KINROSS-SHIRE LOCAL COMMITTEE Minute of meeting of the Kinross-shire Local Committee held virtually on Thursday 18 August 2022 at 5.00pm. Present: Councillors W Robertson (Convener), D Cuthbert (Vice-Convener), N Freshwater and R Watters; S Bruce-Jones (Fossoway Community Council); D Colliar (Kinross Community Council); Margaret Ponton (Glenfarg Community Council); and M Thomson (Milnathort and Orwell Community Council) (from item 4(i) onwards). In Attendance: B Renton, L Haxton, D McKeown (Communities); L Simpson, K Molley, A Brown and M Pasternak (Corporate and Democratic Services); and D Morris on Behalf of A Miller (Portmoak Community Council). Apology: F Principe-Gillespie (Cleish and Blairadam Community Council). Councillor W Robertson, Convener, Presiding. The Convener led discussion on items 1-4 and Vice-Convener on items 5 and 6. 1. WELCOME AND APOLOGIES The Convener welcomed all present to the meeting and an apology was noted as above. 2. DECLARATIONS OF INTEREST There were no Declarations of Interest made in terms of the Councillors’ Code of Conduct. 3. MINUTE OF PREVIOUS MEETING The minute of meeting of the Kinross-shire Local Committee of 30 June 2022 was submitted and approved as a correct record. 4. MATTERS ARISING (i) Road Safety D McKeown, Senior Technician, Communities, provided a verbal update on traffic regulation orders and various road safety projects throughout Kinross- shire. He advised that 11 traffic regulation orders need to be formalised within the Kinross-shire ward. Drawings are being prepared and letters are to be issued to Elected Members, Community Council Members and Police Scotland. It is proposed to retain 20mph speed limits within rural communities which have limited footways and at other sites, the proposal is to remove the 40mph speed buffer and introduce 20mph countdown signs which should be more effective in reducing speed. He added that officers plan to arrange meetings with ward councillors to access the list of road safety projects, with the intention of focusing on the priorities within the communities. Follow up discussions will then be held with Community Council members. The Road 3 Page 5 of 28
Page 6
Safety team are currently focussing on the cycling, walking and safer routes which have been agreed by committee. These include vehicle activated signs, a number of which are in Kinross-shire. The plan being to get these installed this financial year with priority being given to settlements without any vehicle activated signs at present. Issues raised by members, included the new 30mph signs for Carnbo and the 40mph road marking within the 30mph zone in Glenfarg. (ii) Blairingone Primary School L Haxton, Community Planning and Policy Team Leader, provided a verbal update on Blairingone Primary School. He advised that conversations are ongoing with Fossoway Community Development Trust regarding the community asset transfer request of the site and an expression of interest form had been submitted. It had been agreed that more information would be required from the Development Trust to see what their plans are with the asset and what benefit it would bring to the Blairingone and surrounding communities. Once more details had been received, officers would be able to provide constructive feedback to the group. THE COMMITTEE AGREED TO VARY THE ORDER OF BUSINESS AT THIS POINT. 6. 2021/22 & 2022/23 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS There was submitted a report by Head of Finance (22/188) providing the unaudited outturn for Financial Year 2021/22, and the estimated income and Fund balance for Financial Year 2022/23. Resolved: (i) The unaudited Income and Expenditure to 31 March 2022 for the Kinross Common Good Fund for the 2021/22 Financial Year, as set out in Appendix 1 to report 22/188, be noted. (ii) The projected Income to 31 March 2023 for the Kinross Common Good Fund for 2022/23 Financial Year, as set out in Appendix 2 to report 22/188, be noted. (iii) It was agreed that the proceeds from the recent sale of land at Myre Park, be partially added to the ring-fenced funds, thereby increasing them to £160,000. 5.

