SUPPLEMENTARY REPORT NO. 1
1.0 INTRODUCTION 
The purpose of this report is to update Members on late additional objections that have been
received following the publication of the main officer report. These further submissions have
been placed on public access.
2.0  Additional Objections Received
• Jacquelyn and Norman McInally-Gatensby (Dated 14.03.25)
• Scott Elliot (Dated 15.03.25)
• Dr Julie E Lang (Dated 16.03.25)
Members are also requested to note that a further representation by Jackie Baillie MSP
received on 14.03.25.
Officers consider that having reviewed the content of these late objections, there is not
considered to be a requirement to alter the recommendation of the main officer report as the
matters of objection raised which are material to the determination of the application have
been addressed in the main officer report. 
However, Officers do wish to draw Members attention to the criticism that a Hearing is not
recommended in the main report of handling despite the very high number of objectors. The
Council’s guidance on pre-determination hearings is clear that the requirement for a hearing
should not be triggered based on the number of representations alone but also whether or not
this additional procedure would add value to elected members understanding of the matters
relevant to the decision. It is on this basis and having regard to the evaluation of planning
matters in the main report that the proposal is recommended for approval by officers without
a requirement for a discretionary pre-determination hearing.
Ultimately the issue of whether or not to hold a hearing remains a matter for the elected
members of the PPSL Committee to consider prior to reaching a decision on the application.
