Item7Appendix2Objections20200105DET

This document contains objections to planning application 2020/0105/DET for the installation of two tube slides and the extension/realignment of an existing tube slide at Coire Cas Car Park on Cairngorm Mountain. The North East Mountain Trust (NEMT) objects because they believe applications are being brought forward without a promised master plan and want the color of the slides to blend with the surroundings. Another commenter, Michael Dunn, believes no rationale has been presented for installing play equipment on Cairngorm Mountain and that the proposal should come after a development framework has been presented. The Cairngorms Campaign objects because the application has been submitted as one in a series of planning applications without public consultation or habitat assessments, and they believe tube slides are inappropriate for the area and are contrary to climate change targets. The Badenoch & Strathspey Conservation Group (BSCG) objects, stating that fairground-style rides should not be in this location and that the proposal does not comply with Cairngorms National Park Authority (CNPA) Local Development Plan (LDP) 2015 policies.
