We believe this led to a failure to fully appreciate the sloping topography of the site and contributed to a lack of understanding of the proposal within its setting. We therefore recommend a site inspection is carried out by the committee members so they can fully understand the proposals. 16

Ms R McFadzean c/o NL Architects Nicholas Goward 48 West George Street Glasgow G2 1BP TOWN AND COUNTRY PLANNING (SCOTLAND) ACT Pullar House 35 Kinnoull Street PERTH PH1 5GD Date of Notice:25th May 2022 Application Reference: 21/02195/FLL I am directed by the Planning Authority under the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Acts currently in force, to refuse your application registered on 10th January 2022 for Planning Permission for Erection of a dwellinghouse Land 30 Metres West Of Wester Carmichael Cottage Forgandenny Road Bridge Of Earn David Littlejohn Head of Planning and Development Reasons for Refusal 1. The proposal is contrary to Policy 19 Housing in the Countryside of the Perth and Kinross Local Development Plan 2 (2019) and the associated Housing in the Countryside Supplementary Guidance 2020 (SG) as the scale/mass/design of the dwelling proposed would not meet the criteria outlined under Category 1 which requires that new housing respect the character, scale and form of the group, should not detract from the visual amenity of the group and that a high standard of residential amenity has not been provided for existing dwellings. 2. The proposal is contrary to Policies 1A and 1B (Placemaking) of the Perth and Kinross adopted Local Development Plan 2 (2019) and the Placemaking Supplementary Guidance 2020, which all seek to ensure that all new developments contribute positively to the quality of the surrounding built and natural environment, and that all proposals complement its surroundings in terms of appearance, height, scale, massing, materials, finishes and colours. Due to a combination of the scale, height, massing and appearance of the dwelling compounded by the tapering nature of the site and siting adjacent to a modest cottage the proposal is not considered to contribute positively to the surrounding environment. 59

REPORT OF HANDLING DELEGATED REPORT Ref No 21/02195/FLL Ward No P9- Almond And Earn Due Determination Date 9th March 2022 Draft Report Date 19th May 2022 Report Issued by JF Date20/05/22 PROPOSAL: Erection of a dwellinghouse LOCATION: Land 30 Metres West Of Wester Carmichael Cottage Forgandenny Road Bridge Of Earn SUMMARY: This report recommends refusal of the application as the development is considered to be contrary to the relevant provisions of the Development Plan and there are no material considerations apparent which justify setting aside the Development Plan. SITE VISIT: In line with established practices, the need to visit the application site has been carefully considered by the case officer. The application site and its context have been viewed by a variety of remote and electronic means, such as aerial imagery and Streetview, in addition to photographs submitted by interested parties. In addition the site was visited in early 2020 during the consideration of the previous application on the site. SITE PHOTOGRAPHS 61

BACKGROUND AND DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSAL The proposal is for the erection of a dwellinghouse at land west Of Wester Carmichael Cottage, Forgandenny Road, Bridge Of Earn. The site forms the garden ground and is bound by the public road to the north, a dwelling to the east and agricultural land to the west/south. The proposal is to erect a 1 ½ storey dwelling with extended rear elevation following the linear style of development. In principle permission was granted on the site in 2020. SITE HISTORY 20/00138/IPL Erection of a dwellinghouse (in principle) 30 March 2020 Application Approved PRE-APPLICATION CONSULTATION Pre application Reference: N/A NATIONAL POLICY AND GUIDANCE The Scottish Government expresses its planning policies through The National Planning Framework, the Scottish Planning Policy (SPP), Planning Advice Notes (PAN), Creating Places, Designing Streets, National Roads Development Guide and a series of Circulars. 62
Page 55
DEVELOPMENT PLAN The Development Plan for the area comprises the TAYplan Strategic Development Plan 2016-2036 and the Perth and Kinross Local Development Plan 2 (2019). TAYplan Strategic Development Plan 2016 – 2036 - Approved October 2017 Whilst there are no specific policies or strategies directly relevant to this proposal the overall vision of the TAYplan should be noted. The vision states “By 2036 the TAYplan area will be sustainable, more attractive, competitive and vibrant without creating an unacceptable burden on our planet. The quality of life will make it a place of first choice where more people choose to live, work, study and visit, and where businesses choose to invest and create jobs.” Perth and Kinross Local Development Plan 2 – Adopted November 2019 The Local Development Plan 2 (LDP2) is the most recent statement of Council policy and is augmented by Supplementary Guidance. The principal policies are: Policy 1A: Placemaking Policy 1B: Placemaking Policy 5: Infrastructure Contributions Policy 19: Housing in the Countryside Policy 32: Embedding Low & Zero Carbon Generating Technologies in New Development Policy 53B: Water Environment and Drainage: Foul Drainage Policy 53C: Water Environment and Drainage: Surface Water Drainage Policy 53E: Water Environment and Drainage: Water Supply Policy 60B: Transport Standards and Accessibility Requirements: New Development Proposals OTHER POLICIES Placemaking Supplementary Guidance Developer Contributions Supplementary Guidance Housing in the Countryside Supplementary Guidance CONSULTATION RESPONSES Development Contributions Officer Contribution required Conservation Team No impact on setting LBC Transport Planning No objection to formation of access Scottish Water No objection 63

