Seems like a ridiculous overdevelopment of the moor and a potential huge loss of amenity and wildlife habitat.
Just a glance at the Aberdeen Solicitors Property Journal will show you how many houses and flats are already on the market in this area.
I strongly ask you to oppose this.
Thank you for your comments, which I note. However I may not express an opinion about a live planning application before I am in the council chamber with all the relevant information. If I were to comment at this stage I would have to withdraw from the process (or land in trouble!).