Agreed by Perth and Kinross Council on 9 November 2022 Emergency Motion Depute Provost A Parrott and Councillor J Duff With Regard to The Proposals of The Boundary Commission for Scotland Announced on 8 November 2022 It is proposed that Perth and Kinross Council agree that the response statement below with regard to the proposals of the Boundary Commission for Scotland in respect of Westminster Parliamentary Constituencies should be submitted to the Boundary Commission for Scotland as a response to their further consultation, requesting amendment of the proposals in order to improve the provisions in respect of Perth and Kinross. RESPONSE STATEMENT Perth and Kinross Council welcomes the proposals set out on 8 November 2022 by the Boundary Commission for Scotland, considering that they represent, overall, a very considerable improvement on the initial proposals that were circulated earlier. Perth and Kinross Council, however, wishes to respond to the Boundary Commission for Scotland’s further consultation to make clear our resolute opposition to certain aspects of the proposals and our wish that the amendments as set out below are made to the present proposals. With regard to the proposed “North Tayside” constituency, the boundaries for this constituency are accepted but it is requested that this constituency be named instead “North Perthshire and Angus” in order to better reflect the communities included. With regard to the Scotlandwell area of the Kinross-shire Ward, Perth and Kinross Council strongly object to the inclusion of this area in the proposed “Glenrothes” constituency and it is requested that this area be included instead in the proposed “Perth and Loch Leven” constituency. The historic county of Kinross has never previously been split between Parliamentary constituencies. The present proposal breaches the design principles of not crossing Council boundaries and not breaking community ties. It is accepted that adopting this request will require further minor adjustment in Fife to ensure the proposed “Glenrothes” constituency remains above the minimum legal electorate number by adding about 300 voters to the proposed “Glenrothes” constituency from the proposed “North East Fife” constituency. Scotlandwell can be added to the proposed “Perth and Loch Leven” constituency without exceeding the maximum legal electorate number. With regard to the areas of Strathallan Ward included in the proposed “Clackmannanshire and Forth Valley” constituency, Perth and Kinross Council object as strongly as possible to this proposal submitting that these areas have no links to the rest of the proposed constituency that they are included with, indeed have no direct road links at all and would be very poorly represented in the new arrangements. The present proposal breaches substantially all the design principles of not crossing Council boundaries, giving regard to local 5 Page 9 of 28
Page 10
geography, causing minimum disruption and not breaking community ties. It is accepted that the maximum electorate rules preclude the inclusion of these parts of Strathallan Ward in the proposed “Perth and Loch Leven” constituency but it is strongly urged that these parts of Strathallan Ward be included instead with the adjacent proposed “Stirling” constituency. The Strathallan area has historic links with adjacent parts of the proposed “Stirling” constituency that until 1975 were part of historic Perthshire. Accepting this change would mean the proposed “Stirling” and “Clackmannanshire and Forth Valley” constituencies would still comply with the rules regarding electorate size. With regard to the proposed “Perth and Loch Leven” constituency, it is requested that this constituency, its boundaries amended as proposed above, be named instead “Perth, South Perthshire and Kinross” in order to better reflect the communities included and consider in the name the electorate ahead of a physical feature of the landscape. With regard to the proposed “Stirling” constituency, it is requested that, if parts of Strathallan Ward are included as proposed above, this constituency is named instead “Stirling and Strathallan” to better reflect the communities included. The initial proposals of the Boundary Commission for Scotland unacceptably divided Perth and Kinross between no less than 5 proposed constituencies, with consequent additional council staff workload at election times, when the electorate in Perth and Kinross amounts to about 1.5 constituencies. The present proposals still unacceptably divide Perth and Kinross between 4 proposed constituencies. The requests made above which Perth and Kinross Council strongly urge the Boundary Commission to adopt divide Perth and Kinross between only 3 proposed constituencies while greatly strengthening adherence to the Boundary Commission principles and only requiring one minor further change within Fife.

