This document contains a planning application for the Cairngorms National Park Authority's planning committee regarding the formation, maintenance, and upgrading of a vehicular access track located south of the B955 in Glen Clova. The application seeks retrospective permission for work on a track that has existed since 2008. While the landscape officer notes potential negative visual impacts due to the track's contrast with the surrounding environment, they acknowledge that restoration works included in the application could reduce these effects. The recommendation is to approve the application, subject to conditions, mainly the implementation of measures to prevent water pollution affecting the River South Esk Special Area of Conservation.
