Proposed waste recycling facility
WH Malcolm Construction is planning to convert its base in South Street, Scotstoun into a waste management site to the detriment of the area. A protest campaign was organised by SCARA and this was soon amalgamated into a wider campaign with Scotstoun Community Council and several other other Community Councils in the area affected. We understand that close to one thousand signatures protesting against this plan were gathered for a petition presented to the city council.
Residents wishing to be involved in the protest should contact SCARA by email or Scotstoun Community Council at scotscoco@gmail.com
Update November 2017
It is now over three years since the issue of the original planning application notice and there is still no outcome. The latest position is that the Planning and Architectural Division at the Scottish Government has told us that they hope to deal with all appeals within two months (by 3rd December 2017 ?) and certainly within three months (by early January 2018 or later because of the holiday period ?) but we have heard much the same on a number of occasions before now. We shall update further in due course.
