This project is a pilot study for research in sustainable planning in Scotland, with

a particular focus on sustainable housing development. We have an opportunity to

collaborate with European partners in Spain, Hungary, and Norway, and hence to broaden

the scope to a European-wide study of sustainable development. It is almost universally

recognised that the quality of our natural and built environment is under pressure from

population growth and the market forces that determine most decisions concerning

development. In order to accommodate its growing population, the Scottish Government

has plans to build 35,000 new houses per year over the next 10 years, which at present

densities would cover an area the size of Edinburgh. It is also recognised that there is

a critical need to identify and adopt sustainable strategies for development in order

to address this pressure. Additionally, there have been recent changes in planning

law and recent publication of Government planning policy documents calling for

sustainable development that maintains and protects the qualities of the natural and built

environment.

The Planning (Scotland) Act 2006 calls for the replacement of local authority Structure

Plans by new Strategic Development Plans. To deliver this change Scottish Government

has grouped local authorities into larger Strategic Development Planning Authorities

(SDPAs) and tasked them with preparing Strategic Development Plans (SDPs) for their

areas. The Tayplan SDP is currently being developed by the four local authorities of Perth

& Kinross, Dundee, Angus, and Fife. These plans are intended to be 20 year projections

– a spatial strategy and vision of Scotland in 20 years time - as opposed to the 5 year

projections of the current Structure Plans. It is also intended that the local authorities

work together for the mutual benefit of their constituents rather than compete for the

same resources and development income. In its document Designing Places (2001),

the Government promotes sustainability to the forefront of the section ‘The qualities of

successful places’. The National Planning Framework for Scotland (2009) lists five critical

issues with respect to sustainable development: climate change, transport, energy, waste,

biodiversity, new technologies. It also announces on its inside cover five ‘headlines’

that will shape Government policy in delivering its vision of Scotland for the year 2030:

wealthier and fairer, greener, smarter, safer and stronger, healthier. ‘Health and wealth’

- creating environments that promote the health and healthy lifestyles of its inhabitants

and that offer opportunities for wealth creation – are perhaps the overarching concerns of

sustainability.

Although Scotland is committed at a policy level to sustainable development, this policy

has not yet robustly impacted upon planning design guidelines, at least not at the level of

urban and rural design, not – in other words – at the level of the aggregation, arrangement,

and scaling of housing units on a site. While considerable research has gone into the

development of green technology and green housing, relatively little has gone into green

or sustainable ways of arranging such units on a site, in relation to public transport, in

relation to resource, waste, and energy flows, in relation to natural and man-made features

of the environment, in relation to each other. There is – in other words - little in the way of

studies of sustainable development morphologies.

In this two week scoping and feasibility study, we began by producing survey plans

of Scotland, which collected information on transport and energy (roads, railroads,

power stations), natural features (rivers, forests, mountains, national forests and parks,

coastlines), and settlements. In order to limit the scope and go into greater detail, we

produced plans of the Tayplan Area with similar information.

We compared settlements with respect to size, density, and proximity to transport in

the area of the Perth central local plan, which is one of the components of the Tayplan

area. This is intended to be the scoping study and background information gathering for


5

a much larger study in which we compare design guidelines and their implementation

in developments across all 32 local authorities of Scotland. We were asked to do this by

Architecture + Design Scotland, who are interested in measuring the degree to which

local authority design guidelines reflect the bio and cultural diversity of Scotland – a key

feature of sustainability - or the degree to which they reflect an imposed sameness across

these diverse regions. This is not simply about maintaining diversity for diversity’s sake.

If development is going to be sustainable, it must be purpose designed to fit each ‘niche’

landscape, and to take advantage of local resources and conditions including but not

limited to climate, weather, materials, building skill and practices. For our part, this is the

preliminary study for prototyping a series of models for development that reflect the three

generic development situations (inner city densification, edge of town radial expansion,

out of town/newtown developments) applied to local conditions across Scotland. If we are

going to be sustainable, we cannot have more of the same. We must imagine new ways of

living.

