Falkirk flooding concerns delay decision on plan for over 220 new homes

Falkirk councillors have agreed to delay a decision on a planning application for 229 houses in Bo'ness to allow more investigation around flooding issues.

Head of planning, Ian Dryden, told members of Falkirk Council' s planning committee that concerns had been raised about the capacity of an existing field drain on the site near Crawfield Road.

Given that the planning application had been called in by Councillor David Aitchison due to concerns over flooding on the site, members agreed to postpone the discussion until the next meeting.
