Vehicle access to the site is proposed via a private road (core path EROL/8) that is accessed from an unclassified public road. Perth and Kinross Council has no maintenance obligations on the private road, and the upgrade of this road to a suitable standard is a private matter. It is however recommended that the applicant demonstrate that suitable passing places exist along the private road to accommodate additional vehicular traffic movements. In-curtilage parking provision is deemed adequate. Insofar as the Roads matters are concerned, I have no objections to this application on the following condition(s). Recommended planning condition(s) Recommended informative(s) for applicant Date comments returned 31 March 2026.

M e m o r To Development Management & Building Standards Service Manager Your ref 26/00324/FLL Date 7 April 2026 Communities a n d u m From Environmental Health Our ref OLW Pullar House, 35 Kinnoull Street, Perth PH1 5GD Consultation on an Application for Planning Permission 26/00324/FLL RE: Erection of dwellinghouse and garage/ancillary accommodation unit, Land 50 Metres South West Of Russaig House, Errol for Mr Mark Urquhart I refer to your letter dated 17 March 2026 in connection with the above application and have the following comments to make. Contaminated Land Comments A previous land use that has led to the contamination of a site is generally identifiable from historical records. However, consideration needs to be given to situations where this is not so apparent and there is the potential for contamination to cause a constraint in the redevelopment of specific sites. The proposed site falls within the former Errol RAF Airfield and historic maps highlight a former poultry farm in the immediate vicinity of the site. Therefore, if planning permission is granted in respect of this development I would recommend that the following condition is applied within the consent. Condition EH41 Prior to the commencement of works on site, an evaluation for the potential of the site to be affected by contamination by a previous use should be undertaken and as a minimum, a Preliminary Risk Assessment (Phase 1 Desk Study) will be submitted for consideration by the Council as Planning Authority. If after the preliminary risk assessment identifies the need for further assessment, an intrusive investigation should be undertaken to identify; I. the nature, extent and type(s) of contamination on the site. II. measures to treat/remove contamination to ensure the site is fit for the use proposed. III. measures to deal with contamination during construction works. IV. condition of the site on completion of decontamination measures. Prior to the completion or bringing into use of any part of the development the agreed measures to decontaminate the site shall be fully implemented as approved by the Council as Planning Authority. Validation that the scheme has been fully implemented must also be submitted to the Council as Planning Authority.

SW Business connection application has been submitted, we will review the availability of capacity at that time and advise the applicant accordingly. Surface Water For reasons of sustainability and to protect our customers from potential future sewer flooding, Scottish Water will not accept any surface water connections into our combined sewer system. There may be limited exceptional circumstances where we would allow such a connection for brownfield sites only, however this will require significant justification from the customer taking account of various factors including legal, physical, and technical challenges. In order to avoid costs and delays where a surface water discharge to our combined sewer system is anticipated, the developer should refer to our guides which can be found at https://www.scottishwater.co.uk/Help-and-Resources/Document-Hub/Business-and- Developers/Connecting-to-Our-Network which detail our policy and processes to support the application process, evidence to support the intended drainage plan should be submitted at the technical application stage where we will assess this evidence in a robust manner and provide a decision that reflects the best option from environmental and customer perspectives. Next Steps: Single house developments; unless utilising private water or drainage sources, are required to submit a Water Connection Application and Waste Water Application via our Customer Portal to allow us to fully appraise the proposals. Please note that Single House developments are not required to submit a Pre-Development Enquiry form (PDE) however local network capacity will be assessed on receipt of application forms. Further information on our application and connection process for Single Household development can be found on our website https://www.scottishwater.co.uk/Business- and-Developers/NEW-Connecting-to-Our-Network/Single-Household-Customers I trust the above is acceptable however if you require any further information regarding this matter, please contact me on 0800 389 0379 or via the e-mail address below or at planningconsultations@scottishwater.co.uk.