We then selected 4 sites in the Perth Central Area Plan which are scheduled for new

housing. Our intention was to select at least one site from each of the three generic

urban conditions, hence one inner city site, two edge of town sites, and one out of town

or village site. For each site, we produced plan diagrams for land use, housing densities

(low, medium and high), and relation to transport. We have included in this report an

abridged selection of the design guidelines and policy statements in the local plan relating

to housing development. We focused on density, because the information was accessible

and easily represented, and because density has the capacity to become an overarching

measure encompassing most other issues including relations to transport, open space and

other amenities, etc. Also the UK cities are among the least dense in Europe, and arguable,

a policy on efficient land use has to address the tendency of modern cities to sprawl, and

what may be the UK’s particular predilection for sprawl.

* * * * *

We used a simple graphic to represent low, medium, and high density development on

each site (10, 30, and 100 units/hectare). We placed 100 square metre rectangles on

the sites to produce simple demographic arrays of rectangular dots that visualise the

implications of the different densities (no claim is here made to respond to site conditions

and hence to propose schematic site design solutions). Then we identified low, medium,

and high density areas of Perth and montaged these at the same scale into our sites with

no effort to graft them into their context. In this way we were able to visualise the densities

with a credible sense of urban texture.

As seemingly serendipitous as this montage process may seem, it raises questions that

go to the heart of any urban design process. It raises the question of where we get our

imagery from, on both the individual and institutional level: the archive of sources,

references, and stock solutions, that drive our design thinking, decisions, and choices.

Indeed, as one would expect, the Perth Local Area Plan refers to Perth itself as a baseline

in too many places to cite: our montage plans are the visual counterpart to this. More

fundamentally, it raises the question of an appropriate cartography - a cartographic

language of forms and structures - for studying sustainability and then implementing it

at the urban design level. To use Perth to repopulate itself with housing is to appropriate

a basic recursive grammar that any rap star or dj-vj in any club would instantly recognise

as fundamental to his/her creative process. A key component of sustainability is the

incorporation of local context and conditions into the morphologies of new developments,

and hence to maintain bio and cultural diversity across a diverse region. In this regard

montage is nothing if not a graphic technique incorporating forms and structures. We

propose here – tentatively, speculatively, as is appropriate for such early stages - to use

Perth or any region to regenerate itself, by developing montage techniques for using local

form to generate new form.

This work was limited by time and resources; no claim is made on its behalf to being

comprehensive or conclusive in either scope or the number of design determinants that we

looked at. Indeed, we have not yet reached conclusions. Our aim, not yet arrived at, is to

produce a catalogue of urban and rural design morphologies for sustainable development.

Future research will:

• addresstheA+DSbrief,forwhichweneedatleastonecomparatorinanother

local authority like the Highlands and Islands, which has a different local climate,

geography, geology, culture, and different patterns of development; or even a comparator

within our present local authorities, the highlands identified within our Tayplan area plans;

• lookatsuchcrucialdeterminantsaspatternsoffinancingandothermarketforces,

local resources for energy and building materials, energy distribution, density of road use,

employment (i.e. commuting), and the like;

• lookatotheraspectsofdevelopmentmorphology,includingpatternsof

development and housing unit aggregations, and the structure of public and open space;

• enableustovisitthedifferentlocalesandsitestorecordtheirqualities,andto

liaise more closely with local authorities.

The current study has set out a baseline for future research, in the sense that it has set

out areas that need to be examined, and it has made a firm commitment to the graphic

nature of the project: visualising quality as well as quantity; and begun to develop graphic

techniques and strategies for comparison. It has also indicated the magnitude of the

project, in terms of time, file sizes, processor speeds, printing costs, and the like. For

instance, if three junior researchers produced this amount of work in two weeks, using

digimap™ file resources, we would probably need these three researchers for 20 weeks to

cover the whole Tayplan area in the depth indicated in the bullet points above.

