Update Read the Planning Panel Report (see link below). It says..."The application is recommended for approval,... despite the site falling within an "area of significant protection" and not being within an "Area Of Search" as defined by Stirling Council's Supplementary Guidance for Renewable Energy Developments (Wind Turbines)"

An application for 2 large wind turbines close to Dunblane is being recommended for approval by the Council's Planning officers. The site is just off the Auchinlay Road, overlooking Ashfield. The application is to go to the Planning and Regulation Panel on 24th February 2015.

We are running out of copies of Dunblane’s Green Travel Maps  

Many thanks to all those who completed our Dunblane Map survey; so many positive comments showed a high demand and wide variety of use and benefits for locals of all ages, visitors and businesses. So funding applications are sent out; to update the maps, print 10,000 Green Travel Maps, renew the online licence, and perhaps develop a business sheet version. See full report here.
