This document contains the Scottish Ministers' decision regarding a planning application for the relocation of Balavil Home Farm and construction of new farm buildings, farmyard, associated utilities/drainage, landscape and access road to new farm at Land East of Lynovoan, Lynchat, Kingussie. The application, submitted by ABC Planning & Design on behalf of Balavil Estate Limited, was initially called in by the Cairngorms National Park Authority (CNPA) and subsequently by the Scottish Ministers for determination. The application was considered via written representations, and the Scottish Ministers have granted planning permission in principle, subject to attached conditions, emphasizing the need to align with the A9 Dualling Scheme. The decision is final but subject to legal challenges within 6 weeks, and copies of the report have been sent to relevant parties, including Highland Council, the CNPA, and Transport Scotland.