In addition to the design policies in the Perth Central Area Plan – some of which is

reproduced below - we also referenced:

• ScottishGovernment,Pan 67 Housing Quality and Pan 76 New Residential

Streets, which should be read together, both of which follow on from:

Part 2: Perth City Centre

CH 1 Bus Station/Leonard Street Housing

Overview

9.5 The thrust of the Plan for the central area is to build upon past successes and to

consolidate the role of Perth City Centre as the heart of the Council area and a wider

hinterland….

9.6 In particular this means:… developing detailed design policies for new buildings.

(pp37-8)

Policies

9.7 The policy framework identified in this section seeks to promote mixed-use

development and establish a balance between potentially conflicting uses. It recognises

four distinct land use zones within the central area:

•Citycentreprimeretailarea,….

•Citycentremixeduses,….

•Citycentreresidentialuses,whereencouragementwillbegiventogroundfloor

residential uses (residential uses are encouraged on the upper floors elsewhere in the city

centre) and …the protection of residential amenity….

•RetailPark,…retentionofthelargeretailunits.(p38)

Policy 4 City Centre Residential Areas

Insert Map 1 identifies areas where residential use and amenity will be protected and

encouraged at both ground floor level and above. There will be a presumption against non-

residential uses in these areas…. (p40)

Part 2: Perth City Excluding City Centre

PH 1 Murray Royal Housing

PH 3 Oakbank Road Housing

PH 4 Cleeve Gardens Housing

Overview

10.3 The key issues within the city are:

•Toprovidesufficientlandcapableofearlydevelopmentintherightlocationsfor

employment purposes.

•Tomakebestuseofwindfallandbrownfieldsites…,recognisingtheneedtoprotect

employment land and land for affordable housing. The Plan proposes a mixed-use zoning

on key sites… to respond to changing market conditions.

•Toprotecttheamenityofthecityasawholebyresistingproposalswhichwouldchange

the amenity of established residential areas and result in ‘town cramming’ and the loss of

valuable open space.

•Toprotecttheexistingpatternofneighbourhoodshoppingcentres….

•Toaddresstrafficissues,…especiallyattheA9/A85interchange,whereradicalroad

solutions are likely to be required…. (p50)

Policy 14 Residential Areas

General

Inset Map 2 identifies areas of residential and compatible uses…. Ancillary development

such as corner shops and community facilities will be permitted in residential areas.

Changes from such ancillary uses will be resisted unless there is demonstrable market

evidence that the existing use is no longer viable….

Open Space

Small areas of private and public open space will be retained where they are of recreational


13

or amenity value. (p51)

Policy 18 Mixed Use Areas

Inset Map 2 identifies mixed land use areas which are suitable for a variety of compatible

uses including: ….

Note: Residential development may also be an acceptable use providing it is a

subordinate component of a mixture of uses on a site and it is compatible

with adjoining land uses. (pp52-3)

Policy 23 Open Space/Recreation

Inset Map 2 identifies areas of public and private open space, which are to be retained….

(p54)

14 Landward Area (Proposals Map)

The Landward Area includes Green Belt around Perth

VH 37 & VH 38 St Madoes/Glencarse

14.2 The key objective of the Plan is to manage the countryside in a way that helps to

sustain the rural economy and services, protect important landscapes, including the Perth

Green Belt, from inappropriate and irreversible development, recognising the pressures for

development in the vicinity of the cities of Perth and Dundee.

14.4 The Plan gives encouragement to proposals for rural development including

agricultural diversification and tourist development and particular encouragement is given

to reusing brownfield sites in the countryside (such as former sawmills) for a variety of

uses.

Policy 47

The Council will normally only support proposals for the erection of individual houses in

the countryside which fall into at least one of the following categories:

1. Building Groups

(i) Development within existing small groups where sites are contained by housing or

other buildings

(ii) Development within or adjacent to established building groups which have compact

nucleated shapes creating an identifiable “sense of place”.

2. Renovation or Replacement of Houses

3. Conversion or Replacement of Non-Domestic Buildings

Note: The design principles set out in the Council’s “Guidance and Design of Houses in

Rural Areas” will be used as a guide for all development outwith Perth City.

