Land at West Kinross

Welcome to the West Kinross Pre-Application Consultation Event

Feedback

In regard to the online consultation event held on the 29th of September 2022, the conclusions gathered have been considered below. 


The online public consultation event was well attended. A total 48 participants used the live chat feature and provided questions to the Miller Team. A total of 43 emails were sent in response to the event. 


Throughout the consultation process, participants raised several issues. These are categorised in the adjacent pie chart, highlighting the issues most frequently brought to our attention. These include, but are not limited to:


  •  Impact on Davies Park (including access arrangements / loss of open space)

  •  Kinross Housing Land Supply

  •  Impact on local amenities (including schools, GP’s, Dentists)

  •  Noise and Air Pollution from M90

  •  Drainage Capacity and Flooding

Considering the above, Miller Homes are currently reviewing all matters with the project team. As previously advised, we are awaiting the outcome of various Technical Reports. These outcomes will be crucial to establish a cohesive case to PKC, supporting the suitability of this location for housing. These Technical Reports will better clarify the position regarding issues raised and will be submitted in conjunction with any future planning application


While Miller Homes are considering all issues brought to our attention, we are mindful of the initial level of objection received regarding the impact the proposal will have on the setting and useability of Davies Park (with particular regard to the proposed access arrangements). Since Miller Homes last met with the community, a revised access proposal has been designed in more detail and we look forward to receiving your thoughts on this.
