COM­MUNITY COUN­CIL COMMENTS

BOAT OF GARTEN AND VICIN­ITY COM­MUNITY COUN­CIL RESPONSE TO APPLIC­A­TION ΝΟ 2019/0215/DET

1) We do not wish to object to this applic­a­tion as we are in gen­er­al sup­port of it. How­ever we would be grate­ful if the fol­low­ing com­ments could be taken into con­sid­er­a­tion: 2) We like the gen­er­al design of prop­er­ties and the mix of houses and single storey and the mater­i­als being used.

3) There is no indic­a­tion from High­land Coun­cil Roads Depart­ment that they have made any com­ment. There is sig­ni­fic­ant con­cern about the junc­tion at the A95.

4) We are very con­cerned that the pro­posed path to the vil­lage will not be suit­able because it meets up with Milton Loch which is a very import­ant area of Biod­iversity. We made this point in our pre­vi­ous response but con­sider that we MUST make it again. This was com­men­ted on by BOGWIG(Boat of Garten Wild­life Group) ourselves and the Com­munity Com­pany. We under­stand it was also com­men­ted on by the Access Officer from CNPA who also had con­cerns. We under­stand the Rook­ery is to be kept.

We would like some reas­sur­ance on all these matters.
