Coul Links Golf Course decision deferred

The Highland Council’s North Planning Applications Committee has deferred making a decision on the application submitted by Coul Links Ltd to develop a 18-hole golf course at Coul Links, north of Dornoch.

The deferral was agreed in order to allow the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) to fully appraise issues raised in an objection received by the Not Coul objector group. The applicant has responded to SEPA on these latest objections and SEPA needs time to give further consideration to the issues raised. 

It is proposed that a special meeting will take place in 2 weeks’ time for Members to be updated as to SEPA’s response and to allow the application to be determined.