CATCH – Loch Leven (Report No. 22/289) An overview – October 2022 David Cairns Introduction A community group has been established called CATCH – Loch Leven, (Climate Action Through Community Heating), with its website https://catch-lochleven.org. This working group is intended to be short lived (perhaps one year) and exploratory in nature, either showing a path to a subsequent operating vehicle, or halting with a negative conclusion about the wisdom of continuance. A good outcome is to justify and secure funding to commission a credible, commercial feasibility study to support subsequent development and implementation plans. CATCH Goal To describe the cost, benefits, and challenges, for all stakeholders, of implementing a District Heating (DH) system which can reduce the energy costs for the community of Kinross and Milnathort (the Towns). Along with utilising other sources, this could draw heat from Loch Leven, with potentially helpful consequences for the stressed ecosystem of the internationally significant nature reserve. Motivation Arguably, we are currently in a Climate Emergency, with international ambition to head quickly to NetZero emissions. Alongside this, there are strong economic pressures which act unequally on different segments of the population. People are hurting. By acting together, we believe that we make a bigger difference to address cost of living issues while also reducing our impact on climate change, beyond that which individual efforts can achieve. What is a District Heating system? District Heating systems are much more commonplace on the continent than in the UK, following different responses to the 1973 energy crisis, where the UK had access to ‘cheap’ gas from the North Sea. DH systems comprise two separate elements: • A distribution network of pipes carrying heat to individual houses, community buildings and commercial businesses. Installing this would necessitate disruption of the streets, but the network would typically have a working life of many decades, protecting the incomes of families in the Towns. • An Energy Centre, which can be physically modular and distributed. This may also incorporate storage elements to mitigate the daily or seasonal availability of energy from renewable sources. While the easiest integration with old boiler/radiator systems is using high temperature heat (80oC), recent systems, seeking to reduce transmission losses, have tended to reduce supply temperature relying on more local step up for household requirements. Newer, well-insulated housing stock, ideally with underfloor heating, can work effectively with 35-50oC heat. The choice of operating temperature for the network drives the cost of integration for households, capex and operating costs for the system, and the simplicity of connecting a multiplicity of renewable heat sources. There are big ramifications for the funding logic and the hurdles limiting adoption according to the balance of ‘grid’ and household investment. 6 Page 11 of 28

CATCH – Loch Leven An overview – October 2022 David Cairns As there is a mix of housing build standards in these Towns, including historic architecture in the conservation area, implementing highly effective insulation may be difficult, so street or estate level step-up for local delivery of higher temperatures may be appropriate. Looking round the Towns, there are many sources of potential energy consistent with supporting such a network, including the Loch, wastewater treatment, commercial properties which generate waste heat as a by-product of their processes, the ice rink, community roofs which could take solar PV etc. Ownership of DH schemes follow different approaches. Strong community involvement has potential to deliver significant ongoing benefits for the Towns into the future, reinvesting any profits. Benefits Sought A soundly implemented DH system has potential to deliver many benefits, including: • Low-cost heating for residents, businesses, and community premises. This is about economies associated with larger scale systems. • Move the CO2 emissions needle significantly, by replacing gas with renewable sources of heat, providing access to green technologies for more people. • Cooling the Loch, reversing some of the impacts of climate change, in a way which might be a positive exemplar of what could be done elsewhere. • Acting on this, perhaps in a Community Development Trust manner, might stimulate richer community involvement and further projects, making the Towns more attractive places to live, creating local jobs too. Risk Factors to be Managed There are many challenges to be described and effective solutions identified, including: • Complexity of stakeholders – there are many with widely varying needs • Protection of the Loch. Any envisaged system must do no harm to the ecosystem, indeed, should deliver positive impact for the RAMSAR Nature Reserve. • Land and access agreements. Infrastructure needs to be placed at relevant positions, requiring agreement of landowners, planning authorities etc. • Ownership. The community should have a strong role in this, to help support a high buy-in level for energy usage, assuring access to lower cost finance options and coping with implementation disruption. • Insulation of housing stock. A deliberate programme to be “DH ready” will be required, supporting folks with limited capital and/or motivation or just because it is difficult to do, to improve their house energy efficiency. • The economics must work for heat users. There are alternative individual approaches. The DH route must be demonstrably better. It must be fundable. Forward Path CATCH is currently working to describe elements of the case, with the aim of being able to identify a relevant partner for the feasibility study, shape good questions to be answered by it and to secure the necessary funding. With an initial rounded description, assuming there is a plausibly positive argument, key stakeholders can be approached to clarify any blocking issues needing careful and creative solutions.

Page 13
CATCH – Loch Leven An overview – October 2022 David Cairns Work continues to: • Identify good models to describe the sustainable heat capacity of the Loch • Search for literature which can help illuminate the potential for ecosystem benefits resulting from temperature reduction • Extract a street-by-street analysis of heat needs which, along with pipe lengths, should enable a first pass estimate of the size, costs, and plausible viability of the scheme, and clarify those relative to the contra-factual case of alternative available energy approaches. • Communicate with stakeholders, including outreach to residents about likely engagement levels. This is not a difficult story to communicate – provided the numbers are right. Ideally, we will be in position to commission a sound feasibility study before the end of the first half of 2023.

