This document contains representations made regarding a proposed community housing development at Balnespick Farm. The representation raises concerns that the development of three houses on what is considered low-grade agricultural land could set a negative precedent for future development within the Cairngorms National Park (CNP), fragmenting the wild landscape. It questions how the development aligns with UK and European habitat regulations and the Scottish Biodiversity Strategy, particularly regarding the protection of priority habitats and species. It also highlights potential issues with the site access, including the impact on local biodiversity due to drainage works and increased traffic on a single-track road, and the cost and environmental impact of relocating previously buried power cables. The representation suggests the planning authority should instruct the developer to produce a full Environmental Impact Statement.
