Conservation areas are areas of special
architectural and/or historic interest, the character or appearance of which it
is desirable to preserve or enhance. The purpose of a conservation area is to
ensure that new development or alterations will not have a negative impact on
the existing character of the area.
When an item came to the City Development Committee
seeking consent to consult on the Broughty Ferry conservation appraisal I
suggested slightly extending the proposed boundary to include parts of Broughty
Ferry which I believe to be typical of the existing character of the area and
would sit comfortably within the Broughty Ferry Conservation Area, such as
taking in more of The Esplanade to include The Glass Pavilion.
If you have a few spare moments please have a
look at the consultation document and let the City Development Department know what
you think about it.