PERTH AND KINROSS COUNCIL Kinross-shire Local Committee 24 November 2022 SUPPLY AND DEMAND FOR SERVICED EMPLOYMENT LAND IN THE KINROSS WARD Report by Head of Planning and Development (Report No. 22/290) 1. PURPOSE 1.1 The purpose of this report is to provide information to the Committee on the current situation regarding the supply and demand of serviced employment land in the Kinross area. It also covers progress the Council is making in relation to developing its own existing employment land. 2. RECOMMENDATION 2.1 It is recommended that Committee: • Observes the contents of this report. 3. STRUCTURE OF REPORT 3.1 This report is structured over the following sections: • Section 4: Background/Main Issues • Section 5: Proposals • Section 6: Conclusion • Appendices 4. BACKGROUND / MAIN ISSUES 4.1 The Kinross-shire Area Committee requested information on the current market situation in relation to the supply and demand for serviced employment land in the Kinross area. Employment land is defined using the Town & Country Planning Use Classes Order that is: Class 4 (Business), Class 5 (General Industrial) and Class 6 (Storage/Distribution). Class 1 (Shops) is not normally regarded as an appropriate use of allocated employment land. 4.2 The Perth and Kinross Employment Land and Property Market Analysis is currently being produced by Ryden Commercial Property Agents and Chartered Surveyors on the instructions of Perth & Kinross Council. Part of its findings will focus on the Kinross area. The finalised Ryden report is intended to inform and underpin the development of the new Local Development Plan (LDP3), the review of Perth & Kinross Council’s Commerical Property 7 Page 15 of 28
Page 16
Investment Strategy, its commercial land and property portfolio, and the Commercial Property Investment Programme (CPIP). Planning Policy Context 4.3 Scottish Planning Policy and the National Planning Framework (NPF) currently define planning policy and set out the Scottish Government’s planning policies in relation to economic development. The NPF’s spatial strategy shows where there will be opportunities for growth and regeneration, investment in the low carbon economy, environmental enhancement and improved connections across the country. 4.4 The draft NPF4 was published in Autumn 2021 with the over-arching aims of managing development and land use in the long-term public interest and ensuring Scotland meets its goal of achieving net zero emissions. A key element is the national spatial strategy and associated regional action areas. The national spatial strategy focuses on creating places that are sustainable, liveable, productive and distinctive. 4.5 It identifies 5 geographic ‘action areas’, which establish development priorities for each area. Kinross is within the Central urban transformation area defined as areas for “transforming and pioneering a new era of low carbon urban living”. There is therefore an expectation that the Local Development Plans will ensure sufficient land is designated to deliver this development priority. Kinross Local Area 4.6 As in other areas of Perth and Kinross, Kinross has a growing population as illustrated below: Source: National Records of Scotland Page 16 of 28
Page 17
SUPPLY OF INDUSTRIAL LAND AND BUILDINGS 4.7 The majority of industrial space in Kinross was built in the 1980s, as with most places in Scotland. 7% of available floorspace in Perth and Kinross is in Kinross, with the majority in Perth itself. 7% of the industrial space is currently vacant. The tables below show industrial stock by decade built, followed by current industrial supply. The quantities and size bands are given in square feet. EMPLOYMENT LAND AUDIT 4.8 The Perth & Kinross Employment Land Audit is produced annually to provide up to date and accurate information on the supply and availability of employment land for business and industrial use within the Council area. The land is categorised into the following criteria: • total available employment land • marketable land Page 17 of 28
Page 18
• major constrained land • minor constrained land • immediately available land KINROSS AND MILNATHORT 4.9 In Kinross area, there are 9 sites allocated in the current LDP totalling just over 19 ha. The majority of these are near the M90 with the others along the A977. All the undeveloped sites are considered to have some development constraints and, as such, none are immediately available. The principal employment sites are: • The largest site is 7.75 ha at Stirling Road, Milnathort (E19 in the LDP) part of which contains 2 vacant warehouse buildings and is therefore partially serviced. There is M90 access to/from the north but no southbound access and no prospect of new slip roads within the next 10 years. The site is divided between 3 owners with varying ambitions for the site. This