Wj Beatson. Planning consent
Planning consent in principle was secured on appeal 05/12/17
Ref 16/02074/ful (for 8 dwellings) from Perth & Kinross Council. (Mr Andy Baxter . The section 75 legal agreement has still not been signed. Most of the sheds have already been demolished The owners intend on applying for 3 or 4 more houses to the south of the site to replace the 100’ x 45’ shed which would be demolished.
Affordable Housing
As the development comprises 5 or more residential units there is a requirement for affordable housing provision. Considering the rural location of the site, a commuted payment in lieu of onsite provision is considered appropriate. The development attracts an affordable housing requirement of 2 units (8 / 25%) which means a commuted payment of £53,000 (2 x £26,500) is required.
Primary Education
As the local primary school is operating at over 80% capacity, there is a requirement for developer contributions on the non-affordable housing (6). To this end, a developer contribution of £38,370 (6 x £6,395) is required as part of this proposal.
Transport Infrastructure
The site lies within the reduced contributions area for contributions. To this end, Transport Contributions of £18,472 (6 x £2,639,2 x £1,319) are required.
(The total cost payable in terms of the Section 75 agreement above will likely total about £13,000 per plot).
