There was submitted Report No 60-2005 by the Director of Planning and Transportation with regard to selected recommendations in the Report of the Public Local Inquiry to examine objections to the Finalised Dundee Local Plan Review, which would be material considerations in respect of a number of planning applications for major foodstore and related proposals that would be considered at Public Local Inquiries commencing in March 2005.