site is potentially a location for a small or rural focused business. • Also in Milnathort, a site on Old Perth Road has been allocated extending to 2.9 ha. (E20 in the LDP). Despite its location, access to the M90 is limited and the site is un-serviced. Although there is demand in this general area the owner currently has no intention to develop. There are also potential flood risk and landscape issues. The future of this site will be re-considered in the next LDP. • At Auld Mart Road, (E21 in the LDP), Aldi has submitted a planning application 22/01004/FLL for a supermarket in Milnathort. The proposal for retail use is contrary to the spatial strategy in the Local Development Plan. The planning application is on an allocated/safeguarded employment land site. If permitted, it would involve loss of 2 office buildings (Market House – approx. 196sqm, and Kingfisher House, 538sqm), and 0.5ha of safeguarded employment land/buildings, plus 0.7 ha of allocated future employment land. • Balado Bridge in Kinross is 1.9ha and a former MOD site. The site has been in the plan since LDP1 with no progress. It is serviced and in private ownership. Aero Space Kinross is in the process of acquiring Page 18 of 28
Page 19
the building, having been allocated £1.6m from the Tay Cities Region Deal. ▪ South Kinross -1.2ha, and Old Perth Road - 2.9ha, requires flood risk assessments, and noise attenuation measures. ▪ At Junction Road (Kinross West), there were 5 sites which were created and serviced by Perth & Kinross Council over the last 8 years. The particulars of the site are attached at Appendix 1. • Site 1 was subject to a development lease which did not proceed. On re-marketing, a closing date was set for 28 October 2022 and 4 offers have been received. These are currently being considered. • Site 2 was purchased in March 2016 for the creation of a new dance studio which was completed in 2018. • Site 3 was sold In February 2017 to Kipper Plant Hire who have built a new commercial plant hire facility within the curtilage of the site. • Site 4 was under offer to be developed as speculative units. However, the purchaser backed out due to recent changes in the economic climate. Recent consideration of proposed flood mitigation works in the area show that part of this site may not be developable until these works are complete. Council officers are considering options for this site within the restricted area. • Site 5 is under offer to Alan Mackay Machinery Ltd, after a closing date in February of this year. The purchaser is bound to develop out the building under a development licence prior to taking title. 4.10 Regarding the other undeveloped sites in the area, there are identified issues of ownership and landscape impacts associated with the Local Landscape Area designation, as well as ensuring any employment uses complement nearby residential properties.

DEMAND FOR INDUSTRIAL LAND AND BUILDINGS 4.11 The industrial property market is performing well across Scotland with strong demand, low vacancy rates and rising rents. 4.12 In Perth and Kinross vacancy levels are low at the main industrial estates and known asking rents range from £2.50 up to £6.30 per sq.ft, with reported peak rents of £8 for new-build small units. 4.13 The largest proportion of enquiries received by Perth & Kinross Council (Invest in Perth) were for industrial space. Of those who provided details of the size of unit they required, most enquiries related to smaller space (below 5,000 sq.ft.). However, there was one enquiry looking for 42,000 sq.ft. for a processing facility and another for 80-100,000 sq.ft. for a warehouse. Most industrial enquiries were for Perth itself. There was one enquiry made to Invest in Perth, in July last year, for 2,000 sq ft of industrial space in Kinross. 4.14 The marketing agents for Kinross West are Graham & Sibbald and they have recorded a considerable number of enquiries over the years with regards to selling the sites. Not all these enquirers have followed through to being potential purchasers, but there has been consistent interest in the sites. At the most recent closing date in February 2022, offers were received from 3 parties who were able to purchase the land. Two of these offers were from developers who advised that they had potential tenants to take some of the developed space. The third and successful party was an owner occupier, as mentioned above. 5. PROPOSALS 5.1 This paper is for information purposes and makes no proposals for further action within it other than noting that work on LDP3 will include an assessment of supply and demand for employment land in the Kinross-shire area. 6. CONCLUSION 6.1 Members to observe the information supplied within this report, and to consider the recent changes in market conditions which could affect future supply and demand.
