About this application

We hold 589 applications in total for the KY15 postcode area.

Why it was refused

  1. In the interests of Road Safety, the proposed development fails to demonstrate that safe and satisfactory vehicular access and turning arrangements can be provided for both the proposed dwellinghouse and the retained dwelling at Cairn Cottage. The proposed layout would remove existing vehicular turning facilities and fails to provide adequate turning space within either curtilage to enable vehicles to enter and leave the site in a forward gear. As a consequence, the development would be likely to result in vehicles reversing onto the A91 Carslogie Road, to the detriment of road safety and the free flow of traffic. The proposal therefore fails to provide a safe means of access and is contrary to Policy 13 (Sustainable Transport) and Policy 14 (Design, Quality and Place) of National Planning Framework 4 and the transport and placemaking objectives of Fife Council's Making Fife's Places guidance.
