11 Minerva Street Flats

9th December 2018

More flats coming to Finnieston…

Hampshire Pension Fund (their agent is Iceni Projects Ltd) has submitted a proposal of Application notice for the demolition of the existing building at 11 Minerva Way, the Nuffield Health Gym (formerly Virgin Active). 

In its place we expect residential flats. Let’s hope the developer ensures all new residents are aware that on-street parking permits will not be available with their purchase.

We await the announcement of when and where the formal plans will be displayed. 

We will keep you updated.

Our Response to the Sandyford Student Flats Appeal

14th November 2018

Our Chair, has written to MSP Sandra White in relation to the student flats being built in Sandyford Street.

There is a Planning Bill currently going through its later stages in the Scottish Parliament and it appears that the Scottish government is still setting its face against a Community Right of Appeal, influenced by the claims of developers that it would clog up the system, leading to longer delays in getting decisions.

If every intended community appeal was sifted through the Planning Reporters’ office, to eliminate those that were not properly related to the local or other plan governing the original application, and even with the applicant given the right to be heard, this would be sufficient.

This is better than the present situation where we (the Community) have no come back and must remain silent.

Let us know your thoughts
