Development proposed by developers. This is really a developers' wish list at the moment. Aberdeen City council will be scoring the developments against some planning criteria in the next few months and will issue what ACC thinks are the most suitable developments in September 09. At this time there will be a public sonsultations period of about 6 weeks where you can submit your views.
Both schemes cover significant areas of the city and the proposals will affect these areas to varying degrees.
The Access from the North aspect of the consultation will identify a package of integrated transport measures which seek to improve access from the north to the city centre, from the sea to the Haudagain roundabout junction.
A series of open evenings to discuss proposals for the future development of areas of Aberdeen is to be held next month.
Developers have been invited to attend the meetings to discuss their development options with members of the public.
More than 120 development options for thousands of new homes city-wide have been received by the city council for sites across the city.

The MacKenzie Club Ltd has informed Aberdeen City Council that it has opted not to proceed because it has been unable to attract external investors to provide the financial backing for the proposed redevelopment.
TMC has told the council that the global economic downturn has deterred potential investors from financing the proposed hotel and golfing lodge developments, which were essential to make the scheme financially viable.