REPRESENTATIONS No letters received ADDITIONAL STATEMENTS Screening Opinion EIA Not Required Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA): Environmental Report Not applicable Appropriate Assessment Habitats Regulations AA Not Required Design Statement or Design and Access Statement Submitted Report on Impact or Potential Impact eg Flood Risk Assessment Not Required APPRAISAL Sections 25 and 37 (2) of the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997 require that planning decisions be made in accordance with the development plan unless material considerations indicate otherwise. The Development Plan for the area comprises the approved TAYplan and the adopted LDP2. In this instance, section 14(2) of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) (Scotland) Act 1997 places a duty on planning authorities in determining such an application as this to have special regard to the desirability of preserving the building or its setting or any features of special architectural or historic interest which it possesses. The determining issues in this case are whether; the proposal complies with development plan policy; or if there are any other material considerations which justify a departure from policy. Policy Appraisal The principle of development has been established on the site through the in principle permission granted ref 20/00138/IPL. This application is to consider the detailed design of the proposals under Policy 1 Placemaking, Policy 19 Housing in the Countryside and the supplementary guidance for both policies. The principle of development on the site was approved under Category 1 Building Groups. This category states in relation to detailed proposals that new housing should respect the character, scale and form of the existing group, should not detract from the visual amenity of the group when viewed from the wider landscape and that a high standard of residential amenity will be provided for both existing and new housing. 64
Page 57
Policy 1 Placemaking states that the design, density and siting of development should respect the character and amenity of the place. Development should complement its surroundings in terms of appearance, height, scale, massing, materials, finishes and colours. The site narrows forming a triangular plot at the end of a row of dwellings. The row tapers towards the site with the scale of development decreasing. The row ranges from single storey dwellings which accommodate upper levels within steeper roof pitches using dormers/rooflights to traditional single storey cottages with low pitched roofs. Whilst it is accepted a number of these dwelling feature more substantial rear elevations on the road side they are overwhelming of modest scale. It is considered that the cumulative impact of different elements of the proposal would not respect the character and amenity of the area. The dwelling is large 1 1/2 storey and is sited where adjacent dwellings are single storey in appearance. The site levels have been utilised to try and mitigate the taller scale of the development so that the ground floor of the dwelling is partially screened by the higher road level and site boundaries however the first floor of the dwelling will be fully visible. The site will also have a new access formed to the west this will require site clearance to form an access ramp and visibility splays. This will further open up the site where it is currently contained and introduce large gable end view of the dwelling compounding the scale. The agent has sought to address the height by submitting a street elevation plan. Whilst this shows that in long views the dwelling will not be significantly higher there are still remaining concerns about the overall development within the site and how the dwelling will sit beside the modest neighbouring cottage. In this case it is considered that the development as proposed does not respect the character of development and it is considered that at this end of the row a more modest approach to the design was required. Design and Layout The dwelling is 1 ½ storey with traditional proportions/materials and contemporary design detailing. The roadside elevation will have the ground floor mostly screened with the 1st floor visible above the fence line. The upper floor on the roadside elevation has a narrow feature gable and rooflights which extend down to the wall head. To the rear the overall mass of the dwelling is substantial with large amounts of full height glazing and a projecting gable which links to a covered lower terrace and first floor balcony. Whilst I accept that the agent has made an attempt to contain the large detailed elevation to the rear the overall scale of the dwelling in combination with the height and formation of the new access results in a dwelling of such a scale and resulting design that which will jar with the existing modest traditional row of cottages. As with the principle of development being established on the site it is considered that a scaled back design could address concerns, but the agent has repeatedly 65
