Item9AA20230189DETLagganTrackPriorApprovalCommitteeReport
This document contains information regarding a planning application submitted by Mr Kevin Fletcher on 1 May 2023, reference number 2023/0189/DET, for prior approval for forestry related building works (non-residential) at Land At Crathie Lodge Laggan Newtonmore within the Cairngorms National Park. The proposal involves creating an all-terrain vehicle (ATV)/Argo track, up to 2m wide and 750m long, for forestry works. A Habitats Regulations Appraisal (HRA) concluded there would be no adverse effect on the River Spey Special Area of Conservation (SAC) with appropriate pollution control measures. While the Laggan Community Council neither opposed nor supported the plan, the Cairngorms National Park Authority (CNPA) Ecology Officer requested surveys for protected species and breeding birds before construction begins. Subject to these conditions and compliance with the National Planning Framework 4 (NPF4) and the Cairngorms National Park Local Development Plan 2021, the recommendation is to approve the prior approval for the forestry related building works. A Construction Environment Management Plan (CEMP) will need to be approved before any construction can take place.
