Item10AA20230210DETBadaguishWigwamsCommitteeReport
This document contains a planning application to the Cairngorms National Park Authority (Park Authority) for the Speyside Trust to retain ten wigwam accommodation units at Badaguish Outdoor Centre. The Park Authority's recommendation is to approve the application subject to conditions, since the retention of the wigwams aligns with national and local policies supporting tourism and recreation. A Habitats Regulations Appraisal has been undertaken and concludes that the capercaillie numbers are stable and that the approved Visitor Management Plan remains an appropriate level of control. The conditions include that the wigwams are used only as short-term tourist accommodation, that the total number of wigwams on the site does not exceed 35, that the wigwams are removed within 3 years or when 25 wigwams are erected on the land to the north, and that monitoring is undertaken in accordance with the Visitor Management Plan.
