Planners have recommended 90 homes can be built in Neilston ahead of the final decision on a controversial proposal.
More than 1,000 objections have been sent to East Renfrewshire Council over Dawn Homes’ bid to develop land at Kirkton Road. Residents fear increased congestion on roads, more noise and pollution and the impact on amenity. They have also raised concerns over a lack of infrastructure, such as schools and shops, a loss of sunlight and privacy and the impact on the environment.
However, officials have said the plans, which were revised in November after talks with the planning department, can be approved, subject to a legal agreement securing the delivery of affordable housing. Councillors on the planning committee will meet tomorrow (Wednesday) afternoon to rule whether the proposal can go ahead.
