The area of land identified in CR02 is 6.4ha or thereby, and allocated for Housing, Community, and Business with an indicative capacity of 50 housing units. Reference CR02: North West of Primary School, Inner Moray Firth Local Development Plan 2, page 130, published for consultation 25th March 2023.
This area to the North West of the Primary School is obligated to ensure that there is no adverse effect on Loch Flemington, whilst giving consideration to transport, road networks, and the potential of creating a community and/or small scale commercial space.
How would you envisage this corner of Croy being developed to the best benefit of the community? Would you continue with a housing theme, mixed with a wooded edge to soften the town boundary, with a path network to link to Loch Flemington, the school, and the village centre?
Do you see a focus on a commercial and community hub, with housing dispersed around this central focus on creating employment, a sustainable local community, and a drive for a digital economy facing the wider global network?
Maybe you think this area should be sensitively developed with minimal intervention to create a re-wilded corner of Croy, with accessible path networks to bring people and nature together in a sustainable and harmonious space?
However you would do it, we need to know to ensure your Local Place Plan is the foundation stone for the future development of Nairnshire. You can contact us at lpp@nicenairn.org.uk, or leave your comments below.
Scotia have totally failed to put a new play park in the current scheme as promised. The access routes are not suitable at all in thier current state let alone doing further building. As for mixed homes and businesses , what businesses. Are they thinking off? Totally ag as I at any further development the school is to small to cope with much more development and I would like to see this area left as is or re wilded
It would be great to develop this area for recreation. The previous comment mentioned the lack of a good play facilities being contributed by the Scotia developer. I would be good to see a path that could link this to a sustainable route included to link to the green network to Inveress this could also be developed to Cawdor and on to Nairn to inprove the current green network. It would be good to have a small pump track or cycling suitable surface for young bike riders and an open playing space for ball sports even a pitch would be good for a number of different recreation activity hockey, football, tennis, and basketball multi purpose surface.