Page 58
chosen to justify individual design elements rather than address the overall scheme in relation to the site characteristics. Residential Amenity In addition to concerns about the overall mass/height the dwelling is sited 2.2m from the boundary with windows proposed at the first floor and a balcony at first floor. The agent has sought to address this by using an opaque glazing screens to the balcony and opaque glass on the windows in the east elevation. It is considered that the impact of overlooking should be designed out of the dwelling rather than by the inclusion of glazing which would need to be maintained in perpetuity. This adds to the concern that the dwelling proposed is not the correct design solution of this site which has a number of constraints. Roads and Access The development is proposed to be served by a new access formed to the west of the plot. Whilst Transport Planning have no objection the formation of the access as parking and visibility have been shown the level changes will require engineering to bridge the 1.8m difference between the road and site. As previously stated, the opening up of the site to accommodate a single access instead of utilising the access of the dwelling to the east will expose more of the large scale of the dwelling. Drainage and Flooding The site is not at risk of flooding. The plans detail the surface water outfall is to the existing burn and the existing foul treatment plant next door (within the ownership of the applicant) will be upgraded to accommodate the development. Conservation Considerations The neighbouring cottages are category Cs listed. It is considered that the development of the site would not have a detrimental impact on the immediate setting of the listed buildings. Developer Contributions Developer contributions are applicable on this site and would have been required in respect of education and transport infrastructure if the development had been supported. Economic Impact The economic impact of the proposal is likely to be minimal and limited to the construction phase of the development. VARIATION OF APPLICATION UNDER SECTION 32A This application was not varied prior to determination. 66
Page 59
PLANNING OBLIGATIONS AND LEGAL AGREEMENTS None required. DIRECTION BY SCOTTISH MINISTERS None applicable to this proposal. CONCLUSION AND REASONS FOR DECISION To conclude, the application must be determined in accordance with the adopted Development Plan unless material considerations indicate otherwise. In this respect, the proposal is considered to be contrary to the Development Plan. Account has been taken of the relevant material considerations and none has been found that would justify overriding the adopted Development Plan. Accordingly the proposal is refused on the grounds identified below. Reasons 1 The proposal is contrary to Policy 19 Housing in the Countryside of the Perth and Kinross Local Development Plan 2 (2019) and the associated Housing in the Countryside Supplementary Guidance 2020 (SG) as the scale/mass/design of the dwelling proposed would not meet the criteria outlined under Category 1 which requires that new housing respect the character, scale and form of the group, should not detract from the visual amenity of the group and that a high standard of residential amenity has not been provided for existing dwellings. 2 The proposal is contrary to Policies 1A and 1B (Placemaking) of the Perth and Kinross adopted Local Development Plan 2 (2019) and the Placemaking Supplementary Guidance 2020, which all seek to ensure that all new developments contribute positively to the quality of the surrounding built and natural environment, and that all proposals complement its surroundings in terms of appearance, height, scale, massing, materials, finishes and colours. Due to a combination of the scale, height, massing and appearance of the dwelling compounded by the tapering nature of the site and siting adjacent to a modest cottage the proposal is not considered to contribute positively to the surrounding environment. Justification The proposal is in accordance with the Development Plan and there are no material reasons which justify departing from the Development Plan. Informatives N/A Procedural Notes Not Applicable. 67

