Quotes from the GCC Planning Document
Published on the 9th of November
"The design of the proposed community health and care centre, form of construction and material palette is of the hightest architectural quality and is located such that it will provide a positive city image and create a strong sense of place."
"The proposed building is sensitively designed to respect the site topography ...the building height and alignment take their lead from the surrounding dwellings on Craigton Road and will provide a distinctive architectural termination to the street."
"...... it is considered that the proposed development will make a significant and positive contribution to the regeneration of the surrounding area. It will be a bold building of striking architectural design and will compliment rather than detract from the area.......it is therefore recommended that full planning permission is granted."
