Strategic Settlements 

Aviemore 


i Other relevant planning documents – The 
Aviemore Masterplan September 1997. [ This 
document is currently being reviewed in the 
form of the Aviemore Design Framework and 
will be adopted in support of the Local Plan. It 
will then be considered as a material 
consideration in the determination of planning 
applications within Aviemore. ]

Proposals 


AV/H1: Situated to the north of Aviemore 
Highland Resort, this site [ has detailed planning 
permission for 161 dwellings. ]

AV/H2 and H3: as a combined site these have an 
outstanding outline planning permission for up to 
104 dwellings. 

AV/H2: [ An outline planning application is with 
the National Park Authority for the development 
of this 1.7ha site. The consideration of reserved 
matters on this site will ]  need to work within the 
existing woodland clearings to minimise the loss 
of trees and retain the natural screening and 
setting of the site. Part of this site lies within 
SEPA’s indicative 1 in 200 year flood risk area. A 
detailed flood risk assessment will therefore be 
required to accompany any development 
proposals for this site. 

AV/H3: [  An outline planning application is with 
the National Park Authority for the development 
of this 5.5ha. The consideration of reserved 
matters on this site will  ]  have to take into 
consideration the SEPA indicative 1:200 year 
flood risk masps and a detailed flood risk 
assessment will be required. 

AV/ED1: [  The existing Dalfaber Industrial Estate 
and Cairngorm Technology Park provide 
opportunities for economic development 
proposals to support the economy of Aviemore 
and the surrounding area. An area of 0.5Ha to 
the north of Dalfaber Industrial Estate is included 
to allow for future expansion. Currently used for 
informal recreation, pedestrian links through the 
site should be protected.  ]

AV/ED2: This 3.5Ha site south of Dalfaber 
Industrial Estate and the Cairngorm Technology 
Park allows 
for its future expansion when the current site 
reaches capacity. [  This flexibility to grow will 
support future expansion options within 
Aviemore and allow for adequate choice in site 
identification.  ]

AV/ED3: Aviemore Highland Resort will continue 
to develop and enhance its facilities. [  Closer links 
with the village centre should be developed, and 
will be highlighted by the revised Aviemore 
Design Framework.  ]  Part of this site lies within 
SEPA’s indicative 1 in 200 year flood risk area. A 
detailed flood risk assessment will therefore be 
required to accompany any development 
proposals for this site. [  In developing further 
proposals for this site, access arrangements 
should not affect the A9 as a trunk road, and 
should use the local road network. ] 

[ AV/ED4: Opportunities for small economic 
growth to complement the existing Myrtlefield 
Industrial Estate exist, and any new developments 
should also seek to enhance the area and its 
surroundings.  ]

AV/C1: This site used for various community uses 
is to be retained as such, with an option for the 
development of a new school. 

AV/C2: Land within the Aviemore Highland 
Resort site  [ will be retained for use as a public 
park.  ]

[ AV/Env: ]  A number of open spaces [ and land which 
contributes to the setting of Aviemore are 
identified and ]  will be protected from [ adverse ] 
development.
