PLANNING The site of Middlefield Residential School site is identified in the adopted local plan (City Plan 2) for Residential and Supporting Uses (Development Policy Principle DEV 2). The Council supports the residential redevelopment of this site in principle subject to compliance with the detailed requirements of the Development Plan * This is a rare and prestigious west-end redevelopment opportunity located within the Glasgow West Conservation Area. The site is located within an inner urban area with base accessibility to public transport. In such circumstances City Plan 2 states that for residential redevelopment proposals, the density may vary from a minimum of 30 dwellings per hectare (DPH) to a maximum of 100 DPH. As the site is located in the Glasgow West Conservation Area massing and scale shall be informed through comprehensive townscape analysis. The Council will seek high standards of urban design, high quality materials and architecture befitting of the location. To the immediate west of the site there is a classic B-listed red sandstone Glasgow tenement at 28-30 Partickhill Road. An electricity sub-station is located within the site boundary on the corner of Partickhill Road and Hyndland Avenue and a sensitive design response to both will be required. The surrounding established scale is predominantly tenenmental. The development layout for this site shall be determined through careful masterplanning and due cognisance of the particular detailed requirements of policies RES 2 Residential Layouts and ENV 2 Open Space and Public Realm Provision. The City Council encourages open space solutions to be found on site and where this is not possible a developer contribution (to be secured by means of a legal agreement) will be required to meet any shortfall in compliance with policy. There is a willingness to consider proposals that complete the perimeter tenement block if this can be justified through a thorough townscape analysis of the surrounding urban form, providing an assessment and understanding of the sites importance in the Conservation Area, justifying the appropriateness of the proposed development and supported by a tree survey. The scope of any tree survey will require to be agreed as part of the statutory process. In relation to the tree specimens on site, should the solution be to remove these trees, as a mitigating measure a comprehensive replacement replanting scheme within the site, will be required by the Council. In addition, due to the key position on the corner of the site, it would be a strong preference that the substation is relocated to elsewhere on the site. Given the foregoing a design and access statement will be a prerequisite in support of a future planning application. 4
