Case Officer: Ross Middleton Customer Details Name: Miss Jean Shepheard Address: Flat 6/1, 80 Oban Drive, Glasgow G20 6EN Comment Details Commenter Type: Public Stance: Customer objects to the Planning Application Comment Reasons: Comment:The proposed design of this residential development is definitely not in keeping with the surrounding buildings. It would be far too high thus reducing light and privacy to present residents, especially those in Kelbourne Street. It would be more appropriate to erect houses, such as those further up Queen Margaret Drive. The sunlight in the playparks would be substantially reduced, especially in the Queen Margaret Drive area. From late August this playpark would be completely in the shade. Furthermore both playparks would be very closely overlooked by residents, plus would residents enjoy the cries of delight coming from the children and teenagers? If this inappropriate design goes ahead - and I sincerely hope it does not - it should be at least 4 stories lower.

It is beside a very well used park and will be too dominating and cutting off sunlight to the park and remove lines of sight. It should be much more modest in height and take into account the public good it sits beside.

The building is taller than the surrounding flats. It will obscure the open views that we currently have and will undoubtedly block light from the street. There are not enough car parking spaces for every flat and due to size of flats I would expect some of these flats to have more than one car. We already have a problem with insufficient and dangerous parking in the area. The drainage in the area is already poor and the street regularly floods in bad weather. I feel bad the size of the building is much larger than the site can reasonably sustain.

Case Officer: Ross Middleton Customer Details Name: Ms L Fraser Address: 3 Lansdowne Crescent, Glasgow G20 6NQ Comment Details Commenter Type: Public Stance: Customer objects to the Planning Application Comment Reasons: Comment:I object to the proposed building of Botanic Apartments at the 10 Kelbourne Street site. I am a resident nearby and use the 'Happy Park' next to the site every day with my children. We enjoy the park with its open outlook and the light and sun you can get there. While there was an expectation there may be a development on the former church site, it is reasonable to expect that it would not be allowed to impose and ruin the experience within the park for many members of the public and our children. The proposed building is not in keeping with the conservation area and does not reflect the buildings around it, or the building it is replacing in terms of character or footprint. Worse than that it is far too high and wide, and would seriously impact the light (and therefore enjoyment of experience) available to both the park and the existing flats opposite. Balconies directly overlook the playpark at close proximity which is also not desirable. The traffic and parking in the area is already terrible, and will again be worse once the new school opens. To put into a plan that there will be 39 flats but only provide 27 parking spaces is absolutely irresponsible and clearly demonstrates the building is too big for the area, and the developer is purely trying to fit as many flats into the space as possible despite the consequences for residents and the wider public. The building will tower over and surround the park and the existing buildings. It should be lower, with fewer flats and parking spaces for each flat provided. Please consider the negative impact on health, safety and wellbeing allowing this application would create.

Why is this build 7 floors ? It will; block light & the open view from my flat opposite, bring noise, pollution & may damage foundations on a mining site (I have heard about Fergus drive). The site is next to a conservation area that should be protected. There is already a large construction taking place (Maryhill school) behind my flat, this plan means more noise pollution, traffic, construction in a small area (incl Fergus drive). I have been informed by a local agent the build will negatively affect my property price. There are not enough parking spaces for the number of units. This means those living/ visiting will add cars to an area already blocked with vehicles. There is a risk to safety of children in the adjacecent play park. I am not opposed to the site being regenerated but it must be respectful of existing residents in terms of noise, light, obstructing a view. It should be on a far smaller scale to match other tenement flats & the architecture of the local conservation area.

Case Officer: Ross Middleton Customer Details Name: Mr Marco Avarucci Address: Flat 1/1, 3 Kelbourne Street, Glasgow G20 8PE Comment Details Commenter Type: Public Stance: Customer objects to the Planning Application Comment Reasons: Comment:1. The site was home to the former North Kelvinside Paris Church, demolished in 1987 due to subsidence caused by undermining. A visual inspection of the site suggests that the area on the corner between Kelbourne street and Queen Margaret Drive (hereinafter QMD) was the most affected by subsidence. The position of the two rotary holes (Coal Mine Risk Assessment) indicates that the aforementioned area might have not been closely investigated. 2. The development site is located at the edge of the Glasgow West Conservation Area. Because of its footprint, height, scale, massing and density, the proposed building would be overdevelopment of the site and so would not respect its historic context but would detract from the special character of the area. 3. The proposed building would be cramped on limited space and would overshadow the whole neighborhood. It would obstruct to an unacceptable degree the amount of light coming through the windows of, and the level of light inside, existing tenement flats around it. The four-storey tenements of flats facing the gap site in Kelbourne Street will not only suffer a significant loss of natural lights, but also an unacceptable loss of privacy because of the balconies and the rooftop garden. 4. The car park is estimated to have more than 100 daily movements (Air Quality Assessment, 4.4.) leading to an expected significant impact on the on traffic and on the local ambient air quality at nearby residential areas. Part IV of the Environment Act 1995 places a statutory duty on local authorities to periodically review and assess the air quality within their area. This involves consideration of present and likely future air quality against air quality standards and objectives. The impact on air quality of the proposed development should be assessed not only against the present situation but should also consider the cumulative impact of the ongoing nearby developments (primary school in QMD and Flats in Fergus Drive).
