This document contains an objection, dated 30 January 2024, to a planning application (2024/0005/DET) for the erection of six houses on land south of 22 Kerrow Drive in Kingussie. The author, an owner of a property adjacent to the proposed development site, raises concerns about the density of the proposed housing, its potential negative impacts on drainage, flood risk, subsidence, environmental/ecological factors, and community wellbeing. They argue that the development doesn't adequately consider existing landscape features or natural drainage and overestimates the achievable number of properties for the site. They also reference Scottish Government's Designing Streets guidance and highlight potential conflicts. The author requests a site boundary amendment, a reduction in housing density, more ecological surveying, retention of existing features and improved drainage. Finally, they make suggestions regarding construction noise and developer liability for any damage caused by the development.