15 Policies Applicable to the Entire Local Plan Area (pp179ff)

Policy 50 Development Criteria

All developments will be judged against the following criteria:

(a) the sites should have a landscape/townscape framework capable of absorbing or…

screening the development…;

(c) the development should be compatible with its surroundings in land use terms and

should not result in a significant loss of amenity to the local community;

(d) the local road, path and public transport network should be capable of absorbing the

additional traffic…;

(e) where applicable, there should be sufficient spare capacity in drainage, water and

education services to cater for the new development; and

(f) buildings and layouts of new developments should be… energy efficient.


14

Policy 51 Design and Landscaping

The Council will require high standards of design…:

(a) …incorporating energy-efficient technology and materials; and

(b) avoiding the use of extensive under-building on steeply sloping sites.

Note: …the Council’s “Guidance and Design of Houses in Rural Areas” for all development

outwith Perth City.

Policy 52 Design Statements

Design Statements will normally be required… to accompany a planning application…

Note: Further guidance is contained in Pan 68 Design Statements

Policy 53 Landscape Treatment

Details of landscape treatment should be submitted with development proposals including,

where appropriate, boundary treatment, treatment of settlement edge, and impact on key

views….

Policy 58 Noise Pollution

The location of sources of high noise levels near to existing or proposed noise-sensitive

development or uses will not be permitted…. [P]roposals for noise-sensitive development

will not be allowed in areas exposed to excessive noise.

Note: noise-sensitive development is defined as housing, hospitals, educational

establishments, offices and hotels….

Policy 59 Light Pollution

The Council will not grant consent for proposals that would result in unnecessary and

intrusive light pollution….

Infrastructure

Recommendation 1

Scottish Water is requested to ensure that drainage capacity is available to serve the

current and future development needs of Perth.

Recommendation 2

…[T]he Council recommends to Scottish Water that… improvements are carried out to the

following waste water treatment facilities:….

Policy 65 Affordable Housing

…{T]he preferred type of affordable housing, in order of

preference, is:

(a) social housing either for rent, or through shared equity schemes; or

(b) subsidised or discounted housing for sale; or

(c) private sector rented accommodation,….

Policy 70 Open Space Provision

The Council will seek the provision of appropriate areas of informal and formal recreational

open space as an integral part of new housing development.

Formal

…[M]eet the minimum standards of the National Playing Fields Association of 2.43 ha per

1,000 population,….

Informal

The appropriate level of informal recreation open space and creation of access networks

will need to be assessed for each site,…. …carried out under Policy 4.

Off Site Provision

It may be appropriate for open space provision to be made on land outwith the

development site;….


15

Maintenance

Policy 74 Roads and Transport

Suitable provision for parking and,… public transport must be made in all new

developments…. The Council’s “Roads Development Guide”.

Policy 75 Roads and Transport

The Council will monitor public transport… and it will encourage and promote… the

improved use of the rail network for both passenger and freight traffic.

Policy 76 Cycling

The Council will encourage proposals which make cycling…, with particular attention being

paid to the provision of appropriate access and parking facilities.

Environment and Nature Conservation

Policy 81

Development will only be permitted on a site designated… under the Habitats or Birds

Directives (Special Areas of Conservation and Special Protection Areas) or a Ramsar Site,

where the appropriate assessment indicates….

Policy 82

The Council will not grant consent… on: sites supporting species mentioned in… the

Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981…; …the European Community Habitats Directive or the

European Community Wild Birds Directive;….

Policy 83

Development which would affect a National Nature Reserve or a Site of Special Scientific

Interest will not normally be permitted except….

Policy 84

The Council will not normally grant consent for any development that would have an

adverse effect on sites of local nature conservation or geological interest….

Policy 85

The Council will seek to protect and enhance habitats of local importance to nature

conservation, including grasslands, wetlands and peat-lands and habitats that support

rare or endangered species. The Council will take account of the Tayside Local Biodiversity

Action Plan (LBAP)….
