Respondent: Mr John Carroll

Representation Summary:

Biomedical Campus expansion into areas south of Ninewells development should be resisted. Ninewells was advertised as the boundary when houses went on sale. The land is liable to flood on that southern part. It has execellent biodiversity. It is green belt. Expanding the Campus by that amount will add jobs that will increase pressure on homes in the area. Will increase water supply needs in unpredictable ways.It will add to climate change in the buildings and the extra concreting over of land.
