A housing developer says that it will appeal a decision to refuse its plan for 39 houses in Crosshouse.
East Ayrshire Council's planning committee approved officials' recommendations based on assessments around the potential noise and smell from a neighbouring farm which were deemed unrepresentative of the issue.
The application, for 30 private and nine affordable properties built near Holm Farm, resulted in 50 objections, including Crosshouse Community Council, Crosshouse Neighbours Placemaking group and the council's Environmental Health services.
