LOP BID : ALEXANDER PARK

BACKGROUND

Alexander Park has been the home of Stonehaven and Banchory AC for over 15 years.

Jt is an extensive grass field extending to c. 1.6Ha. The site lies to the west of the Glassel

Road, while the lnchmarlo Driving Range lies to the north, and the golf course lies to the

west. The A93 main Aberdeen to Braemar road runs to the south of the site.

The land slopes down slightly from north to south, so it is not ideal for running.

There Is also significant water run-off from the land above the site, and the site is often wet.

There are no changing facilities on site, and the nearest parking is at Burnett Park, which lies

on the east side of the Glassel Road.

The current facilities are accordingly significantly less than optimal.

The site currently lies with in the settlement envelope of Banchory, but is protected, along

with Burnett Park to the east, for recreational development.

CURRENT OPPORTUNITY

As set out in the 'bid' to adjust the terms of the allocation for (2017 LOP) Site OPl, there is

currently an opportunity for the athletics field and running track to be relocated to

Woodend, where new changing facilities could be shared with Deeside Rugby Club.

An indicative plan of how the athletics facilities could be incorporated on that site, has been

lodged along with that 'bid'.

PROPOSAL

Detailed discussions have been held with the SBAC about the potential benefits of

relocation, and the Club are 'in principle' willing to relocate to Woodend.

This is subject to an improved athletics facility being provided.

This has been casted, and it seems that a budget of c.£ 1m wil l be required. The

development accordingly requires cross- funding.

The change of zoning proposed at Alexander Park, from recreation to housing would provide

the required cross- funding. A development of C.40 new homes has been shown on the

indicative plan accompanying the LOP Bid.

A residential development in that location can be readily serviced, access is convenient- off

the Glassel Road, and the site would not be prominent in the landscape. It is well screened

by existing woodland on the Glassel Road as well as on the A93.

It is accordingly suggested that the change sought would have a significant sporting benefit, while providing a reasonably sized residential development opportunity, which

would have little environmental impact, and be eminently deliverable.
