  1. Aviemore Com­munity Coun­cil made a neut­ral rep­res­ent­a­tion rais­ing the issue of afford­able hous­ing pro­vi­sion and con­tri­bu­tions and how this pro­pos­al may affect the afford­able hous­ing con­tri­bu­tions agreed for the wider devel­op­ment. Representations
  2. No rep­res­ent­a­tions were received. Appraisal
  3. Sec­tion 25 of the Town and Coun­try Plan­ning (Scot­land) Act 1997 (as amended) requires applic­a­tions to be determ­ined in accord­ance with the Devel­op­ment Plan. This com­prises the Cairngorms Nation­al Park Loc­al Devel­op­ment Plan 2021 (LDP), and the Nation­al Plan­ning Frame­work 4 (NPF4). Where there is con­flict between policies, NPF4 policies take pre­ced­ence. Principle
  4. NPF4 Policy 1 Tack­ling the nature and cli­mate crisis states that when con­sid­er­ing all devel­op­ment pro­pos­als sig­ni­fic­ant weight will be giv­en to the glob­al cli­mate and nature crises.
  5. NPF4 Policy 16: Qual­ity homes states that devel­op­ment pro­pos­als for new homes on land alloc­ated for hous­ing in LDPs will be supported.
  6. LDP Policy 1: New hous­ing devel­op­ment states that pro­pos­als for hous­ing will be sup­por­ted where they are loc­ated on an iden­ti­fied alloc­ated site.
  7. The pro­pos­al site is loc­ated with­in hous­ing alloc­a­tion site H1, as alloc­ated by the LDP, and is loc­ated with­in the con­sen­ted res­id­en­tial devel­op­ment site. The prin­ciple of res­id­en­tial devel­op­ment on the site is estab­lished, accept­able and in this respect com­plies with NPF4 Policy 16: Qual­ity homes and LDP Policy 1: New hous­ing devel­op­ment. The prin­ciple of the pro­posed devel­op­ment loc­ated on a site sub­ject to an exist­ing con­sent, with­in an exist­ing set­tle­ment and with­in easy walk­ing dis­tance of amen­it­ies, is also con­sidered to be in accord­ance with the prin­ciple of NPF4 policy 1, sub­ject to com­pli­ance with oth­er detailed policies.

Afford­able housing

  1. The pro­posed houses do not con­sti­tute afford­able hous­ing as defined by the LDP, how­ever LDP policy 1.5: Afford­able hous­ing states that devel­op­ments of few­er than four mar­ket houses do not have to make an onsite provision.
  2. Giv­en, how­ever, that this applic­a­tion pro­poses to devel­op three houses on a plot pre­vi­ously con­sen­ted for two houses as part of a wider res­id­en­tial devel­op­ment, which itself was sub­ject to an afford­able hous­ing pro­vi­sion require­ment, it is appro­pri­ate that this applic­a­tion makes a pro­por­tion­ate con­tri­bu­tion to afford­able hous­ing provision.
  3. With the total num­ber of units being delivered on the wider site now increas­ing, it is appro­pri­ate to cap­ture this uplift and the sub­sequent uplift in afford­able hous­ing con­tri­bu­tions through a leg­al agree­ment in accord­ance with the adop­ted LDP, which stip­u­lates a 45% afford­able hous­ing require­ment for sites in Aviemore.
  4. As such, a leg­al agree­ment for a com­muted sum of £9,675 is pro­posed, which rep­res­ents 45% of the cur­rent com­muted sum rate for a single afford­able hous­ing plot. This has been dis­cussed and agreed with the applic­ant. Lay­out and design
  5. NPF4 Policy 14 Design, qual­ity and place seeks to ensure that devel­op­ment pro­pos­als improve the qual­ity of the area and are con­sist­ent with the six qual­it­ies of suc­cess­ful places: healthy; pleas­ant; con­nec­ted; dis­tinct­ive; sus­tain­able; and adaptable.
  6. LDP Policy 3: Design and Place­mak­ing also seeks to ensure that pro­pos­als improve the qual­ity of the area and are con­sist­ent with the six qual­it­ies of suc­cess­ful places.
  7. LDP Policy 5: Land­scape pre­sumes against devel­op­ment that does not con­serve and enhance the land­scape char­ac­ter and spe­cial qual­it­ies of the Nation­al Park and in par­tic­u­lar the set­ting of the pro­posed development.

