220624PCDraftMinutes

This document contains the draft minutes from the Cairngorms National Park Authority's (Park Authority) Planning Committee meeting on 24 June 2022. The committee discussed various planning permissions and proposals, including a detailed planning permission for self-catering apartments, shops, a hotel, and underground parking in Aviemore, which was ultimately refused due to concerns about its scale, layout, and impact on the landscape. They also approved an application for dwellinghouses and associated infrastructure in Braemar. The committee agreed to approve the Tom Nan Clach wind farm extension, but with the caveat that if the Lethen Wind Farm is also approved, the Park Authority would object to the Tom Nan Clach wind farm due to the combined negative impact on the landscape. Additionally, the committee agreed to modifications to the Housing Supplementary Guidance for the Local Development Plan 2021, and discussed other proposals related to forestry tracks, holiday lodges, and residential development.
