*Update* this application has been refused.

There is currently an application to use a small piece of land to the rear of Tassie Street, Carment Drive North Lane and Trefoil Avenue as a car park. The access to this is proposed to be from Tassie Street at the East End of Carment Drive North Lane.

Local residents in Carment Drive are united in their opposition to the loss of this informal green space.  A  local Resident from Tassie St has expressed concern about the potential damage to their building which is adjacent to the wall.  Another resident from the Kilmarnock Rd end of the lane, raised a concern about flood risk as there is already an issue with flooding. There are also concern about an incease in traffic and loss of privacy for neighbouring residents.

The reference for the application is 23/02602/PPP and you can view and comment on the application on the Glasgow City Council Planning Portal although we recommend that you email Planning.representations@drs.glasgow.gov.uk which is better especially if you have a long comment to make. We have a guide on how to make a planning comment which you may find helpful. The closing date for comments is Monday the 27th November 2023.

We are keen to know your views which we will use to inform our own comment on this application. Please email us – shawlandsstrathbungocc@gmail.com