Cairngorms Item 7 Plan­ning Com­mit­tee Nation­al Park Author­ity 29 August 2025 Ugh­dar­ras Pàirc Nàiseanta a’ Mhon­aidh Ruaidh Page 11 of 15

  1. The pro­posed devel­op­ment is of a design, scale and char­ac­ter that is in keep­ing with both that of the loc­al town­scape and that of the wider con­sen­ted devel­op­ment. The mater­i­als pro­posed include white render, uPVC framed win­dows, uPVC doors and con­crete roof tiles, and are appro­pri­ate for the set­ting. The pro­posed devel­op­ment will not appear incon­gru­ous with­in the set­ting of the wider con­sen­ted development.
  2. The roads, access and ser­vi­cing arrange­ments remain sim­il­ar to that of the approved design, with no con­sequen­tial changes.
  3. The pro­pos­al is in accord­ance with NPF4 Policy 14: Design, qual­ity and place and with LDP Policy 3: Design and Place­mak­ing and Policy 5: Land­scape. Environment
  4. NPF4 Policy 3: Biod­iversity seeks to ensure that devel­op­ment pro­pos­als pro­tect biod­iversity, reverse biod­iversity loss, deliv­er pos­it­ive effects from devel­op­ment and strengthen nature net­works. Devel­op­ment pro­pos­als must include appro­pri­ate meas­ures to con­serve, restore and enhance biod­iversity, in accord­ance with nation­al and loc­al guidance.
  5. NPF4 Policy 4: Nat­ur­al places seeks to ensure that devel­op­ment pro­pos­als pro­tect, restore and enhance nat­ur­al assets mak­ing best use of nature-based solu­tions. Devel­op­ment that has sig­ni­fic­ant adverse impacts on des­ig­nated sites, after mit­ig­a­tion, will not be supported.
  6. LDP Policy 4: Nat­ur­al her­it­age seeks to ensure that there are no adverse effects on European Pro­tec­ted Spe­cies and oth­er biod­iversity interests.
  7. The pro­pos­al does not include any spe­cif­ic meas­ures con­cern­ing biod­iversity enhance­ment. How­ever, as the pro­pos­al seeks to devel­op a plot with an extant per­mis­sion for two dwell­ing­houses loc­ated with­in a wider site under­go­ing res­id­en­tial devel­op­ment, it is con­sidered that biod­iversity enhance­ment solely in rela­tion to this applic­a­tion is not required.

Cairngorms Item 7 Plan­ning Com­mit­tee Nation­al Park Author­ity 29 August 2025 Ugh­dar­ras Pàirc Nàiseanta a’ Mhon­aidh Ruaidh Page 12 of 15

  1. Sim­il­arly, wider issues relat­ing to nat­ur­al her­it­age and eco­logy have been addressed sat­is­fact­or­ily through the con­sid­er­a­tion and approv­al of the wider exist­ing consent(s), and this pro­posed devel­op­ment is of a scale and nature which will not have any unac­cept­able det­ri­ment­al impacts on biod­iversity and nat­ur­al heritage.
  2. The pro­pos­al com­plies with NPF4 Policy 3: Biod­iversity, NPF4 Policy 4: Nat­ur­al places and LDP Policy 4: Nat­ur­al her­it­age. Flood­ing and sur­face water
  3. NPF4 Policy 22: Flood risk and water man­age­ment seeks to ensure that devel­op­ments are resi­li­ent to cur­rent and future flood risk.
  4. LDP Policy 10: Resources requires all devel­op­ment should be free from flood risk, not increase the risk of flood­ing elsewhere.
  5. There are no con­cerns regard­ing flood risk at the pro­pos­al site and the pro­posed drain­age design remains largely as pre­vi­ously consented.
  6. The pro­pos­al is in accord­ance with NPF4 Policy 22: Flood risk and water man­age­ment and LDP Policy 10: Resources Developer Obligations
  7. LDP policy 11: Developer Oblig­a­tions of the Cairngorms Nation­al Park Loc­al Devel­op­ment Plan 2021 sets out that where devel­op­ment gives rise to a need to increase or improve pub­lic ser­vices, facil­it­ies or infra­struc­ture or mit­ig­ate adverse effects then the developer will nor­mally be required to make a fair and reas­on­able con­tri­bu­tion towards addi­tion­al costs or requirements.
  8. The applic­ant has agreed to the pay­ment of a fin­an­cial con­tri­bu­tion towards afford­able hous­ing pro­vi­sion. No oth­er plan­ning oblig­a­tions are required in this instance.