SW Public General Please Note The applicant should be aware that we are unable to reserve capacity at our water and/or waste water treatment works for their proposed development. Once a formal connection application is submitted to Scottish Water after full planning permission has been granted, we will review the availability of capacity at that time and advise the applicant accordingly. Asset Impact Assessment According to our records, the development proposals impact on existing Scottish Water assets. The applicant must identify any potential conflicts with Scottish Water assets and contact our Asset Impact Team via our Customer Portal to apply for a diversion. The applicant should be aware that any conflict with assets identified may be subject to restrictions on proximity of construction. Please note the disclaimer at the end of this response. 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 contact Scottish Water at the earliest opportunity with strong evidence to support the intended drainage plan prior to making a connection request. We will assess this evidence in a robust manner and provide a decision that reflects the best option from environmental and customer perspectives. General notes: Scottish Water asset plans can be obtained from our appointed asset plan providers: Site Investigation Services (UK) Ltd Tel: 0333 123 1223 Email: sw@sisplan.co.uk www.sisplan.co.uk Scottish Water’s current minimum level of service for water pressure is 1.0 bar or 10m head at the customer’s boundary internal outlet. Any property which cannot be adequately serviced from the available pressure may require private pumping 74

SW Public General arrangements to be installed, subject to compliance with Water Byelaws. If the developer wishes to enquire about Scottish Water’s procedure for checking the water pressure in the area, then they should write to the Customer Connections department at the above address. If the connection to the public sewer and/or water main requires to be laid through land out-with public ownership, the developer must provide evidence of formal approval from the affected landowner(s) by way of a deed of servitude. Scottish Water may only vest new water or waste water infrastructure which is to be laid through land out with public ownership where a Deed of Servitude has been obtained in our favour by the developer. The developer should also be aware that Scottish Water requires land title to the area of land where a pumping station and/or SUDS proposed to vest in Scottish Water is constructed. Please find information on how to submit application to Scottish Water at our Customer Portal. Next Steps: All Proposed Developments All proposed developments require to submit a Pre-Development Enquiry (PDE) Form to be submitted directly to Scottish Water via our Customer Portal prior to any formal Technical Application being submitted. This will allow us to fully appraise the proposals. Where it is confirmed through the PDE process that mitigation works are necessary to support a development, the cost of these works is to be met by the developer, which Scottish Water can contribute towards through Reasonable Cost Contribution regulations. Non Domestic/Commercial Property: Since the introduction of the Water Services (Scotland) Act 2005 in April 2008 the water industry in Scotland has opened to market competition for non-domestic customers. All Non-domestic Household customers now require a Licensed Provider to act on their behalf for new water and waste water connections. Further details can be obtained at www.scotlandontap.gov.uk Trade Effluent Discharge from Non-Domestic Property: Certain discharges from non-domestic premises may constitute a trade effluent in terms of the Sewerage (Scotland) Act 1968. Trade effluent arises from activities including; manufacturing, production and engineering; vehicle, plant and equipment washing, waste and leachate management. It covers both large and small premises, including activities such as car washing and 75

SW Public General launderettes. Activities not covered include hotels, caravan sites or restaurants. If you are in any doubt as to whether the discharge from your premises is likely to be trade effluent, please contact us on 0800 778 0778 or email TEQ@scottishwater.co.uk using the subject “Is this Trade Effluent?". Discharges that are deemed to be trade effluent need to apply separately for permission to discharge to the sewerage system. The forms and application guidance notes can be found here. Trade effluent must never be discharged into surface water drainage systems as these are solely for draining rainfall run off. For food services establishments, Scottish Water recommends a suitably sized grease trap is fitted within the food preparation areas, so the development complies with Standard 3.7 a) of the Building Standards Technical Handbook and for best management and housekeeping practices to be followed which prevent food waste, fat oil and grease from being disposed into sinks and drains. The Waste (Scotland) Regulations which require all non-rural food businesses, producing more than 50kg of food waste per week, to segregate that waste for separate collection. The regulations also ban the use of food waste disposal units that dispose of food waste to the public sewer. Further information can be found at www.resourceefficientscotland.com 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.
