Strathard residents are concerned that ongoing flooding issues will put a brake on future development in the area.
It follows a Stirling Council objection to a change of use planning application for a caravan site at Ledard Farm off the B829 Aberfoyle-Inversnaid road.
Planners state in the objection that the proposed caravan site ‘lies close to an area of high flood risk and is currently predicted to have no safe ingress or egress route according to the SEPA flood risk maps’ adding: “With flooding from multiple sources predicted to inundate the road preventing vehicular access by people and the emergency services”.
