Planning committee
Decided by South Lanarkshire Planning Committee on 11 Aug 2026.
Refused
As officers recommended.
- Officers advised refusal because the site lacked policy support, had unsafe access, poor sustainable travel connections and unresolved tree and biodiversity impacts.
- Roads officers objected, while one representation raised concerns about the boundary, associated works, siting and the earlier application.
- The committee voted 13 to 7 to refuse the application for the reasons in the officer report.
