This document contains a committee report for a planning application submitted by Davall Developments Ltd, proposing the erection of six semi-detached houses at Land 65M South of 22 Kerrow Drive, Kingussie. The application site is 0.295 hectares of improved grazing land on the north-west side of Kingussie, forming part of a larger, consented residential development. Vehicular access is planned from Kerrow Drive, and existing informal paths will be formalised. The Highland Council (Transport Planning Team) and the Highland Council (Flood Risk Management Team) have no objections, subject to certain recommendations and conditions, and Scottish Water has no objection to the proposal. One letter of objection was received, raising concerns about drainage, flooding, design, and ecology. The report concludes that the proposed development is of a design, scale, and location that would help meet a local need and can be developed without significant landscape or environmental effects, subject to conditions, therefore the committee recommends approval for the erection of the houses.
