A plan to build 81 homes and a play area in Stanley have been recommended for approval.
The 4.7 hectare site at Mill Brae is on the south-east corner of the Perthshire village just north-west of Stanley Mills.
Around a quarter of the development would be affordable housing – 20 out of 81.
There were no objections from statutory consultees.
And PKC received just one letter of representation to the plans. The main issues raised were: visual amenity, inappropriate land use, loss of trees, noise pollution and overlooking.
The development proposed comprises a mix of two to four-bedroomed properties.
Subject to conditions
Officers have recommended the application for approval subject to conditions.
These include: the planning permission only lasting three years – unless the development has been started within that timeframe – and conditions to prevent flood risk and ensure the site has effective drainage.
Perth and Kinross Council’s planning and placemaking committee will consider the plan – submitted by Ogilvie Homes – on Wednesday, February 22.
