|
The following new documents have been submitted to the GCC planning department as the formal application for development of the Otago Lane site under the reference number: 10/03061/DC. Planning Documents: Design Statement Addendum (added 16-11-11) Planning Drawings: Proposed Site Plan – Sep-11 While it is under the same reference number as before, there are a few significant differences to the earlier plans, including: – Added height to Blocks B and D If you have already sent an objection letter under this reference number (10/03061/DC) it MAY be considered as part of the representations process on this occasion, however, any points you have made that the planning department feel the developer has addressed IN ANY WAY may mean your objection is disregarded. For this reason, if is imperative that you revise and resend any objections to take account of the designs in the new plans. |

We understand that there are limited minor changes to the previous application. For this reason, the latest application has been submitted under the previous reference number: 10/03061/DC.

New documents from community consultation (22/05/2010)

The following documents have been supplied as part of the community consultation: Summary of Consultation Issues You should also be aware that Glasgow City Council have considered that an Environmental Impact Assessment is not required for the Otago Lane development proposal. Further details can be found here. |
Changes to plans made during community consultation (21/02/2010)
|
Currently (as at 21/02/2010), we have not had visibility of the full plans that the developer intends to submit, however, we do have copies of the plans being used for the ‘community consultation’.

Landscape Layout

You will see from these documents that there are very few changes being proposed to the original (withdrawn) plans detailed below. These changes can be summarised as follows:
|
Block E – reduced a storey. Now 3 storeys. The building that would be built on top of Tchai-Ovna’s door has been reduced from 4 to 3 storeys. This was the block that was intended to have social housing, but there are no longer any plans to have any social housing in the development as this would eat into the profit of the developers. |
Block D – reduced a storey. Now 8 storeys. with the uppermost floor set back from the building line. The original plans were to be larger than the Unite building on Gibson Street, however, as this was built higher than was approved by planning, the Otago Lane development has been brought down to reflect the original intent of the Unite building. |
Block D – elevation treatment revised to re!ect replanning of building. Now more solid to void ratio. ‘Architect speak’ for smaller windows |
Landscaping providing a series of terraces from river to lane. The planted terrraces will not be accessible to the public. This is simply ground treatment to stop the need for a large retaining wall |
Block A corner reduced to 6 storeys on corner. Roof line now sitting within that of urban block. The flats at the corner of Otago Street and Otago Lane have been brought down to the same ridge height as the rest of the proposed development |
Block A top f!oor remodelled to present a pitched roof to Otago St, with eaves and ridge lines similar to the neighbouring buildings. There would still be new flats within the attic space of the current Otago Street flats. However, these attic flats will have no natural light from the Otago Street elevation as there will be no windows in the pitched roof. All natural light will be from the Otago Lane / River Kelvin elevation where there would still be a ‘box’ style construction. |
Block C top level remodelled to reduce scale to the lane. Basically no change from what was originally planned other than cosmetic changes |
Block C moved northward to increase width of the lane. The large circular tower block has been moved forward by 1-metre |
Block C finished floor level lowered to reduce scale to the lane. The height of the large circular tower block has been reduced by 1-metre |
Remodelled openspace with improved wildlife area and residents amenity space. Cosmetic changes to the amenity space for the potential new residents, not accessable to non-residents of the new development |
So as you can see, not a great deal to show for 3-months of ‘community engagement’. As before, the developer has completely disregarded any material comments from the local community and gone with the changes that will maximise his profit.

Original Plans (13/11/2009)
|
As the plans from the (now withdrawn) original application are available in the public domain, I have created links to these plans below Although the original planning application is technically withdrawn, these plans were being used unaltered for the community consultation process (as at 13/11/09), and the full summary of changes that have been communicated to OLCA are detailed above. There is a lot to wade through, however, the most relevant one is ‘910 Design & Access Statement’. |