Con­clu­sion

  1. The pro­posed devel­op­ment of three houses on pre-exist­ing res­id­en­tial devel­op­ment plots is accept­able in prin­ciple and the detail of the pro­posed design, lay­out and mater­i­als is accept­able and in keep­ing with the char­ac­ter of the area.
  2. The pro­posed devel­op­ment com­plies with the policies of NPF4 and the LDP and, sub­ject to an appro­pri­ate leg­al agree­ment to secure the neces­sary afford­able hous­ing con­tri­bu­tion, there are no mater­i­al con­sid­er­a­tions which out­weigh this con­clu­sion. Recom­mend­a­tion That mem­bers of the com­mit­tee sup­port a recom­mend­a­tion to APPROVE the applic­a­tion for the recon­fig­ur­a­tion of two house plots to form three plots and erec­tion of three houses at land 52M SW of 16 Farm Road, Aviemore, sub­ject to:
  3. Con­clu­sion of a leg­al agree­ment to secure a fin­an­cial con­tri­bu­tion towards afford­able hous­ing provision.

Con­di­tions Those con­di­tions lis­ted below in bold text are sus­pens­ive con­di­tions, which require to be dis­charged pri­or to imple­ment­a­tion of the devel­op­ment. 1. The devel­op­ment to which this per­mis­sion relates must be begun not later than the expir­a­tion of three years begin­ning with the date on which the per­mis­sion is gran­ted. Reas­on: The time lim­it con­di­tion is imposed in order to com­ply with the require­ments of sec­tion 58 of the Town and Coun­try Plan­ning (Scot­land) Act 1997 as amended. Informatives

  1. The per­son under­tak­ing the devel­op­ment is required to give the Plan­ning Author­ity pri­or writ­ten noti­fic­a­tion of the date which it is inten­ded to com­mence the devel­op­ment. Attached to this decision notice is a Notice of Ini­ti­ation of Devel­op­ment for com­ple­tion and sub­mis­sion. Sub­mis­sion of this inform­a­tion assists the Cairngorms Nation­al Park Author­ity Mon­it­or­ing and Enforce­ment Officer in mon­it­or­ing act­ive work with­in the area to ensure com­pli­ance with the approved details and to identi­fy and cor­rect any poten­tial prob­lems, as they arise, rather than later when it may be more dif­fi­cult and more costly to rec­ti­fy. Fail­ure to give notice would con­sti­tute a breach of plan­ning con­trol which may res­ult in enforce­ment action being taken. 2. Fol­low­ing com­ple­tion of the devel­op­ment, a noti­fic­a­tion of com­ple­tion shall, as soon as prac­tic­able, be giv­en to the Plan­ning Author­ity. Attached to this decision notice is a Notice of Com­ple­tion of Devel­op­ment for com­ple­tion and sub­mis­sion. Sub­mis­sion of this form will assist the Cairngorms Nation­al Park Author­ity Mon­it­or­ing and Enforce­ment Officer in mak­ing a final inspec­tion and check­ing com­pli­ance with the approved draw­ings and con­di­tions. If the devel­op­ment hereby approved is to be car­ried out in phases, then a notice of com­ple­tion should be sub­mit­ted at the com­ple­tion of each phase.
