Issue - decisions

Detailed Planning Permission - change of use of ground and 1st floor from class 4 (offices) to class 10 (non-residential institutions) - Old Stoenywood Church, Bankhead Road Aberdeen

19/12/2019 - Detailed Planning Permission for erection of 65-bed care home over 2, 3 and 4 storeys with associated landscaping, car parking and infrastructure - Marcliffe at Pitfodels Aberdeen

The Committee resolved:-

To refuse the application. 

1.    The proposal would result in the loss of a number of mature trees that would have a negative impact on the conservation area and would have a negative impact on the surrounding area. The proposal would therefore be contrary Policy NE5 (Trees and Woodland) of the Aberdeen Local Development Plan.

2.    The loss of parking associated with the hotel would have an adverse impact on the surrounding areas, as overspill parking could go on to North Deeside Road, as insufficient parking would remain for that use. The proposal would therefore be contrary to Policy T2 (Managing the Transport Impact of Development) of the Aberdeen Local Plan.
