be granted via this conditional permission for decontaminatiodconsolidation works and dramage works within the larger site.

These/ 21

-2-

These involve the working of extensive fill deposits and the excavation of the underlying peat to provide compacted ground and development platforms. Peat and inert raw material will be mixed with contamination materials in order to render them safe for the planned after use. Surface water drarnage will be led to existing water courses. Balancing ponds will be formed in order to control the quality and rate of discharge of the water courses onto the sensitive Garnkirk Moss.

1.4 In addition to the planning application described above a master plan has been submitted covering all the proposed works within the full colliery site. This follows the main thrust of the outline planning permission granted in 1993 and 1996 for residential and industrial development on the site. It is proposed that, that part of the site within North Lanarkshire be developed residentially with a substantial proportion of landscaping and one small section of industrial development. Development within Glasgow would mainly be industrial and landscaping with a golf driving range and a small area of housing. e 2. POLICY CONTEXT 2.1 Under the terms of the Strathkelvin District (Southern Area) Local Plan 1983 the site is zoned for industrial purposes (IND 4) whereby there is a presumption in favour of creating new employment opportunities. The western section of the site is also zoned as being deedby specific proposals @.PRO 6) and the eastern section of site is additionally zoned as greenbelt @.PRO 2) where there is a presumption against new development unless required for agriculture, forestry or outdoor recreation.

2.2 Under the terms of the Northern Corridor Local Plan Consultative Draft 1998 the site is identified as a housing development opportunity (HG 1/24).

2.3 Strathclyde Structure Plan 1995 promotes the suitable redevelopment of brownfield sites Policy RES I requires that preference be given to residential development on “brownfield” fill or redevelopment sites.

2.4 The application has been advertised in the Kirkintilloch Herald and the News under the Development Contrary to Development Plan procedure in view of the sites industridgreenbelt joining in the Strathkelvin District (Southern Area) Local Plan 1983.

3. CONSULTATIONS AND REPRESENTATIONS

3.1 Summaries of consultation responses are as follows:

The Coal Authority: The property is in an area where coal is believed to exist at or close to the surfsce that may have been worked at sometime in the past and is within the likely zone of the influence on the surface fiom one seam of shallow fire clay workings. There are four mine entries within 20 metres of the property. A prudent developer would seek appropriate technical advice before any works are undertaken on site. (The developers are aware of the mineral site conditions and the housing layout avoids the areas affected by shallow workings.)

City of Glasgow Council: No objections.

Kelvin/ 22 .

-3-

Kelvin Valley Countryside Project: Although the Cardowan overall master plan addresses some ecological issues the Project has some concern regarding the impact upon nearby Sites of Importance for Nature Conservation and also areas used for informal recreation within the proposed development. Of concern is the proposed golf driving range which will have a negative impact on the adjacent site.

Scottish Environmental Protection Agency: A meeting has been held with the developer at which issues including the disposal of foul and surface water, the inclusion of Best Management Practices with regard to surface water treatment and disposal, the possible impact on the Bishop Loch and Garnkirk Moss, earth movement during the construction phase including the re-contouring the existing bings and the disposal of waste fiom the site. Provided that the above issues are properly addressed there are no objections to the development proposal.

Scottish Natural Heritage: No objections subject to the addressing of matters relating to landscaping, requirement for a tree survey, the nondisturbance of Gadirk Moss, woodland management and appropriate footpath provision. 0

West of Scotland Water: Prehmary discussions have taken place with the developers’ engineers and the necessary dramage scheme is presently being designed and would be constructed to West of Scotland Water’s specihtion.

Director of Education: The number of additional school pupils likely to be generated will not be able to be accommodated in local schools. It is recommended that if planning consent is granted the developer should meet the capital cost of providing the additional school places resulting fiom the development. Existing road traffic problems at Stepps Primary School and St. Joseph’s Primary School are likely to be worsened.

Director of Environmental Services: Ground contamination works and proposed remedial action requires to be approved by the Department of Environmental Services. A railway noise/vibration assessment should be submitted for appraisal.

Director of Leisure Services: The site and existing landscape can only be improved by the development. The contouring, screen planting, avenue/street tree planting and the enhancement of existing drarnage ditches linked to public open space are all satisfktory as an indication of intentions with regard to 0 landscaping. Recommendations are provided conceming limits to earthmoving in the vicinity of Sites of Importance for Nature Conservation, the best use of existing and potential wetland habitats, the need for satisfactory sediment traps in the dramage water course, the need for firther approval for watercourse details and appropriate planting. There is a need for play areas within the residential site.

Transportation Manager: No objections subject to conditions relating to the geometry and visibility splays of the access onto Cardowan Road and the requirement that the roads be designed and constructed to an adoptable standard.

3.2 Where appropriate planrung conditions have been imposed covering consultee recommendations.

3.3 177 letters of objection have been received including an objection fiom Cardowan Tenants and Residents Association. Stepps and District Community Council have written giving conditional support for the proposals but reserved their position on the Cardowan Road access due to lack of clarity on the plans.

Points/ 23

-4-

Points of objection are as follows:

- Access onto Cardowan Road should only be for initial construction works for the link road to the M80 roundabout as specified by the outline planning permission. The Phase 2 residential development should be served solely via the M80 roundabout. Excessive construction traftic will be a roads danger and cause loss of amenity on Cardowan Road. The Cardowan Road access may be heavily used due to traffic congestion on the M80 Crowwood Roundabout.

