Foulden holiday park plan decision deferred
- Published
Councillors have deferred a decision on plans for a major holiday lodge development in the Scottish Borders.
The holiday park would be created on land near Foulden in Berwickshire.
It would see 52 lodges built along with an office building, reception area and shop.
Planning approval was being recommended but planning committee councillors agreed to make a site visit before making a decision on the fate of the proposals.
Opponents claim the project would be detrimental to the environment and an over-development of the site.
Foulden, Mordington and Lamberton Community Council has opposed the scheme, claiming it would damage the character and visual amenity of the village.
However, planning officials have advised the scheme get the go-ahead with a series of conditions regarding landscaping, lighting and the types and colours of materials to be used on the properties.
