Report by Head of Development and Economic Growth Additional documents: Minutes: The Development Management Officer spoke to the terms of the report. The proposal is for two main business units each approximately 120sqm either side of the existing access to the 810 sqm rectangular site beside the unclassified road known as Roading and in the Main Settlement of Campbeltown as defined in the Local Development Plan (adopted 2015). The site is within the Area of Action (AFA 14/5) which is a strategic designation for relocation/redevelopment and improvement at the edge of town centre and is currently vacant. There were no representations against continuing the AFA during the consultation period of LDP2 and therefore it is still regarded as a suitable site for redevelopment and improvement. The site is at the northerly edge of an Established Business and Industry Area where there is a presumption in favour of development. The Development Management Officer advised that a total of 21 representations have been received, of which 16 were wholly negative, 3 held negative and positive comments, and 2 were wholly supportive. All issues raised have been addressed by consultees and within the report of handling and associated proposed conditions. In these circumstances, it is considered that a hearing would add little value to the determination process. Officers are satisfied that there will not be any adverse effects on nearby residential properties. The application was recommended for approval subject to the conditions and reasons detailed in the report of handling. Motion To agree to hold a discretionary hearing in advance of determining this application. Moved by Councillor Rory Colville, seconded by Councillor Graham Hardie. Amendment To agree to grant planning permission subject to the conditions and reasons detailed in the report of handling. Moved by Councillor David Kinniburgh, seconded by Councillor George Freeman. A vote was taken by calling the roll.