- Cardowan Road catl not safely take more traffic due to congestion and poor sightlines. There will be a particular danger to the many school children who use Cardowan Road. There is a roads danger due to the proximity of the proposed access with other accesses onto Cardowan Road.

- The proposed development will remove a parking area used by the local school and church and will also result in the loss of the adjacent public house car park.

- There is insufficient local school capacity for children associated with the new development.

- The planning conditions attached to the outline permission should be rigorously enforced. This includes only construction traffic associated with the M8O roundabout link road using the Cardowan Road access, an early start to landscaping and protection of rights of way.

- There are no proposals to improve existing facilities at Cardowan. This will make integration into Cardowan difficult and lack of fhilities may lead more youth crime.

- Certain plans are not clear. Garnkirk Lane has wrongly been indicated as a footpath. - The golf driving range along with other aspects of the proposed development will adversely affect wiIdIife and local habitats. Previous reclamation works have devastated local wildlife.

- The existing footpath from Drimnin Road to Cardowan Road via the application site should be retained.

- Decontamination should be the first phase of development.

- Building works should not cause a nuisance i.e. from dust or late night noise.

- Previous planning conditions on the reclamation permission were not complied with.

- There is no direct dramage to Frankfield Loch as stated in the master plan.

4. OBSERVATIONS AND CONCLUSIONS

4.1 The principal of the residential development has been approved through the residential and industrial outline planning permission granted in 1993 and renewed in 1996. The outline approval directly covers residential development, an access onto Cardowan Road, landscaping, appropriate decontamination and drajnage which is compatible with the adjacent sensitive Sites of Importance for Nature Conservation.

4.2 It/ 24

-5-

4.2 It is accepted that, as pointed out by objectors, there will be some adverse effect on the amenity of local residents through construction works. This is however normal for building projects. Taking account of the outline planning permission it must be accepted thac not withstanding the many objections, Cardowan Road will be used by additional residential traffic and some early construction traffic, and that limitations of existing fhcilities such as available school places are not a hindrance to the proposed development. The outline permission gives no remit to require a contribution to improvements to local hilities, such as schools, outwith the application site.

4.3 The outline planning permission allowed only construction traffic associated with the link road to the M80 to use the Cardowan Road access. However, construction traffic in excess of the level approved through the outline permission, is now proposed via the Cardowan Road access. This is due to the decOntaminatiodconsolidation works taking place at an early stage in conjunction with the construction of, but prior to opening of, the link road to the M8O Crowwood Roundabout. Construction traffic for the Phase 2 residential development immediately adjacent to Cardowan Road will also require to use the Cardowan Road access as the internal spine road crossing the full colliery site will only be completed at a later date.

4.4 There are no objections to the use of the Cardowan Road access from the Transportation Manager. It is considered that a positive view must be taken of the redevelopment of this unsightly derelict colliery site. It should be noted that Cardowan Road is a public road with no prohibition on types of traffic and that it was previously the main access route to Cardowan colliery which closed in 1984. It is considered that the temporary extra construction traffic usage beyond the terms of the outline permission is acceptable. Planning conditions are attached which are designed to ensure that the link road to the MSO Crowwood Roundabout is constructed prior to housebuilding commencing on Phase 1 and that housebuilding should not commence on Phase 2 until one or more houses are occupied in Phase 1.

4.5 It is accepted that the appropriate time for landscaping works is after the decontamjnatiodconsolidation earthworks phase. A planning condition covers this point.

4.6 As pointed out in letters of objection parts of the colliery and application site are used for parkmg for the adjacent public house, parking and picking-up/dropping-off for the adjacent school and church and a footpath link from Drimnin Road to Cardowan Road. Although these uses are without the agreement of the landowner a planning condition requires that details be submitted of a substitute parking area for use in relation to the school and church. It may be appropriate to incorporate a footpath link to Drimnin Road when processing a residential application on immediately adjacent land.

4.7 The internal spine road crossing the full site will not be constructed until a later date, and as such the Phase 1 housing deveIopment will be relatively isolated in the meantime. Therefore a condition has been included which will require footpath links shown on the drawings between Phase 1 and Cardowan Road to be constructed prior to the house being occupied in Phase 1. This will provide pedestrian access to local facilities for residents of Phase 1.

4.8 The developers anticipate that the right of way adjacent to the railway line will require to be temporarily diverted or stopped up to allow the construction of the link road to the M80 Crowwood Roundabout. The acceptability or otherwise of such proposals will be determined at the time of promotion of any right of way order.

4.9 Thel 25

-6-

4.9 The proposed works will almost certainly aid local wildlife in the long term due to the large areas of proposed planting and ponding. Conditions require due care and attention to the adjacent Sites of Importance for Nature Conservation. There is only a restricted range of existing flora and fauna due to the degraded condition of the site.

4.10 The outline planning permission maximum limit of 60 dwelling to be constructed per year is retained for Phases I and 2 as covered by this permission. The applicants have however stated that they may seek a relaxation of tlvs condition in subsequent residential planning applications, Improved plans have been submitted which amongst other matters show Gamkirk Lane as a vehicular route which will not be directly afkcted by the proposed development.

4.11 There are no objections to the layout details subject to the provision of appropriate play areas. A plammg condition covers this issue. There are no objections to the proposed development from consultees although certain details require fbrther assessment and approval. These matters are covered e by planning conditions. 4.12 The first two phases of residential development, the decontaminatodconsolidation groundworks, landscaping and early drrunage works are part of an exciting major brownfield development. The proposed works relate acceptably to the outline planning permission and any alterations from outline conditions reflect updated proposals for this major development.
