This document contains a proposal to the Cairngorms National Park Authority Planning Committee to permanently retain a car park with toilet and refuse facilities, located at Land At Clarack Farmhouse Dinnet Aboyne AB34 5LP, that previously had temporary planning permission. The proposal includes details of the site, its history, a habitats regulations appraisal, and relevant policies from the National Planning Framework 4 (NPF4) and the Cairngorms National Park Local Development Plan. Consultations were carried out, and concerns were raised regarding the toilet block's appearance, signage, and potential impact on the landscape. The recommendation is to approve the proposal subject to conditions, including implementing toilet block screening, a signage and interpretation strategy, measures to promote recycling, maintaining visibility splays, and adhering to the approved landscape plan.
