    Back
    Closing date

    19/08/2024

    Auchinairn could be home to over 60 new affordable homes under a new proposal from East Dunbartonshire Council. 

    The Council, in partnership with CRGP Architects, Cruden Construction and the Council’s development partners hub West Scotland, are offering residents a chance to find out more about the plans at a drop-in event being held in August.  

    The site, to the east of Beech Road, includes the former Auchinairn Primary School and an adjacent area of vacant land, is presently used for open space, but was allocated in the Local Development Plan for residential development. 

    The proposal is to build 63 affordable homes for social rent on the site which would include houses and flats ranging from 1,2 and 3 bedroom properties. The development will be made possible through the allocation of grant funding from the Scottish Government’s Affordable Housing Supply Programme. 

    A drop-in event, organised by the Council’s Housing Investment Team, will give residents an opportunity to view the initial proposals, find out more and give their feedback. The event details are: 

    Date:            Thursday 15 August 2024 
    Time:            3.15pm to 7.15pm 
    Venue:          Auchinairn Community and Early Years Centre, Beech Rd Auchinairn, Bishopbriggs, G64 1NE 

    Experts will be on hand to answer questions and provide further details on the plans and drawings that are being proposed to help the Council deliver affordable homes in this area. 

    If you are unable to attend the drop-in event then you are still able to take part in the consultation. Please see the documents section for an overview of what is presently proposed for the site. Once you have looked over the plans, please complete a short survey so that our design team can consider your comments in more detail.

    The survey will be available from Monday 5 August until Monday 19 August 2024. 

    A second drop in event will take place on Thursday 26 September from 3-7pm at Auchinairn Community and Early Years Centre where feedback will be provided on the views gathered during this first event. A report will then be prepared, which will be submitted in support of the planning application. 

    Please note that comments made at this stage are not formal representations to the planning authority. Once a planning application is submitted a further opportunity to make representations to the planning authority on any development proposals will be made available.
